I know everyone has their brand preference when it comes to turbos but I plan to go with a Borg Warner S476 SXE here soon to try and put down some good power. Only problem I'm having is trying to determine the best turbine housing (divided T4) to use.
I see a .90, 1.00, 1.10, and 1.25 are my options to choose from. Now this a pretty large turbo, so I'm trying to get the best spool possible while still having plenty of power on tap.
I was think of using the .90 housing being that it's the smallest for the best spool and if back pressure or egt's get too high, I can fork out $160ish for another housing. But who likes throwing away money? Anyway, just wondering how some of you bigger turbo guys are going about selecting your housings Thanks.
