i think on a 20b theres no point on going with anything less than an 80mm turbo.. mabey a borg warner s480, or a 80mm GT42R.

What are you power goals with this engine? and at what PSI?

that question depends on countless other factors.. but i wouldn't imagine before 20psi; which is plenty of power.

I'd go with a 40R. I have a 4202R and I'm not even really into its efficiency at 575whp. A 40R should spool faster and still make plenty of power

dude you just asked that question in another thread.


If you are looking for a Big fat turbo that will still spool plenty fast, then go with a borg warner s475. They're 600 bucks.. you cant beat that really.

I wouldnt go with a divided housing turbo, so the 40R and 42R are definitely not my picks. Dumping exhaust from 3 rotors into 2 halves of a turbo is a mess and you could lose power or have longer spool time.

I would go with something like a Precision 71-76mm, or like Chaotic said, S475. The Precision turbines are a little smaller than the BW units but they will spool quick and make nice power. The BW stuff is much less expensive though.

The GT4202 IS a GT42R. There are 2 variants of the 42R, they are the 4294 and 4202. The difference is the compressor wheel.

Measuring the exducer it has a 94mm compressor. I would recommend the 4202, its compressor is better for higher power because its more efficient at 15-25psi and higher airflow levels.
