Garrett GT42/45 overkill for street ported FD?
I'd like to try a new turbocharger out.
I've been looking at the Garrett GT35/40 and GT42.
It doesn't look like it would lag a whole lot.
The GT42 has a significantly larger compressor and turbine wheel.

Yeah, thanks 10sec Rx7...
myself and a mate are building a 20B gen 3 and have just got a Gt42/45 for it. Let me tell you it is an absolute monster. If your not running a 20B forget about it as you will never see half of its potential on a 13B.
You would need a BIG shot of NOS to get the thing on boost... IMHO way too big.
Go for a GT35/40... thats what myself and a few mates are running on 13BT's and they are awesome.

Thats her!
Thats the same ugly compressor housing we got, we just put it in a smaller housing on the exhaust. 
It's a little small for a 20B IMHO, just perfect for a 13B.
but some say I'm not well.

Wondering where you got your GT35/40? And do they sell a setup GT35/40 + exhaust manifold + hardware? Appreciate any info. Thanks.

Im thinking about a GT 42 with 1.22 exhaust housing for my FD streetport. Will it fit where the oem turbos are placed or do I have to get it up? I want to get the airpump in the car without removing the turbo on smog check.
Is the GT42 with 1.22 E.H. a good choice? I can get one for 500 $, and its not Rollerbearing.

are we measuring dicks here?
we have custom exhaust housing put on ours to accept the big footprint from the TV-51. I'd like to compare yours.
