That is a huge turbo, how much boost were you planning to run? With that you'll be up in the 20s, are you sure you want that much? Also it's going to take some rpm before boost kicks in, in all honesty that's more of a drag race turbo than street.

Ya that is pretty big. Try to find a T60, that is what a lot of people seem to be getting now instead of a T3/T4

T60 is still big and rather inefficient. These days, people are getting 60-1's which is a T04S compressor, not a T60.

And MikeS, the size of the turbo has absolutely nothing to do with how much boost it's going to put out. He could run the T70 at 3 psi if he wanted to. But a T70 is a horribly inefficient turbo. Not that much output for the amount of exhaust it takes to spool one up.

Oops, that is what I meant 60-1.
