garrett T3 60trim

[fatal]

anyone using one of these??

How much power could i expect on this over stock??

Im going with 42lb injectors with the marine intake manifold, with stock sy/ty exhaust manifolds on about 10-12 lbs of boost

also have 02 vortec heads

Re: garrett T3 60trim

most people around here use a PTE turbo setup since they make a SyTy specific exhaust housing. The turbo in your picture will not clear the a/c bracket on a syty...and i wouldn't be surprised if it even came in contact w/ the cylinder head if you're trying to use stock manifolds.

sorry... its on an 02 4.3L Silverado

Re: garrett T3 60trim

ok...well i'd be willing to bet that turbo, on a stock syty manifold w/o a spacer...would hit your alt and maybe your head.

Re: garrett T3 60trim

you think a spacer would fix the problem though?? or be just better off selling the 60 trim and getting a smaller one.

I just want a big enough turbo to make enough power to move my lardass fullsize. haha

Re: garrett T3 60trim

A few late model S10 guys use similar turbos and they're getting 250+ rwhp at lower boost levels (8-9 psi). I think some of them swap sides with the manifolds to improve clearance but I don't know the details.

I doubt i will have to swap sides with manifolds... but i wont know until i get everything bolted up??
