well my motor is currently stock but i just want a turbo i can use beyond 14 psi for later when i do my build up. but at the time im only looking for 225 hp. well as much as the new headgasket and arp headstuds can keep with a good tune. arent these turbos set- at 10 psi and how is the spooling time.

i dont remember exactly but its not quite a fast spooler but not too bad either (was perfect for me since i dont really like really fast spooling turbos). as for the wg i guess it would depend where the turbo came from. 225 whp shouldnt be a problem for the hg or studs...in a d your problem area is the rods really

I run it on my Z6, couldn't ask for a better turbo. Doesn't boost unless you want it to.

I had a 60 trim .48/.60 on my last setup. I loved it!

It pulled really well, I just wish I wouldn't have bought it from ------- down2turbo. Nothing like spending $400 on a turbo only to have it last 3 months. >:(

I used a .48/.60 60 trim t3 on my b16 crx, this turbo is considered small for a b-series, but at 10 psi it pulled like a mother fucker all the way to 8,500 rpm..spool was decent, part boost at about 2800-3000 rpm, and full boost by 3800-4000 rpm...

t3 .48/.60 works great for a b16. Spools relatively quick and holds up boost to redline.

Re: t3 48 hotside 60 a.r
 
what set up were you guys running with the B16? I had the .48/.60 on my old LS set up. I spooled it at 2500RPM and had full boost at around 3000-3200 and it started losing power after 6000rpm. This turbo would be great for a D16
