Whats up guys. I'm looking at getting a brand new Garrett T3/T4 turbo. (my current turbo is outta commission) I'm wondering what kinda power it could make and when its gonna spool up. (.48 exhaust side, .60 compressor side) The guys selling it for pretty cheap so I'm trying to act fast.
Thanks guys
 
Bench racing huh?

Seriously though man, you can't expect ANYTHING with JUST a turbo. You need supporting mods in order to make any usable power. Your question SHOULD be,"if I use ("x") boost controller along with ("x"cc)injectors, with (this) wastegate, and ("x") bov, what kind of power can I expect from my Garrett turbo?

Get all those facts together and THEN ask your question.

No disrespect, just a statement.

1st find out which Garret it is EXACTLY.
Then go to TurboByGarrett.com - Turbochargers , then click on that model and the Turbo Map will let you visualize how much more airflow you will be getting.
3rd those sound like boguss numbers i would be careful purchasing anything from this person
 
450cc injectors
Tial 38mm wastagate
OBX fuel rail
OBX intake manifold
Mishimoto FMIC
Vortech FMU
Greddy type rz bov
Forge manual boost controller


I just wanted to know what kind of wheel horsepower this turbo is capable of by the measurements not what my car car handle or what it can put down.
 
like i said you need to find out EXACTLY what turbo it is first. No one can guess a wheel horsepower number just from AR numbers.


Find out what kind of Garrett it is

go to TurboByGarrett.com - Turbochargers

and the Turbo Maps tell you what the flow rate of that particular turbo is.
then compare that flow rate to the flow rate of your current turbo and you should have a rough idea on what kinda power you will be making.
 
First find out what compressor wheel it has. T3/T4 narrows it down to at least 500 possible combinations.

From there we can tell you what airflow it can generate, and you can figure out what horsepower it is capable of on your own.
