Default Going NA-T... can i use old T3/T4

I have an unused T3/T4 .50 AR turbinetics turbo for an integra build. Has anyone used one on a GS300 NA-T?? Could not find it with search function. Thinking of mounting it on this manifold.

Only trying to get 250 - 300 out of it until i can get my hands on the GTE conversion. I already have the turbo that i was going to put on my integra so this will save money, i just don't know if anyone has done one of these. Any help gals/fellas?

I haven't used one on a GS300 but I have on a Supra. That turbo, with that exhaust housing would give you a very quick spool, fast response but it would choke on the upper RPMS. I would switch out the turbine housing for a ~.63 minimum but a .80-~.9 would probably be best.

Almost certainly at least a .63 already. I believe a .82 is available and may already be on it. As you said it will work and spool very quickly. For the power goal it will work and the price is right. Go for IT! Get it running, have fun, upgrade later...
