Default New Turbo time!

Im sure this has been done to death... for which i apologise However, im in a dilema as to what new turbo to get when the saph hits the road again.

Its curently running a T3 on a stage 1 chip. I am however going to go stage 3 before it comes back out again.

The car is a road car and will be used as such 90% of the time. Would you go for a T3 or a T34? I realise the T34 will be better suited for stage 3 and probably last longer, but i love the drive of my T3 as oppose to Waps or Colas slightly laggier T34.

For driveability on the roads, would a T3 not be better? i realise it will probably pop before a T34, but surely more fun?


what do you think? anyone running stage3 with a T3?

it your choice at the end of the day. if you like the drive of the T3 then keep it!

but think it was rhys that said just other day that he got bored without power at the top of the rev range! up to you and your driving styles really!

i had a t34 0.48 on my last engine which was stg3 and it pulled very well and was not laggy at all. The newer engine is a bit laggier but it is on a t34 .63 now but pulls so much stronger

m8 got a t34 with 48 housing and is infront of me by a wing(both on stage 3 set ups) up to the tonne then my 63 takes over so as Rans has said I think the 63 pulls alot stronger higher up the rev range. I don't really suffer from too much lag while driving the saf around
