New Guy With A Question About A Turbo Up Grade On An Rb20

[disco dan]

Hi guys im new here, from the east coast of the United States. i have an s13 240sx with rb20det and was looking into turbo upgrades. i ran across the t3 super 60 and it seems tempting for its low price. i was wondering if anyone has used this turbo or could give some pros/cons about it, or possibly give suggestions as to some other good turbos to use. I have already searched the entire dyno sheet thread. Thanks in advance

edit forgot to add that im looking for about 300 whp or 225rwkw

T3 Super 60.. is it off like ebay by any chance or some dodgy company claiming to not come from china? If so it will most likely fail. Get a hi-flow rb25 turbo or a kkr if you dont wanna spend much money. Make sure its a real kkr from otomoto tho cuz there is fakes everywhere.

+1 on kkr 430 for RB20. Try to get an oil and water cooled version (they do exist, you just have to ask for them).

230kw its easy out of an rb20. with a small turbo like gt 2530 gt 2535 or a hi flow 25 turbo all suit quite well

but in my oppinion id go something like a gt3071r or get a full TD 06 L2 kit from trust

both have awsome power and response is only 500rpm later in the rev range than a baby turbo like the 2530

they will give you at least 250kw and if you ever run a race tune with the right fuel you will see upto 280rwkw

mild tune at 250kw will chew any other rb20 with a 2530 or similar sized turbo.

in the end as everyone else will tell ya how far do you wanna go with mods all costs money bud

td06 kit is best bet and not so pricey

No its the actual garrett t3 super 60 its retails here in america for about 700 bucks. a 2530 or similar hks turbo costs about 1500-2000 dollars new, and about 13-1500 dolars used high flow rb25 turbo is an option, but here they sell for 350 dollars in factory trim. without being high flowed. so all said and done would be about the same as a new t3 super 60 from garrett. i really would just like to know how well this turbo would work on an rb20. i dont buy china junk parts. im pretty much just trying to find a bolt on upgrade that doesnt have ceramic wheels. the car will be used mostly for drifting and im looking to have a powerband close to factory. thanks again
