Have my eye on two turbos, all I can afford right know, spent it all on other parts of the car.
Bullseye-Power T04B V Trim Bolt On Turbocharger or the EVOIII 16G, they are the same price.
I've read all about the 16G, not much but the description of the Bullseye-Power. The BP turbo is
supposed to put out 330whp at 15psi and up to 400whp, no psi stated for that. I've got all the mods
so I was just wondering if anybody knew of this BP turbo.
 
I have used both, and without a doubt I would get the e316g. The bep v trim will make full boost about 3800-4000rpm, and the e316g will make full boost about 3000-3400rpm depending on how good your tune is it can be faster. I have had an e316g make full boost (27psi) by 2800rpm. The e316g is one of the most enjoyable street turbo ever. You will not be disappointed with the e316g. Also, the bep vtrim number you saw about 330whp at 15psi isn't common, that was on a built shop car. E316g FTMFW!!!
 
Probably 350-400whp? I just got my new ecu with chip from Keydiver, 650cc's, 255lph HP. I built the motor
first( I'm old, that's what we used to do in the old V8 days) to take anything I throw at it in the future. Jeff
from Keydiver told me I might want to just keep my stock cams because of vacume issues, plus it's harder then hell to find any HKS VPC chips bigger then the 450 I got, so 650's are about the limit for a reliable tune from his chip. I have the HHH logger on my laptop, so I can log. I do have the GCC for the VPC.
Oh, I also have a holley rail and fpr with braided line from hardline to hardline.
If what you say about boost coming on early, that's what I need for AutoXing.
Not on subject, but getting this pig to turn is the hardest part of this whole thing. I've been working on trying to a good setup for 2 seasons.
This is what I really want, is to beat these damn cobra's and z's, on and off the track. I have to run in ESP.
 
Go with the EIII16g it is a better turbo in every way. The v-trims are not real reliable and do not make as much power.
 
I think I'm going to go with the e316. Just tried to do some research and as usual got a lot of nothing. I have a degree in CIS and Electronics, but I must be too retarded to use a search engine correctly.
I have the e316 O2 housing anyway.
The car sat from 93 to 07, longest build ever, so after marriage, kids, school, divorce, the rest has to be very low budget. The car outlasted the marriage even though she bitched about getting rid of the "POS", so she could park in the garage. Garage was full, Talon, and 56 chevy 2dr wagon with a built 302(chevy) 4spd muncie and 4.11's, I use to beat up on Honda's then sold it after the divorce ;]
The Talon outlasted them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the input!!!! Appreciated very much.

The o2 housing that u have for the 16g will work with the bullseye too but i would def go with the 16g over the bullseye. had 1 for a few years and had alot of fun with it im finally switching over to a big t3/t4
 
I say also E316G. With a built motor+ cams wiht the E3 you will get very close to 400whp an full spool will be very quick.
 
so I was just wondering if anybody knew of this BP turbo.
I do. It's horrible.

The compressor only outperforms the Evo III 16G compressor at, like, 10-12psi. Past 20psi the Evo III compressor outshines the V-Trim HANDS DOWN.

The Evo III is more durable. The V-Trim is a surge-monster. The Evo III outspools the V-Trim by at least 400rpms, mostly due to the V-Trim having an enormous P-Trim turbine....why BEP paired the poorest-flowing compressor to the greatest-flowing turbine is beyond me.

Turbo technology has come a long way since the introduction of the V-Trim- there are much better turbos to spend your money on. What's funny is the Evo III 16G has been around the entire time, and the V-Trim can't even outperform a turbo with technology that is almost as old as our cars.
