Help me pick another turbo.

So my turbo vendor decided he didn't want to ship my turbo for about 3 weeks. My car is apart @ SMG motoring waiting for a turbo. So my options are limited. I would like to buy something tonight and get it next day.

I had on order a garret t3t4 54 trim .63 ar.

I have a specific one in mind but I want to know what you guys think.

Sooooo.... here are my options.

ebayt3t4- 200 for now untill I get what I want

garret t3t460-1 .63 -650

garret t3t457trim .63- 625

turbonetics t3t4 50trim stg4 - 750

gt concepts t3t4 60-1 - 575

Call Hahn and get the Super 20G for $839.99. Great turbo, has standard t3 flange like you want, and it really puts down the power! 360whp and 346wtrq @ 22psi!

I have one for sale if you want to buy one off me. Let me know and to answer your question. I think it all depends on your preference and brand imo.

I think They are all pretty similar.

The 20g is to high priced and not enough power.

What I was leaning towards was the garret the t3/t4 60-1. I think I will stick with it unless I can find a good reason to go for something smaller.

Not enough power? The damn thing is good for over 500hp! What the hell are your power goals in mind then?

I ended up going with a garret t3t4 57 trim .63. It sais its good for 545. It's a bit bigger than what I had in mind originally but my goals keep changing.

I thought the 60-1 would be more power but they say that this is capable of 45 more horse's.

I meant by that I could get a gt30 or something for that price.



I will have a nice build thread when my car finally gets back from SMG. If anyone's interested. It's been almost 2 weeks without her already
