1560, T3/T3, 16G, OR 20G

DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHICH TURBO SPOOLS UP QUICKER. SUPER 16G, SUPER 20G, OR BALL BEARING T3/T4 "E" TRIM HYBRID.

if price were not an option I'd get the T3/T4 E but the ball bearing is 600 bucks alone on top of it's price, pretty hefty. Besides that I'd go for a 20G for spool, power and size.

My guestimation is the ballbearing T3/T4 will spool faster than the 16G and mush faster than the 20G. Faster spooling via reduced friction (and wear resistance) is the main advantage of a ball bearing turbo. Keep in mind ball bearing turbos aren't rebuildable as of yet so if it goes it goes for good. Fast spool up is definately not an advantage of a 20G.
