This is a lot for a 50 Trim kit. It is an older turbo. A Non BB unit goes for a little over $600, the BB option adds $150 or so. The GT series turbos are WELL over a $1000. The TT Kit is $3,700 so I figured that a 50 Trim kit would be cheaper then the latest style turbo kits?

Eric,
What do you guys do for an O2 housing, would I be able to use my APS downpipe w/ this kit? What size injectors do you guys recommend for this turbo (780's)? I believe this turbo flows roughly 49lb/min whereas a 3076r is around 52lb/min. How about a group buy?

From what I have heard and seen is that the GT3076R and the 50Trim are neck in neck in every aspect but the 50 Trim spools a LIL faster in BB form. Maybe, if the 3076r is wrung out, it'll make more whp.

I didn't see anywhere in the thread about your water injection. I assume these #'s were with something more than just 93? 50/50? meth? what? This kit sounds like it could be one of the best all around turbo kits around. Why didn't you guys do something like this sooner?

The 3076r will out flow the 50trim. It also depends on what 3076r you get, there are so many variations. The 3076r is laggier but will make more top end than the 50trim. I am really impressed with those numbers on a flash. I want to put my kit on soon!
