turbo sizing on B16A?
 

i have been thinking about this for a little while and still have no idea. here are the choices:
T3/T04E 57 TRIM w/.48 A/R turbine
T3/T04E 57 TRIM w/.63 A/R turbine (i was thinking this one)
T3/T04E 60 TRIM w/.63 A/R turbine (maybe this)
T3/T04E 60 TRIM w/.82 A/R turbine
now this will be on a stock block/head B16A (10.2:1 CR) at 6-8psi. not too worried about lag as long as boost shows up around 4K. this will be a street car (for now anyway), but raced every chance i get. thanks for your input...

this one will be perfect dustin i just a bit bigger than mine. Somtimes i feel my turbo is just a little to small.

bigger than your? cool just the right size then ;D there all the same price so i was just thinking to get the biggest one (thats not like ------ V8 huge). but im thinking it wouldnt be used to its potental, sence i will be at 8psi till i rebuild my motor...

Beau doesnt know what he is talking about.. his turbo is not small in any way.. That turbo is capable of putting an easy 300hp to the wheels, your shitty Jim startup motor is just not setup right... ::)

To small... lol

Dustin, any of the those turbos will be fine.. especially for a stock B16a.

"your shitty Jim startup motor is just not setup right.."

as aposed to your lsvtec with 130k on the bottum end?

Hmm, the motor had 27k marked all over the block and valve cover, and it said it on the recepit... What the ---- are you talking about? oh and last time I checked it put 175 to the wheels... :o But thats nothing compared to your Monster built B16a Turbo that put a mighty 200 hp down.. :-\

My B18b bottom end is mint...

Dont make excuses "My turbo is to small" because that is Not a valid point, I honestly think we need more time on the Dyno.
