t3 if you want the option to upgrade.
if this is drag only, go with 2.5" charge piping and 3" dp. But if you have it already thats cool.

Thats what i figured. Are all t3s different as far as trim and internal wastegates?

Is there a specific t3 anyone can reccomend from experience? Thanks

Thanks I will start searching for that t3. Anybody know where to get one ie junkyard vehicle or should i buy new?
I guess what im asking is, is there a car that had this turbo stock?

Thanks

i have used a t25, .42/.48 T3, and a .48/.60 T3. and if your car is for drag only then i would go with the .48/60 but if you can't find one of those then the 42/48 would work pretty well also.
