It depends on what trim T3 you get. A 40 would suck for what you want, and a 50 probably would too. A 60 or super 60 (better) should be right up your alley. Not too much lag, and you should be able to boost 20psi on one with a D within its efficiency range.

But don't take my word for it. Go plot the map and see what you think...

I'd go with a Precesion Turbo, something like a SC32/34/44/50.. I think the SC61 is a bit overkill for a z6 unless its incredibly built up and for race use. They come in all different trims and sizes, so it really depends on what type of HP goal your going for.

For a garret a 57 / 60 trim T3/04e w/ a 60/63a/r should run 18psi just fine on that engine. Or you could go with something like a Garrett GT series.. GT30 =)

You sound like me before I got back from 18psi land. lol. Go with a Thunderbird T3 .48/60. Anything over 12psi on the streets and your traction problems are going to own you.

First planned my kit: Reality hits:

Sleeves posted
Aem Ems turbo edit
20 psi 13psi
fully built built bottom end
