Well if you alread decided on the star kit, your getting the t3/t4. I think maybe you should have researched this a little more before you already buy it. The star kit comes with a .50ar t3/t4 e-trim turbo. If its stage 2 youll be boostin around 8-9psi hittin full boost around 4k, maybe less. Whats wrong with that? Your already stuck with the garrett manifold and turbo, so theres no way of boltin up a 16G even if you wanted too, unless you return it all and rebuy the HRC kit. Should have researched before spending all that money

A .50 trim T3/T4 will be plenty for you..don't worry about it..that turbo has more power potential than the S16G anyway..regardless, to utilize the power from either of those turbo's, you will need to rebuild the motor with forged pistons/rods anyway..

Just a little FYI... The Hahn Super series turbos use Garrett flanges on the exhaust manifold.
Lets just say this... I'm over 100whp and soon to cross 200whp. Thanx 2GNT! Now if I could only learn to prove it.
