Default Difference between these two very similar turbo's?

I did a search on this but still need some info
Whats the diifference between a garret t3/t04e turbo .63 ar and 60 trim and a preision sc61 with the same specs. I'm looking for power out put, spool times etc.
Thanks for any help or input. I know the sc61 has a 360 DEGREE THRUST BEARING and the other only has a 270, which would be better for keeping the turbo cool and last longer, but what other factors are making more and more people lean toward the sc61.

search and compare what you find on each... sc61 is a very popular topic.

Yeah I tried a search on both, but there isn't much I've seen with the power differences between the two. I have heard and seen that the sc61 spools faster and have shown bigger gains in hp at smaller boost. And I do beleive they do come with the gt wheels as well.
Thanks keep it coming

well, first off a garret 60 trim is really nothing like an SC61. They both use two completely different compressor wheels and have different power characteristics. the 60 trim uses a 60 trim compressor wheel and an SC61 uses a GT40 compressor wheel. The 60 trim is much smaller and much less efficient. The GT40 wheel will pretty much make more power @ any boost level over the 60 trim but it will suffer from a little more lag. not much, and its mostly caused because the gt40 wheel is only available w/ a stage 5 exhaust side. max power for 60 trim is about 500hp and gt40 is about 600hp @ the wrong wheels
