QUick spool time... should start making boost around 2500-2800 and full boost by about 4000-4500....

Nice turbo for a daily driver/weekend warrior.

7-8 psi maybe 220-240 maybe 250 depends on how and what you run set-up wise....

I would hope you make that much power.....That setup is good for 10psi with the hack (honda map limit) and I would def get something to retard timing in boost, it will help keep yur motor safe and sound....I would look into possibly using uberdata instead of the hack if your obd1 (its free and hear it works very well)... Good Luck

Skip the VAFC for tuning. You need a custom ECU or a hondata. For the money your going to spend get RC550's instead of 440's.

I'd personally spend another $100 and get not go through SSAutochrome and buy that same A/R and trim T304e from cheapturbo.com

It has the same specs, but it is NOT the same turbo. You get what you pay for and $400 for a "new" turbo is definitly on the cheap end.

One of my favorite turbos. I made 277whp 200ft.lbs at 8psi on my stock gsr. This was back when FMU was top of the line stuff. You guys are so spoiled with hondata AEM EMS now. You guys have no idea how hard we had it. LOL

well that deal fell through... i bought a t3/60-1 a few days ago... boost a little bit later and bigger and i can keep this turbo if i plan on building... so i think of it as an investment.

I remember an earlier thread about the SSAutocrhome turbos...and quite frankly..stay away...the Guy who got his turbo from them..had chips and imperfections on the turbines.
