the first 2, its a throw up, but the others, imo, are too big for your motor unless you are going "all out"..

 

[statiksol]

right now i'm leaning toward this one GARRETT T3/TO4E 57 TRIM W/.63 A/R TURBINE. let me know what you guys think.

#4 is what id go with
GARRETT T3/TO4E 57 TRIM W/.63 A/R TURBINE

 

[statiksol]

nobody else has anything to say? come on guys.

 

[liquid00meth]

haha well what do you want to be said?

How much power are you looking for? Thats all that really matters.

 

[posol]

with a .48 trim, i think you might have issues with topping out too early...
on an LS, id say go for that, but an LS doesn't pull to 8k either.

get a precision sc34 and call it a day

That's what I got.. I'm gunna be LOVING it, I think.

BTW, B, my old turbo was a 46 trim, the SMALLEST that was offered in the model line at the time... and I STILL made 232 at the wheels. I seriously can't wait to feel the power from the MONSTER I just installed.

 

[posol]

right on... but your basically stock b16 VS an ls/vtec with oversized valves is going to be flowing/using much more air.. and thats why i think it might have topping out issues

 

[b20turboic]

yeah i think the 57/63 will run good my car runs a 60-63 stage 3 70 trim and its got a little lag ... only thing helping it is a 2.0

Can anyone give me a link on where to learn the basics of turbo trim, a/r ratios, etc? I've looked through all the turbo articles, and some other diagrams around the internet, so I've learned the basics pretty thoroughly, but the picture isn't so clear as far as everything else goes. Perhaps someone could just give me a crash course, if it's that "simple." How does one who doesn't have any driving experiences with different turbochargers figure out what type of trim, a/r ratios, etc, they want to use for their application? The TC's in the poll started by statiksol would make for good references as long as we're on the subject. *shrugs* What is the differences between them?
