Not a huge turbo.... Lingenfelter uses two T3 Garretts on their 650 hp vette and the 427 twin turbo 740hp. I think porche uses them too..
But if Lingenfelter uses them they have to be good. For a 4 cylinder its a decent sized turbo.
Thats the extent of my knowledge on the T3

Nope, porsche uses KKK which is now owned by Borg Warner.

Some porshes use them as aftermarket upgrades though.
