Also should i spend the extra $40 and get watercooled? or spend extra $30 and get the 0.63/0.60? i will eventually build the JDM motor and want over 300whp, it says the .48 only supports to 300?

thanks a lot guys!
t3/04E trim .48/.60 stage 3wheel 57trim good to 400-425 HP.

Mine pulls HARD ALL THE WAY TO REDLINE (6500) You can get housings (new) for 150-200... If I were you I would get the turbo mentioned above, I DID.... and after your build if you decide you want a later spool change it then. I have a f22b1 and the turbo above and its a ------ monster in my heavy cd5/full interior and subs. 13.89 on street tires and shitttty 60's. 260 whp and 270 tq at 10psi conservatively tuned... Gonna turn it up to 15-16 soon after i put head studs in it. Ive beat the ---- out of my setup every day for 6-7 months, and the motor has 155,000 on it... f motors are TOUGH, and mine hasnt shown any signs of bad juju yet. Compression's good, dont burn oil. NO smoke.

I tell myself I love the car every time i drive it and stand on the gas in second gear and the front end comes unglued (with a BIG cheesy grin)

Trust me.... PM me your number if you want to chat, ill call you on my dime...

Yeah, those 50 trim T3 with 0.42 a/r are easy to find at the junk yard but they're not that good for us. I don't sell any because they run out of breath above 200 HP and i know most people will run more than that.

Yes sure watercooling is a wonderfull thing for the price and ease of install.
it reduces your after idling times, extends the life of your turbo as well as the frequency of your oil changes.

imo, go big or go home. dont get a turbine smaller than .70, and no compressor smaller than .82

or get nothing smaller than a gt35

Ya but even with like a stage 1 wheel.....a .82 exhuast turbine would be a joke on a motor that only spins 6500 rpms...a 63 is doable and might get a few more hp up top, but the powerband of the stage 3 57 trim 48 hoiusing on the f22b1 is ridiculous...I mean max power at 6200, max tq at 4750 fu;; boost by 3500.... FUN TIMES MAN....the tq curve is almost flat from like 3700 all the way up to max hp...... 260 whp /270 tq


Unless yopur gonna do some serious headwork on the SOHC's valvetrain anything above the 63 would be a waste... the 48 in the stage 3 57 trim is perfect

actually the smallest turbo able to meet your power goals wth good efficiency is the best one. The bigger you go over that, will give you nothing but lag.

let me know how the 15psi treats you. im planning on a bigger turbo and maybe 14-15psi myself on the stock block. 300whp isnt too far away. should be fun. need to get a fuel pump first though. also thinking about water injection for the track.

i think accords are cursed with shitty 60's so you arent alone there. good luck.

I found the turbo below for sale, its BRAND NEW for $350 shipped, i think its a great deal, not sure if the 60 trim is good for me or not?

Garrett / Airesearch T3 .48/60 60trim
