sc61 anyone?
ahhhhh, the SC61 is a GREAT turbo, HUGE in the honda market. They make tons of power and relatively cheap. They are very similar to GT35R's, which are also a great turbo AND also make great power. IDK why you had problems with either, there must have been something else wrong

spend the extra cash and get the 35r...you can get them brand new for under 1100 bucks
*coming from non ball bearing to dual ball bearing is like night and day....espeacially if its a daily driver....

I have a clue.. i've owned three evo's and currently have two in my garage..
The fact that the turbo is a non-ball bearing is reason enough to say that it's a piece..
you guys know everything i guess
20psi on this turbo is a joke in an evo good luck bro..
have fun between 5.5k and 7.5k rpms

i guess thats why borg warner and turbonetics do so horribly in the turbo market
Have you owned a sc61?? or better had one installed on an evo??
theirs a big difference with all of those turbos on an evo
You guys are trolls
This turbo is pretty much the worst pump gas turbo anyone could recommend on an evo..

pumpgas yes, 57 is the max i would run on pump.
But you need to realise, there is 2 different 60 mm turbos that could be tricking people. t3/t4 60-1 which is rated @ 475, and then the T4 60-1 which is basically PT61 same thing just about which is the same as a 35r without water cooling.

Hey bud, type in ETS 61mm in the search category and you will find many results. I have been making threads about the ETS 61mm for about a month now with tons of information: videos, dyno graphs, spool up vids, etc. For those who say the turbo sucks, doesn't have a clue. The turbo is awesome, especially in conjunction with a quality kit turbo kit. Check out all the DTM/ETS threads, they will all have lots of true and factual data. The turbo is also offered in ball bearing now, I know this because I have it.

Haha, I didn't buy this turbo to run on pump gas, I bought it to run with methanol at 30+ psi, and my turbo is ball-bearing. I don't think I know anything though, you are the expert with all the evo experience.

By the way, who is considering buying this turbo to run on pump gas??

A look at the compressor maps reveals the 35R to be considerably more efficient than a 60-1 at PRs where real power is generated. A 60-1 is better suited toward a low pressure application on a high compression V8. A 35R is a better, far more efficient turbo for an EVO.
