a "is this turbo good" topic.. sorry *NSFW to redeem myself*56k pray*
OBD1 B18C1 (GSR) w/ I/H/E, cams, Skunk2 IM
T04 (on the turbine housing), T04B35 (on the label as the model)
Exhaust .81/Turbine .60
never been used, very minimal shaft play (moves like 1mm)
Too big? Also, I've never quite understood why Exhaust-Bigger Than-Turbine turbo's aren't more popular, as I would think they would spool quicker? I'm also only looking to run 5lbs.. at first
sorry for the retarded topic. now some ****

that turbo will be very laggy, even though I dont know what turbo lag feels like. and 5 lbs of boost? no get something smaller. $300! you can get something for less that will be better for 5lbs

im very cautious about buying something online, since i'm what some would call a penny pincher. i would go into a rage if i got scammed for even $10, and the intake/headers came with the motor.. the only things i've done to it are cat and back, cams and titanium valvetrain, and some de-ricing (returning to stock appearence)
i do have plans on bottom-end work later on, and i already have bigger injectors (like 400cc.. not positive on the specs)
another thing, i knew i would have lag, but because of my current tuning, i need 2.5" exhaust to breathe right, so i figured i'm dumping enough exhaust to spool something at like 3 or 4K, and I rev up to 9.5K
i've tried browsing through the for sale section, and whenever i see a turbo it's either already got dib's on, or being sold by some guy with 3 posts
