87740, 14B or T3
Posted by BumpinTalon, Jul-06-05 11:19 AM
alright, I've got a 14B on the way, just because that way I can buy my Evo III 16G back from my friend when I get my car up and running and get the motor rebuilt, but a Garrett T3 in really nice shape just came up for sale, and if I get it I can use a manifold that someone is selling on here for real cheap instead of being ghetto fabulous and bolting the 14B to the stock mani, and then step up to a Super 16 or 20G down the road and just let my friend keep the Evo.

the 14B is in very good shape, no shaft play or anything
the T3 is in excellent shape, no shaft play or anything. has a heat shield and internal wastegate. .48ar

my goal is to boost 5psi until I find an intercooler, then up to 8psi until I rebuild the motor, and then go nuts and aim for 315whp.

remember the 14B is already paid for and I'd have to sell it to get the T3. is it worth the trouble, or are they too much the same to even bother?

Get the T3 because that will make it much easier to find an exhuast manifold and upgrade in the future.

or just get the KKK turbocharger that I have for sale with a brand new manifold made specially for it
