Well, EvoIII 16G will flow enough air for around 380whp, and it's very reliable turbo, so from the cost-effectiveness point of view, that would be a good way to go.

If you decide to go with T3/T4 setup, you'd have to factor in stuff like garret exhaust manifold and custom O2 housing to mate to a garret turbo. Sounds like an overkill for 300-350 hp.
 
The Evo III 16g turbo has a relatively small spool time for its size, and I belive that you would get the most out of it with your application that you have in mind.

The T3/T4 is a bigger turbo with bigger turbine/compressor and will be able to put down a bit more power, but as the previous post said that it would be overkill for your engine. I think you will be pleasant with the Evo III installation.
Good luck man.:thumb:
 
Cool thank you that's what i thought i will go for the Evo III .. anyone know who is selling one in good conditions cheap :thumb: because i will have to pay someting like 150 bucks only for shipping :mad: and i can't found it here in mexico.

It's probably possible to find a cheap used one, but I'm not sure if that would be a good idea. I personally would never buy used turbo before actually seeing it and inspecting it.
 
they sell both the evoIII gt and the mhi evoIII. just get the mitsubishi one and not the gt
 
CyberManiaK said:
uhmm but doesn't the evo GT from turbachargers.com isn't a knock off chinese turbo?

Yes they sell both versions, the GT and the real MHI unit. The real MHI evoIII was on for $459 last time I checked & I believe they wanted $499 for the GT version.
 
Yeah they have both 499 for the EVO III GT and 459 for EVO 3 16g .. so why if the GT is the china one is more expensive ?

Thanks.
