Default Which would be better?

Ok i have a b16 (built) turbine just blew last night so i need to replace asap. I'm wondering how these turbines compare to eachother in the catagoryies: max hp, spool time, and streetability.

T3/T04B, S-Trim, Stage 3, with a .63 a/r

T3/To4e, .63 A/R Turbine Housing Stage III Turbine
.50 A/R Compressor Housing 50 Trim Compressor

this one from ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33742

or this one from ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33742

I want something that will spool up rather quickly and allow to maintain my current hp rating of around 275@14.7psi
thx

If you have a Built B16a MATT3T4 has a brand new Turbonetics T3/T04B with a 60-1 wheel stage 5 .63 A/R ..this turbo is great for top end power and has the T3/t04b housing so poeple will think you have a small turbo... the stealth look..

also he have access to a Brand new T3/T04B S-trim stage 3 .63 A/R Great low to mid power... the turbo on the ebay looks remaufatuced.. the bolts dont look clean and the comp side looks like its been taken apart and has not brackets holding the housing together.. take a good look at stuff before you buy...

Yeah i've been talkin to Matt i just don't know which one to get. Which will be the most efficient running at 1bar? How slow will the spool up be on the to4b 60-1 wheel? With the s-trim stage 3 will it spool up really quick? How will the top end be? Will it drop off in comparison to the 60-1 wheel?

Yes true ,Tony1 but he is boosting 14psi... at that PSI with the t3 60-1 he should be at 400hp+ he said,its built motor...!!

Well i'd like to make more power than that. To be honest i was a little dissapointed that i only made 275 at the wheels boosting 14.7psi. Would the 60-1 stage 5 wheel lag like a ****?

What i meant by that is, i didn't want to end up with a smaller turbo. A larger turbo is fine though. I'm just stuck, I don't know what i should get and could use a little more info. If anyone knows how the dyno curves looks for either/both turbos that might help. Also at 14.7psi what should i expect to see hp wise? Thx

So would the 60-1 stage 5 to4b be good for more hp than my current rating(275@14.7psi)? Also how would the lag be with this turbo? Currently i get full boost around 5500-6000, but that's w/2.5" dp and with the new turbo I plan on having a 3" dp made to run into my thermal 3" exhaust.
