Hey all,

Just wondering between the s16g, e316g, and 16g with Evo X compressor wheel, which one would get me down the quarter the quickest and also from a roll on the highway.

I know that this is probably too close to call, but I think the e316g would take the cake.

Willing to turn the boost up as high as the turbo will support on pump to meet these idealisms.

I know that my goals are probably contradictory but still think the e316g would meet them.

My car is a heavier GVR-4 and has the shorter GVR-4 first gear which might make a small difference.

Which one would do it?

Thanks
 
Understood, thought of it but really looking on info for all 3. Really just a fun/technical post.

The issue that I hold with the 20g is that I have the money to do it, just unwilling to do it because I don't want to swap out my Wally 190 and my FIC 650s.

Want to stay within a budget.

Realistically i would just step up to a 20g for the same price.
 
Is it clear yet, or would you like me to point it out for you?

Sorry I must have missed the technical part of your post...

Thanks so far....again just talking about the 16g family here....will check into the 68HTA.

oh, please point out a single "technical" detail...

this is bench racing,

you are simply trying to reword,"How fast will a 16g make my car in the 1/4?"

if you were getting technical you would be asking which turbo flows the most Lbs/Min or what CM hotside should I run.

Thats not going to cut it.
 
If this is bench racing as you state, then why haven't the moderators closed this thread specifically for bench racing in the wrong forum? I might be vague, but vagueness does not preclude the technical portion of this post.

My modifications are in my profile along with the size of my injectors, the amount of boost that I am willing to run, the type of vehicle, and the final drive are all important factors. If you didn't wish to look at my profile, then some of those elements were mentioned.

You could answer your own question by searching and comparing flow rates and just general turbo info available in the search function. Im gna guessthe reason this thread is still going is because they may not have seen it yet. Being an ass is not the way to get info anyway.
There are so many variables to your question. What kind of fuel is a big one. Also boost is a measurment of restriction. So that tells us nothing. Each turbo flows different.
 
My post is legitimate and those of you who are doing name calling such as yourself are doing a great job. If other Other posters were able to provide data then getting in or out of the thread. If the data provided was outside of the scope of this conversation e.g. 20g, I politely let them know. This is the newbie forum, I am specifically allowed to ask questions in this forum without being told to search as per the TOS. You are telling me to search...here we go again. This thread will get closed but it may or may not be closed for bench racing. If it is, then so be it. If you have a question about fuel being run then just ask.

Thats what we are saying this question has been asked a million times. Oh well as with my previous statement. Get a 20g that way you wont be on the ragged edge of a 16g.
 
Per the TOS as it applies to this forum, I can ask this question 1,000,001 times. If you are tired of these types of posts, maybe don't read them. So now the problem is that I am asking a question that has been asked many times before? I thought it was that I am bench racing?

I refuse to get a 20g. I am cheap in some areas and so are other members of this community by full admission. The question pertains to the turbos I initially mentioned. Not putting down a 20g, if 16g(s) were not ok for such a large number of people, then they probably would not be producing them any more. Additionally, no one could ever make decent power on them or get a timeslip worthy of discussing in any forum. So far, this is not the case.

A E316g is damn near 1100 right now. I never said they couldnt make gd power I said for what your wanting.
 
No, sending my existing blown turbo off to a builder to have it rebuilt to become one of the above 3 turbos effectively. Far cheaper than $1100.

What I am wanting is a comparison of the 3 under this circumstance/goal.

someone with a Mod list like your

I would think you would know and have a little more sense then the questions your asking

since you have a small 16g why dont you take it to the track, post up a slip and then we can tell you what would improve your times

EDIT:

well now that you have said you blew your turbo, I guess this wont happen

stick with a small 16G its the cheapest and like you said your are cheap
 
All of the three turbos can get the job done because they flow similar. Your limiting factor are the 650's since it will run out of fuel rather quick and also depends what fuel you running (e85 or 93).
 
You are only supporting my point. I may know some things and I may not know others. I am effectively a "Newbie" in some areas. Modding cars is just like anything in real life. I may be skilled or know alot in one area, but may not know very much in another. I could be a doctor that works on hearts but know very little about feet. If you were to ask a heart doctor to look at your feet, they would tell you to get lost and you would understand why.

Additionally, just because my car has alot of mods doesn't mean that I put them on there.

Up for going to the track at some point but my car is down (turbo blown) and want to meet one of the 3 listed turbos would lead me so success. I am not above admitting that I would appreciate some positive direction in that regard.

Car is dead 0.00 would be my time. :(

Useful thoughts, you are right about the 650s....plan is exclusively pump/93. Was close to going to 1000cc injectors but went to my local e85 station and they went out of business. Next closest location is 60 miles away.

Had that nagging feeling. In this case the turbo is damaged beyond what a rebuild kit could do so I have to send it off. Would you still go s16g to meet these objectives in this case and would you still avoid the other 2. As the other poster said, fuel may be a limitation (if anything with the e316g) but I have read enough to have "faith" that my FIC 650s will get me through from the enormous amount of threads that I have read through.

honest advice... rebuild your 16G its cheap and a big or Evo 16G wont be worth the extra cost for your current setup
