Default What Turbo size? Mentors Needed!

New plans , I decided to sleeve the block to 84mm with 9:1 compression,there is no point on building the engine for boost without this procedure. I have in mind a gt35R for my goals,but i still need input on the specs.

I thank everybody for ur input,I love Honda-Tech and who supports it.


Im need input on what size of turbo fits better my lifestyle, its going to be for a B18c 9:1 C.R ,port and polish head,ctr cams, ill be driven this car almost everyday. im looking to push 400 whp. advise is needed. thank u.

Just about any 50 trim and up T3/T4E will do. You should also go with a .63 hotside and a stage3 turbine wheel.

50-trim's have made 400 WHP on DSM's with poor flowing mitsu exhaust housings, it's attainable.

bump for some more info...looking into this as well, Im trying to make 350whp daily driven with a similar setup (9.1 or 9.5 comp, no sleeving just rods and pistons) I was also looking into something not too expensive and will have decent spool time for a fun daily. Through my research I think ive almost settle for a gt32r or a to4e (50 or 57 trim which ever yields the best spool time w/o loosing its steam up top) , anyone with insight would help (or just to correct me, im a noob to boost)

This isn't a stock DSM though, this is a mildly build GSR. I wouldn't even consider running a 60 trim with those goals.

i'd like to know how hard you'd have to push a t3/t4 60 trim to make 450hp, this is what i cannot decide. get a smaller turbo and push it to its max to make the power i want. or run a bigger turbo and not push it as hard.

If you are coming from the NA world, a GT28RS or a GT30R would be great choice. A GT28rs will spool before 4200 and pull hard til readline. I dont recommend a SC61, I had one and if your goal is only 400hp, the lag will kill you.

I agree with Salt.

T3/T04E 57 trim is great for that power level. Its proven.
