Garrett T3/T04E



60 trim T04E compressor in .70 A/R comp. hsg
4.0" inlet w/ 2.5" outlet dia
Oil/Air cooled center hsg, with 76 trim (T31) T3 hi flow turbine wheel in .63 A/R T3 turbine housing with 4 bolt flange outlet

These are the specs in the auction, seems like too many numbers to me, lol. Looking to make around 350hp, stock b18c1 for now running 8-10 psi, more psi when i rebuild. would this turbo be too laggy for what im going for? Im not looking for an instant spool, i dont mind a little lag

 

way too much lag. My sc61 has a 57 trim and full boost at 5k, so i dont think you would want that turbo.

 

i was planning on a sc61...found this for much cheaper tho

 

lets see. the sc61 has a much larger compressor wheel than this turbo does. so automatically he'll have full boost before you will.

I say get it, the older 60trim's will suppot about 475hp with proper tuning

 

you get what you pay for thats why i chose to go the precision route. And this turbo is good up 680hp.

 

Im not a rich man either...350 for the t3/t04e or 700 for the sc61

 

it's a good turbo. its pretty much a SC34 but with a .70 compressor housing. (i.e 60 trim .60AR compressor housing/ stage 3 turbine)

 

heres another shot of it...that compressor side looks tiny

 

basically what you have found is a t3/t04s
what makes a a t3/t04e is the compressor housing

 

i dont know if its me but compare the housing OUTLETS on each picture. those are 2 different housings....the one with the exhaust side shot shows a precision housing with the OUTLET that is smaller than the housing and the first pic the compressor outlet is flared like the garrets. anyone? seems fishy.

 

its just the pics. sort of. on the housing that are flared, the compressor inlet side of the outlet is flared out, while the backplate side of the housing looks normal.

 

You'll be fine w/ this turbo. it should start spooling around 3600rpm.
