^^any link to this, I'd like to check out specks, pics, price. thanks

 

Thats the turbo I think my AMS kit came with the Garrett "Dual BB 50 Trim"

 

One Thing is for sure. On straight Pump gas the 50Trim not only spools faster (BB) but makes more power then a 30R. Race gas the 50 Trim is maxed at 500WHP.

 

I would like to find out this information for sure, if anyone knows or can tell me how to get it!!!! THX ZEUSS HOLLA on this if u can

 

That AMS kit is KING but god damn $4300 for a 50 Trim kit Vs. $3000 for the Buschur.

 

Yea well theres a lot of talk that says the GT30 is great but from what I and other members have seen is that the dynos of 50trims are making the same if not more power on pump and the same if not more (480-510whp) on meth or race gas. Also, I dont see too many 3076Rs outspooling 50trims either. Old school diesel technology must rock.

 

You can call the vendors or better yet, copied and pasted from AMS's website:

AMS 304 SS Thick Wall Tubular header
Garrett 50R Ball Bearing Turbocharger

Lightweight 3" or 4" intake pipe with K&N cone filter for either MAF or standalone ECU applications

Braided Silicone Coolant Lines
Slim line fan
All necessary hardware and gaskets
50R Turbo Kit - 475-500WHP

Spool 3100-3600 RPM

 

I managed to get mine in the AMS group buy.... so I saved a few bucks...

 

Try a search on "Garrett ball bearing 50 trim"... Google and other search engines are our friend

 

Some more pics I found of the DBB Garrett 50 Trim




Need a T-series that packs a huge punch. Look no further. Dual ball bearing Garrett T3/T4E, T04E 50 trim compressor with 3" inlet and 2" outlet. Stage III turbine wheel with T31 4 bolt. T3/4 drain flange. Coolant in/out required (14mm threads - same as GT series ball bearing). Great 450HP turbo. Available A/R, .48, .63, .82

 

Best Street Turbo there is for our cars, cannot be BEAT IMHO. This was also true for the DSM's.


You cannot go wrong with a 50Trim, you will love it.

 

On a daily driver I would say the differences would be minimal. However, the GT30 has a lot more to offer and can take a lot of boost. (Well actually takes a lot of boost to get moving). The GT30 on my sube would need 26-28 psi to hit the sweet spot.

 

As much as people like 'em... NO STREET RACING VIDS ON EVOM!

That second vid is ****

 

It's said that the TO4 derives from "old" diesel technology, well actually it is a versatile unit, as it also saw duty at the Indianapolis 500 on 1200 hp Buick Indy car engines. I even had a John Meyer's modified TO4-E(called a TE-50) on my Buick Grand National and it was a great street/track turbo that was used on many 11 second street Buicks. On the Buicks it was good for up to about 575 all engine HP.

I could see how outfitted with a dual-ball bearing center section and one of Garrett or Turbonetics' 4" inlet compressor housings a TO4/T3 hybrid(50-Trim),would be a killer turbo on an Evo. I would prefer it to a 3071 myself and have no doubt that it would compare favorably to a properly configured GT 3076/3037 turbo.

It's good that there are so many choices when shopping for a turbo kit. I only wish that they were a bit less expensive. Maybe 'll have enough cash in hand the next time AMS has a group buy on the 50T kits. The 50-Trim users really do make a convincing argument for the "old" technology TO4/T3 and back it up with impressive dyno sheet proof...especially on pump gas.
