Way too small for a 13B. You'll just choke the motor with that one. Now 2 of them would work if you have the money and patience to make it work.

For what kind of application? The GT35R, GT40, GT40R, RX-6, TD06, TD07, 60-1, 62-1. There are TONS of choices. But with a 13B you are usually going to want a T04 hotside. The only exceptions I can think of are the GT35R and the RX-6. They both work very well and have a T3 hotside. Not to be an ***, but if you do a search in the single turbo forum I know for sure that you'll find loads of info on this subject. Best of luck.

My question is why is the GT35R good even though its a T3 footprint? I always thought that a T3 is too small for us and what makes it bigger (or something else that makes it better)? Thanks.


Oh and I am looking at this turbo for myself and want some opinions:

It's not a standard T3... I believe Zero R mentioned the turbine wheel (and housing?) is different... Flows better than a standard T3.
