Garrett T3/T4 57 trim turbo too big for a civic?
i can get a Brand New Garrett T3/T4 57 trim turbo off of Garrett Distributor (Supports 450 hp)= $520 but i think its set up for full boost at 2500 rpm which i prefer 3000 rpm full boost. but is this turbo too big for our car?

full boost at 3000 RPM??? no way....
you'll hit 3000rpm full boost with something smaller

you need a little more research....
with my sc50 .63 a/r im reaching boost like after 4500 rpm
you can get full boost faster with a smaller turbo.. that is quite big for a d16
reaching full boost is totally dependant on everything BUT the turbo...
a 5.7 liter motor with spool that turbo much faster than a 1.6 liter

check out a t25 or maybe even a t3 .48 for something to spool quick

There are a lot of factors that contribute to how you spool the turbo. Seriously... research.

since ur so educated then give me the scoop to save me time. so if i want only like 50 hp increase due to stock engine and like full boost by 4k rpm then go with a t25 with .48?
