Im have been planning on getting an 96+ integra LS. My turbo setup for it will be a 12:1 FMU(till I get money for a hondata), T3 Garrett Turbo, turboX's RFL bov, Intercooler(which are the best for the money?), Tial wastegate, b series intake mani(probably rev hard or drag), and a down pipe(know any good ones that will fit this app?). I will run about 8 psi(until I upgrade my internals). Does this look good to you, and does anyone know an aproximate WHP, from my research, i got about 250?
It will cost about $1800

What the hell is up with you saying that every turbo kit is over rated. I know you just want people to buy your turbonetics kit but please dont put down other turbos. Turbonetics makes great turbos, dont get me wrong, but I know that some Garrett turbos are just as great. Just quit putting down other turbos just to sell your kits. Its f***ing rediculous man.

A little Biased arent you. If they are so over rated, give me and example/reason, and what turbonetics turbo would be better for me.
"Drop Garrett......over rated!" thats a little vague.

One...their ball bearing Turbo's cannot be rebuilt back to spec. Another is their power rating.....to little. Cost too much...anymore....i will post actual numbers soon.

Your T3 Garret's power rating is lower then the same priced Turbonetics Hybrid's that are rated near 500HP. AND...Garrett charges nearly the same $$....go figure.
Your best chioce would be a T04E54, Hybrid, stage II, .63
You may also think about the 57 trim instead of a 54 for that car....

Thanks for the info, I will look into that. Im a newb at all this still and im doing a lot of research, still not 100% sure on what to get.
Also I want about 110hp gain on stock internals, then when I get better internals I want up to 200 hp gain. Is there a good turbo for that, that doesn't have to much lag? ty again
