Ok guys, i`m looking to get my turbo upgraded (or to buy hybrid) and here are options :

a) T04B H3 in stock machined housing ($600 with my core)

b) T04B 60-1 in T04B housing and 360thrust bearing ($750 with my core)

c) T04E 60-1 ($750 for sale, no core requested)

all those turbos are going to be straight fit on 87-88TII, non ported and i am aiming 280-300 rwhp

Since i don`t want to push stock turbo internals over limits, i`m looking for 12-14psi max, i will have Greddy FMIC and car is daily driver, not track car.....

I need to decide which turbo will be best option...price is no issue $600-800 range is ok...more important is to get quick response and be able to get some power without going too high with boost

All hybrids are going to have ported wastegates and stuff whats usually for hybrids...

 

oh yeah...and i suspect twinscroll removed completely....

 

I had the H3 compressor in a T04B housing with a stage 3 T3 turbine wheel on my 1990 Turbo, with an HKS FMIC, slightly ported . I didn't like the turbo but I don't think I ever really got into its effciency range and the wasn't the tightest/strongest either. This time around I am definatly going with a full TO4 setup, but if I did do the hybrid again I would stick with a 60-1.

 

what u didn`t liked on turbo exactly?

 

It was laggy and didn't make a whole lot of power. But I may have been below the efficently range I was only running ~ 11psi.

 

seths car has a t40e (im not sure its a 60-1) on an 89 exhaust housing and its great. it has the same lag as stock, but it has power up to 6500(on a ported ) and 7500+ (on stock ports). seth dynoed 265rwhp @9psi, i was running 11psi its fast.

yeah, but seth has full T04E, not hybrid...
