Is this a good turbo for my streetported 13bT?

Hopefully some one can help me out. Im looking at purchasing this turbo off another member for use on my Streetported 13bT.. The motor has the racingbeat street intake, with race port exhaust... now, on to the turbo:

"Garrett 60-1 known also as a TO4S . Polished compressor housing, and exhaust/turbine wheel is P trim .84 DIVIDED."

What kind of power levels could i expect? any ideas on lag aswell?

Thanks for any help

just a guess, but i'd say it's probably going to be pretty responsive, but limited to the mid-to-high 300s range before efficiency starts to fall off. what i will say for sure is you'll have a very fast Gen I with it.

i think the real question is what are your goals?

with a streetported motor and decent tuning i'm going to say about 410whp @15psi.

.84 divided p-trim shouldn't be too laggy. overall it should be a great turbo with good response and a little over 400rwhp on pumpgas.

i have the same turbo on my car with the same type of extended port. though not tuned yet, that turbo spools wicked fast!! mine's BB though, that does make somewhat of a difference.

Yeah, if you have a 1.6 to 2.0 liter 4 banger its great. But for a rotary its freakin toooooo small. Though its effiency is high being its a newer GT series turbo, its flow numbers are more suited for smaller engines. Its a expensive turbo for very very little upgrade above stock FC turbo and a downgrade from stock FD twins.

You'd need a pair of them on a 13b. If you're not going to post anything informative or relevant, don't post.
