Default t3 60-1 ls/vtec

looking to bu a 60-1 curious to know if you guys think this will be arlight for street use say 10 psi for now since it is out of itts max efficient area then about 15psi + at the trackor would i be better off with a t3 t4e

Any help would be great also any personal experience with the 60-1 would be nice spool time ad what not thanks

I think 9 psi makes it barely in the efficiency range.

you'd be much better off wit ha 63/60 ar t3/to4e vs a t3/60-1

a t3/60-1 just STARTS to get into its efficiency range at 15 psi.... its rellay made for about 18-25 psi.

t3/to4e will yield very nice streetability at 10 psi and at 15 psi you'll be perfectly in its range. the t3/to4e 63 exhaust and 60 compressor stage III will be efficient at 10-20... a much broader range with decent power output vs the t3/60-1 that will give you some awesome power but only within its 18-25 range

i dunno if that made sense to you, if you have some questions, PM me

Get T3/T4E, you'l be happy. If u r not looking to make some serious power, 60-1 is useless. I just bought 60-1 off a guy who bought t3/t4 cause it was too big for his car.

I have a 60-1 and it is very laggy at low boost ,but hi boost is fine.. so if it is for street use get the smaller turbo .

no need to post - you will be saying that it's too laggy @ 9-13 psi (full boost at ~6000)

So wait a minute, you post asking what to do, they tell you and you don't listen to them anyway? When the 60-1 doesn't work the way you wanted it to, go back to cheapturbo and ask questions, not here.

Depends what he wants it for. I keep hearing people over at the 240 boards wanting ONLY highway monsters. A 60-1 will come with lag, but that also means a little more time for traction.
supras with big *** T88s have some kinda lag but they usually do just fine.

In case you're interested. I have one for sale. [sig] But an .82 AR is mighty big too
