Go with the T3/T4 . My freind just put one in his 240 and it spools up pretty quick.

t3/ 60-1 in my opinion... or a precision unit... sc61 or 63 maybe (drool)

btw I have a version of the garret t3/ 60-1 I use... been slightly worked though.

if you can afford dual BB... thats your obvious answer. t4 is big but thats what you want right.

gonna have to sleeve that block and think about serious fuel management to make use of the turbo that big. and think big injectors too.

Do all you said, plus just a basic head port and polish, then go with the Precision SC63 snail. That, with some good dyno tuning, will be more power than you will need.

i would go w/ the 60-1... thats what i have. i had a t3/t04b also.

my friend has a t3/t4 on and only made 273 at the wheels at 14psi.

my car is still being built but my tuner said 300hp to the wheels is easy w/ a 60-1. he said i should hit it w/ 10psi... still spools quick cuz mine is a t3 60-1

i would stick with a t3/t04b or e since youwant a street turbo.
if you want more peak power get the 60-1 or something like that but a well sized e or b will make 270-370 hp and spool quickly.

If you are going to be using the turbo for mainly street I would go with the t3t4. Dont go with the 60-1 unless you are putting out a lot of power. If you are only boosting like 8 to 12 lbs dont use the 60-1. The t3t4 will spool up faster.
