Hp Goal!

[Daboss]

Hey forum I just wanted to ask you experts a quick question. I have narrowed my turbo selection to 2 turbos I have a power goal of 500 rwhp can u please assist me by telling me which one you think is better suited for that goal? First up we have the

Dual Ball Bearing GT35/GT40R Turbo T3 style inlet flange with 4 bolt exit. Large TO4S style compressor housing with 4.00 inlet and 2.50" outlet. It is said to have a flow capacity of about 600HP.Turbine-Wheel: 68mm w/ 84 trim-Available Housing: .82 ar, Compressor-Wheel: 82mm w/ 56 trim-Housing: .70 ar and next up is the Garrett T3/60-1 COMPRESSOR SPECS - T04S housing flow: 61 lbs/min 781cfm .70 A/R housing 60 TRIM wheel TURBINE Specs - T3 76 TRIM stage 3 Turbine wheel. Oil lubricated center section. 360 degree thrust bearing .82 A/R said to be Capable of 600whp! All help is appreciated thanks in advance. Oh I forgot to mention it will be a street car so I would prefer the quicker spooling one. Thanks again!

bit hard to read there, but as it is a gtr with a twin setup, for the low power goal of 500bhp, I would stay away from going for a single.

Pretty much anything will make what you're after.

Twin 2530, maybe even twin 2510, n1, gtss....

I was going for a medium to large single because I wanted to cut back some of the upgrade cost? Whats the problem with going to a single from a twin turbo setup if I am only after 500 bhp? Yea its 500 for now but you know how that goes only until i get tired of it and then it will be 6 and 700 bhp cause I plan on having this ride until either it or I die God spare my life and I am just setting up the ride for future upgrades if necessary. So this will just be the initial upgrade.

Going for a single isn't going to decrease the upgrade cost. Once you factor in the cost of exhaust fabrication and intake fabrication, new oil/water lines etc, going to a single will cost you more.

The price for twin kits e.g. 2530 are very reasonable. As they are basically straight bolt on, there is almost no customisation/fabrication cost

Also, I feel that there is no need to move to a big single. Larger twins are perfectly capable of putting out big power. e.g. the twin 2530 will put out shitloads of power. It was enough for paul and stace to do 10s with it.

Twin gtrs will make more power again.

Couldnt agree more

One more turbo question before I go. If I opt for the single and go with a T04 turbo say this one the gt 4088r first of all will it fit under the hood of a gtr without mods and secondly if i got the turbo with compressor:wheel diameter of inducer:63.5mm exducer:88.0mm, trim:52, a/r:0.72 and turbine: wheel diameter: 77.0mm, trim:78, a/r:0.85 will this be a lag monster or will the spool up time be just as long as a gt3582r with compressor a/r .70 and turbine a/r .82?
