Default ordered a turbo today. good size?


i talked to the guys down at camp today and got a t3/to4e 54. trim 48ar turbo.

i am shooting for between 300-350 WHP.

did i make a good choice on turbo sizing?
i have a forged pistons and rods b16.

i was orgionally going to go with the 57.trim 63ar but they told me , the 48 would be just fine.

agree disagree?
350whp goal.

it was a really good deal. shipped to lincoln $545 bucks.

the 63 spools a bit later but hits super hard.....the 48 should get you into those numbers

its probably gonna take 18-20psi to make that goal on a stock bore B16a unless its got some trick headwork/cams and some nice flowing manis.
