garrett T3 .42/.48 capable of 300whp???
I disagree. The a/r of the compressor does not have as much affect as you might think it flow. You've got to consider that this is still a 50 trim turbo. While not massive, that is decent. If I can dig up the video and get it hosted I'll show you a 4 door with a 1.5l non vtec and this turbo running an 11.9.......and I'm at 4500 ft.!!!! This was done at 25 psi of boost. (way beyond the efficiency range of this turbo)
Your should actually be looking at whether or not you'd actually want to use this turbo to make 300 hp. The biggest drawback is the amount of heat it will create in making 300 hp will leave little room for error in tuning (read: massive detonation).
So...will it make 300 hp? Yeah. Should it be your first choice to make 300 hp? Nope...look to go a bit bigger than that.
