Default Turbos, hmm ?? which one

Im debating running a t3/to4e 57 which is pretty common among the b series. But i have been looking at sc34, gt32e. I know precision runs a 360 degree bearing vs garrets 270 but i dont know wtf thats gonna help. Max ill be running is 8psi off a 44mm wastegate. 275-300whp goal, i rock blox type a cams.

Any advice would be great.

the thrust bearing type isn't going to really help you power wise, and for the purpose of your car (street) it won't make much of a difference for durability in your case either. Any one of those will work quite well, though naturally I'm biased towards the GT3255B.

Knowing your engine configuration will help as well.

which turbo is the gt3255b? im not very familiar with precisions lineup.

gsr motor, blox intake manifold, type r tb, either gonna be ported or changed to 64-65mm. probably going with go auto ramhorn, 3inch dp, 3 inch exhaust, 2 or 2.5" to intercooler, 2.5 to intake mani. blox type a cams.

I can get a good price on a sc34 or an sc34 with billet wheel, i did not know the sc34 came with a billet wheel, heard it spools very well and will make power i need

GT3255b isn't precision. ("GT" should kinda clue you into that..) the 5557 is the billet equivalent to the S34
