I recently blew my head gasket in My "00 Turbo'ed B16a2 Civic Coupe. I got a the part to fix it, Cometic head gasket, Arp studs and Greddy extreme timing belt. While I was buying part I came across a good deal on 2 turbos. My question has anyone ran a Garrett T3/T04e with the spec of .60cold and .82hot A/R's If sock what can I expect as for a spool and response. I have a .60cold and .63hot too which i know would good to go.

 

82 hot is gunna be kinda laggy. Thats a big exhaust wheel

 

its actually not a wheel, its the area to radius ratio of the housing. but yea, .82 t3 exhaust housing will be pretty laggy. i dont think it would spool before like 5500.

 

the size you have right now is fine. if you got a REALLY good deal, maybe buy it for spare parts.

matt

 

or resell for more $$

 

Ooops i juss guessed i do know the bigger the hot side the longer to spool it.

 

You don't think it will spool before 5500rpm. Do you guys know of anyone who has a turbo that size on their B16

 

no but i have seen and had many different turbos on my car and cars that ive built for friends. You dont have to take my opinion, but its out there. If someone used the next size down and it didnt spool well, what makes you think a bigger one would?
