I am getting a t3/to4E turbo for my SiR(b16 engine of course).
I dont know what trim I should get. I am thinkin 54 or 57 but could use a little help.
what do you guys think?
i will be running at low psi for at least a year (or until I get my motor built)...then after that...whatever the motor can take/turbo can dish out
I got a ride in a delsol(with b16) and he had a 50 trim.
but what are your recommendations?

Not really a huge difference, but if you plan on Dragging the car a lot when the engine's built go with the 57. If it's gonna be your daily driver however, you will want as little lag as possible. I've got a T3/T04e .48 and if it wasn't for the Ball Bearing center, I'd have gone with a T-3 super 60 cause of lag issues

 

i see..thanks.
t3 super 60 would die out on the top i think for my engine.
this will be my daily driver.but im not looking for more power to get around town(well i will have a lot more power but a down low{2000rpm} punch is not really what im looking for..i want more power for when im racing(drag or track)..so I think the 57 is a good choice.agree??
how fast will this bad boy spool? full boost at 4000????
and 3500 for bb?

Yeah 57 trim should have full boost at 4000-4250 depending on how free flowing you are from the downpipe back, and about 500rpm less for BB. I didn't realize you had the Si, I was thinkin you were drivin the EX. Yeah 57 trim sounds good for what your lookin for.

 

Who needs boost in 1st gear??? i say t-66

 

Thta's what I'm saying. I mean hell they used them in F&F so they must be good right

 

Yup, they only finished the 1/4 mile in 5 minutes or so!!

 

ehehhehee
so 57 trim it is!
I want to get the BB option but I am afraid that if something goes wrong...i will have to buy a new turbo...at least i can rebuild (someone that knows how)the regular one...what do you think?

after a little more reading..i think 54 would be better!
bb or not??what do you tinkn?

 

is a .63 A/R the right choice for me???????

With the information given, this would be my recommendation: HKS GT 2835R with a .61 A/R. The 2835R will spool fast, and the tight .61 a/r for the street will give you great response; top end hp will be limited to about 400-450 with the 61. If you don't want the HKS, give Turbonetics a call and ask them for something comparable.

 

HKS gt turbos will cost out my ***!!!!!!! soo much $$ i have decided what turbo i just want to get the right specs

 

BB turbos can be converted at the time of rebuild to sleeve turbo's

just as long as they dont blow up!!!

 

oh.i didnt know that.
hmmmm

 

What does the Drag Gen III comes with for a 01 GSR? Which you guyz think i should go with its daily driver and will boost like crazy later on but that be a while. BB or not? What are you guyz setups for the Drag Gen III on a GSR 98+? I'm planin to go with Hondata also which stage you guyz recommend?? Thanks oh btw how safe can i boost with just stock internals with the high CR 10:1??? How many psi of boost can my stock internals handle???? Would I need to PnP my heads? Thanks for all help.

 

Why not give XS-Engineering a call or visit http://www.xs-engineering.com If you are going to call, speak to TRI pronounced "tree". Just tell them what U have and what u will like to have and they will custom make a turbo at a great price.

 

Stock internals can handle up to 8-10 psi, I will not recommend more than that for safety and reliability reasons. U do not need to pnp your head, Hondata stage 2 W/ boost option is sufficient but stage 4 w/ boost has everything, especially if U R going to be tuning your own ride, U can also burn custom chips very cheaply.

 

Will a Greddy T-78 Turbo fit on to a type r motor? If not how come? If it does what will I feel if I do.

 

A t-78 should be spooled by the time you hit 5th gear. Not the right turbo for a honda.

 

i have picked my turbo.just dont know what fuel computer **** to use.
hondata ,haltech etc.
