    just use the .ar specs combined with the trim....it'll actually tell you what the turbo is. 🙂

      no shit shurlock.....obviously i understand what trim is, and wasn't using trim to demonstrate turbo size

      but that is the common name people use to describe some variants of turbos......

      how else would describe a 50 trim t3 comp., or a 50 trim t04e comp. to someone???

      let me guess..... i um have a 42.5mm ind./60mm exd. t3 comp...... or a 54mm ind./76mm exd. to4e comp.

      get real...

      The comp. on my gt4202 was a 53 trim..... but is that the common name for it??.... fuck no

      different lines of turbos are obviously named/labeled differently

      I am glad you threw your 2 cents of Turbo 101 in there to show your mad turbo skillz....

      Woaaa dont get all defensive the only reason why you are involved at all with anything i said was becuase i fucking agreed with you. I was saying that for other people like travis who seemed confused by the idea of someone using a 50 trim and making more power than 270hp.

      But im glad that you also know what i know, and that you feel the need to throw around dimensions and basic math i already knew about your useless fucking turbo. Any one can use google and tell you your in./ex. Diameters, congrats

      stop trying to sound so smart by telling people the small about about basic shit that you know

            Who said I was talking about a "t3" 50trim. When the most people talk about a 50trim It is a t3/t4 50trim.

                so instead of telling him to get bigger turbos maybe we should be asking what he wants from this build lol

                im going for a street car thats got some fast spool up and some alrite power to have at stop lights and race nights and such.... to too much of a track car. maybe see it once or twice just for numbers. the only reason why i totally built the engine is because just in case i want that 300+ hp then i can change just the turbo and stuff.... dont want a car like 1990tsi's that is pretty much useless in town. also want to be able to hook up decent in 1 and 2nd

                  also my budgets starting to wear thin so i want to take advangtage of the lower priced decent power turbos like the 14b and 16g but im still undecided as well as with pump gas or e85

                    then why do you want a turbo fwd car? I believe you are after something like Drifterextremes setup. In which case there is NO reason for a built motor, especially if you are on a tight budget... Seems like you have no problem dishing out 250-350 for rods but you cant spend more than 50 bucks for a turbo?

                    no race car? becuz homeowner...

                        because i eventually want that higher hp but right now i cant. dont u think that it makes more sense to spend the money to build the inside first? i do....

                                Look into the 20g that would be a fun turbo for the street. But i think those are still mitsu flanged so you would need a new manifold if youd wanna run something different in the future.

                                And in that case i think you have a perfect motor for what you want. A cost effective build that will handle 450hp if tuned correctly. Prolly gonna wanna get a little beefier clutch tho.

                                        whats wrong with a turbo fwd car for what he wants? Traction problems? Almost any other application is just going to run into diff problems and costly clutch swaps with that power to get even close to what hes looking for.

                                        He spent money where money should be spent, on the motor. Those rods can be had for 220 dollars. More than likely itll handle power alot better over time then matts 4 door . So he spent an extra 400 dollars on his rebuild for some extra insurance, sounds like a good idea to me.

                                        And i think if his power goals are rreally as low as he says than the 14b or 16g turbo would be perfect for him, no reason to knock tried and true 200-300 horsepower turbos even if they arent super stupid expensive.

                                          whats kinda hp am i looking at with the 20g? And still wondering what the pvc squad is...

                                          supposedly a large 20g is supposed to be good for 400+ might be a tad bit laggy for what your looking for, a 16g would be an awesome budget turbo. But i think the 20g is an awesome turbo

                                          here a psht, there psht, everywhere a psht psht
