Just bought a rebuild older garrett t3 turbo
specs are
62mm 82mm billet wheel
74mm/62mm in a .63 housing
I tried math, had my daughter help, came up with it being a 57 trim. I looked up t3 57 trim seen dynos for around 400 ish hp. I was thinking it would be 45 lbs/min, but I looked up that wheel and I'm find things that are saying its more like 70lbs a min.
I was going to put on a hx 35, but saw this turbo for a good price and bought it thinking, its smaller, read lag is a problem but thought hey i'll put it on enjoy the car some than do something different later on. Im a noob with turbos, still learning.
Should I run this thing? and what would it take to make it decent? Anybody wants to sling some info I'm willing to listen.
engine is 6bolt eagle rods, wiesco pistons standard bore and everthing else is still in the works
