Default Opinions on t3 .42/.48


I am thinking about running this turbo on my gsr. I want to be around 250whp and am looking for something that spools down low. Some poeple tell me to go with a bigger t3/t04e but i know i'll never use it fully and it will just spool higher up. If the t3 .42/48 is capable for like 260whp on my gsr id love to use it but i dont want it to fall flat on its face at like 7k. I plan on running 7 or 8 psi. I've tried searching but i ahven't found much...thank you

i think a 42 compressor will not flow enough to get you the results youre looking for, if you had a small T3--T04 or a T3 60/48 then youll have good resuilts.

waayyy too small imo! some people have been using the 60/48 t3 on b-series motors for that "quick spool". it should still carry to redline but dont trust me on that. if i had a b-series i would NEVER put anything smaller than a 63/60 t3.
