Default Turbo b20b with drag kit- what turbo? block shaving required?

Just as the title says, with a b20 motor and a drag mani what size turbos need trimming of the block webbing and which ones do not?

I'm not sure what compressor cover is on the turbo that comes with the drag kit, but you will need to notch the webbing to fit it.

Im aware of that, but ive seen a few people say that the turbo they used (non kit turbo) with the drag mani didnt require block shaving-

probably turbos with a compressor housing smaller than .57 or t3/t3 turbos...

prob .50 trim.. not sure. but any turbo worth putting on a B20 would require trimming of the webbing.


were they mounting the compressor facing passenger side? on the ones that didnt have to cut?


out of curiosity.. why do you care which ones you have to or not have to.

They were mounted hotside on the driverside- it really was strange to me- the reason why I care is Im reluctant to cut the block after doing it on my gsr block its just a bad feeling lol especialy when your selling it. I know i shouldnt let that be a factor bc it would suck to have a improperly sized turbo on it- any recomendations on what size to go with tho? I have a b16 tranny and was thinking the standard t3to4e 57 trim .63ar such as this-http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T3-T4-T04E-Turbocharger-63-A-R-Turbo-INTEGRA-D16-Golf_W0QQitemZ250146918073QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item 250146918073

along with a oil restrictor would work good
