Default Turbo suggestion, daily driven B16.

Just like the topic says, I need you guys to recommend me a turbocharger for a daily driven Si.
The block will remain stock until I actually blow something, which I don't plan on doing of course.
Hondata as a fuel management.
I don't plan on going more than 250whp.

go to turbonetics website and look at compressor maps for various turbos, do the calculations and see where you land on the chart, choose the most efficent turbo for what you want out of it....probablly a smaller t3/t4 turbo would be good, but do the calculations and see which turbo works best....you seem to have yur goal set now you just have to make the right choice to achieve it

I had a t3/to4b on my old b16....spooled good and made great topend power...But I would say you could go smaller for quicker spool time since you only want 250whp.

From what I've heard/read T3 is very good for small displacement engies.
T3/T04 would be better if I wanted to upgrade later on down the road.
Waiting for some more suggestions, thanks guys.

I'll be using a t3/t04b .48 a/r, 52 trim. quick spool and still has a good top end.

This is going to be on a B16 as well.

T3 super 60
excellent street turbo...
Quick spool up and enough flow for ~325hp
