Re:big t3 on my b16?
yeah, but I can get the 60/63 for like $165 shipped. How big of a difference will there be between it and a comparable t3/t04e? How about between it and the other t3's (like the 42/4
? I guess I'm a little confused about the size of this turbo and I'm trying to get an idea of where it lies relative to other turbos I am familiar with. I'd like to use it because it's much cheaper than a t3/t4 (don't forget, i'll save money in a number of ways by using the internal wastegate too), but I want to know how much performance I will be sacreficing. I am thinking about using it for a while, then upgrading to a t3/t4. I'm sure the 60/63 could entertain me for a while

Re:60/63 on my b16?
i have the nissan 63/60 ts on my civic si and at 10psi it was making 246hp 205tq on the dyno, and it was tunned conservitavely. it made 270hp running a little leaner that day. full boost 10psi comes in at 4500 in 2nd gear and it makes power past redline. the t3/t4 is a bit bigger and will make more power at the same psi but it might take a bit longer to hit full boost and will be more expensive. sounds like you're getting a good deal on that turbo.
