I am interested in purchasing a Garret Turbo for my 98 Integra GSR. What turbo should I go with in your opinion? I was looking at two of them. One of the two that I was looking at was the GARRETT T3/TO4E 57 TRIM W/ .63 A/R TURBINE and the GARRETT T3/TO4E 60 TRIM W/ .63 A/R TURBINE. Which one would be better for my application? Whats the difference with the 57 trim and the 60 trim? And at the top of the page it says,"OPTION: T3 5bolt TURBINE HOUSING", does this mean that I could make the turbo housing a 5 bolt downpipe? Thanks for your time and hope to hear from you soon. Thanks

 

That big of a turbo would it give you alot of lag. Or would it be responsive ??

T3/T04E:

Compressor : 50 Trim To4E, .60 A/R T04E housing

Turbine : Stage 3 T3 wheel, .63 A/R T3 4-bolt housing (actually TA31 Housing).

that is your best bet. make sure to get a 360 Deg thrust bearing. the 4-bolt housing flows better than the 5-bolt housing.

 

But with the 4 bolt can you still retain a/c? Because in florida you have to have a/c.

 

yes u can retain a/c. youll probably have to run a 2.5" downpipe like me tho. 3" is really hard with a/c

the turbo scott mentioned above will get to about 450whp and is a very well balanced turbo
