Re: turbo Decision
from what I've read in the last 2 minutes the AGP RS49T seems to be a good turbo and would support your goal

Re: turbo Decision
Externally gated 20g. I would actually get something different, but of those I would get the 20g. I'm after a dual bb PTE turbo. Theres a 50 trim and 60-1, not sure which one I will be getting, but I would suggest probably the 50 trim one.

Re: turbo Decision
I'd go with the externally gated 20G, it will support your goal and its a sollid proven turbo.

Re: turbo Decision
I voted for the AGP RS49T (38mm externally Gated) I think you have more room for error so to speak with that

Re: turbo Decision
well I would say that you should consider price including supporting mods and figure out which one will fit your budget better

Re: turbo Decision
SBR 60-1, I think they said they got 555whp out of it, so 400 shouldnt be too big of a deal. Its also like $100 cheaper. I think thats what I will get once the Big 16g gets old.

Re: turbo Decision
The 20g will flow 48-49 lbs/min, the 50 trim will do 50. About the same power capacity. Spool is similar. Lately I like to avoid hybrids and stick to a solid unit that is ordered directly from the manufacturer, no turbo shop tinkering. I like to go full mitsu or full garret. I'm getting lazy in my old age or something...
The 60-1 shouldn't even be mentioned in the same conversation at 60+ lbs/min The EVO3 is nearly as good and quite a bit cheaper at ~42-43 lbs/min, but getting 400 on it requires it to be completely maxed out, and tuned to within an inch of its life. If you really want 400 the 50trim/20g will do it a little more comfortably.

Re: turbo Decision
20g's are just so damn expensive. AGP RS49 internal... Or a PTE BB SCM 50trim..
