I cannot decide which turbo I should upgrade to and need a little input on which I should go with.

Either A: A Super T70 T3/T4 with the .68a/r with 3" exhaust outlet.

OR

B: A 60-1 t3/t4 with .63a/r with 2.5" exhaust outlet.

I am running the t3/t4 e50 right now and I just want more power. Its good for what I am running, but when I go MS over winter, I am looking into 22psi and I just want a good turbo.

Now, I know both turbo's are going to spool up fast and quickly, but I just dont know which to buy.

Input please? Debate this for me. I am buying it Friday, so I wanted some input before I bought the one I was going to go with (was planning on the t70.)

Post the compressor maps and I can tell your exactly which one you'd want.

Oh ya forgot to ask as well, which is better, 2.25" i/c piping or 2.5" piping because I am getting all new piping and i/c too

For compressor maps, here are the 2 turbo's I am looking at:

Now you tell me which I should get....

LOL Guys, I am not buying those Turbo's off ebay. Those were the pics I was looking at of trim sizes and shit. lol

I am sending my e50 to Turbonetics and they are keeping it and I can upgrade to whatever I want for a higher cost. I just dont know what trim size and shit to uprgrade to, lol.

2 things:

1. no one said which i/c piping is going to be best, 2.25" or 2.5" ?

2. i talked to guy online who has an xspower (ss autochrome) turbo and he said he has been running it for over a year and he said he has had no probs with it and he just always turbo times it.

the only reason I am bringing this up is because I am not actually thinking of buying that turbo, lol. if i could keep my e50 and just buy that one, it would work out i guess, lol.

I talked to Dino yesterday on AIM for a brief second, he said for that price, its worth it.

Discuss.

that looks like a nice turbo... but he is selling it kinda cheap. a few people have said he sells XSpower instead of Garrett genuine parts... and the T3/T4 61mm ball bearing bit is a little unusual, I know you can get ball bearing T3/T4s from Turbonetics, but the Garrett replacement CHRA that changes a regular T3/T4 into a ball bearing turbo costs $800 plus rebuild on its own from ATPturbo.com... this is all kinds of suspicious

Okay, I picked out the turbo, you guys will be impressed on which I ordered, dont worry, its not some junk xspower or anything like that

i need to know though, I am getting new piping with a new i/c i ordered and dont know which is better to use, 2.25" or 2.5"?

thanks!

Oh okay, I found a good forum while searching on here.

says in a nut shell, the bigger your inlet, the bigger piping would be best. i have a pretty big inlet on my new turbo coming, so im going with the bigger piping

If your looking for a cheaper turbo, why not an sc61? Sign up on the honda-tech forums and search the market-place. I believe you could pick it up for around 700
