gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

want the 13s in my 98 ex coupe. want high 13s on a stock motor if possible safely. and 12s or better on a built motor.it is now down to these turbo now.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

either will work. T3 60 if your budget and GT28 if your baller

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

hard to choose cuz the maps are close but the gt28r is ball bearing and spools alittle faster, but i don't know. i shall wait and see the replies of others too.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

Just what i was about to post.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

dude if you've got the money, get the GT28. if it spools faster thats a good thing. Wheres the dillema?

anyone thinks this is good enough for the gt28r. and if these ppl got a good rep and legit.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

but which one's topend is weaker? topend is something i want to be even ya know. good spool and good topend something in the middle.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

I don't like the fact of the GT28R having only an internal WG. I would think both of them would have about the same performance up top.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

the turbine side of the gt28 is going to choke it off a little up top compared to the larger t3 turbine side.

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

that is true, although the compressor side is bigger on the GT28. You might have a very slightly better top end with the T3 60 although i dont think it will be much, because youll run out of flow with the T3 60 compressor before youll run out of flow on the GT28R Exhaust side, it all depends on how much boost you want to run. and your power goals in mind, the T3 60 will not make more than about 275-285whp before its wayy out of its efficiency range. I believe the GT28R is good for 350whp...

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

i think thats for a gt28rs. the r is 310 i believe.

it's just here and there some people say that turbo is too small and wish i would get a bigger one. its my daily but will be built to handle more boost. i want 270 or in that range to get low13s to high12s then go from there when i reach that. but one goal at a time. but i am thinking of taking the internal wastegate out cuz i already have a 38mm tial. its just some say topend sucks on the gt28r. is that true?

EDIt: someone was telling me to go with a t3/t4 50trim .63 is that too big for d16y8 and be able to work on a stock motor at that. but still get my goals? and how is it for daily driving?

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

what about the t3/t4 50trim .48? is that too big for a y8 and is it a possible daily driver on a stock motor for awhile? is it better than these two for my goals or not needed?

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

.48 A/R is smaller than a .63 A/R, you do know that right?

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

yeah but since its a dseries i want to make sure it will spool

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

If you don't want your spool to be higher than it should be, stay away from the .63

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

i just want to be in the 4000-4500 rpm range since that is what it will most likely be inbetween shifts

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

i have a 60/63 on my accord and im fully boosted by 4000. Also, alot of guys run 60/63s on stock D's

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

i see. well i think i will give the t3/t4 50trim .63 a shot. hopefully i will have full boost no later than 4500rpm i hope

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

should be fully boosted by 4000-4200

Re: gt28r or t3 60trim .48 on a y8?
 

really? what do you all thing? i think most likely its gonna be 4200-4500
