GT35x2 vs On388x1-Best China turbo(s) for 1001whp?
Since everyone wants 1000whp, I'll set the tone for this topic at 1001whp
Twin GT35 Copies with .82 turbine housings
or
Single on 3 88/83 (old school PT88 Copy)
Question is simple-which comb will
1) Spool faster
2) Make more with the gates pinned shut.
Lets assume this is on the ever-so-popular stock bore/stroke 5.3 with a Ls1 intake, small turbo cam and 7k rpm redline. Comments and general banter welcome! Evidence for opinions always appreciated

edit, it appears there’s many options in the t3, only one option in the t4. I would suggest the t4 for anything LS.

Those Chinese 66mm T3/T4's would probably work well if you go a tad beyond stock heads... Should spool like crazy even in .81. Now whether or not the T3 will hold you back from making 1200BHP (~20% drivetrain loss) is the real concern.

Do you by chance know what the PT88 compressor was rated at? I can only find a rating for the new MVS wheel. The 61mm 35r is rated at "65lbs/min" but they have made as much as 700whp and trapped mid 150's on little 4 bangers so i'd say it was undertated.

I just went through this (and i think you may have even commented)
I originally opted for the real gt35 sized knock off (61/62, t4 with a .63 housing) but i only found 2 other people using them with results
1st guy- stock 5.3, ls6 cam (iirc) and e85, made 730 at 18psi through an auto
2nd guys- dehnam, with his 6.0, only made 500whp/800tq.
So sent them back and got a pair of 66/64 knock offs with a t4 .81 housing. This is on a 228/228 cam 6.0 on pump and meth with cut heads (10-1CR) Car made 390/390 on the motor, still a couple weeks from dynoing on the boosts

What do you mean by "like" drive pressure? As in they are not as effected by a poor ratio?

No idea what wheel they copied on the new 88/83 turbos. And we have no idea what the china gt35's flow either. So no way to know for sure without experience. I'd look into the 76/65's for twins. They have been proven to make 4 digit power at the wheels many times.

I would agree a straight T4 would provide the proper dividends vs a T3/T4 at that power level. Same P-trim wheel is used in either often times so it's really a matter of better flowing housing.
I would go larger than the 61mm's even if my goal was less than that. My .02 anyway.

Im the "other guy" using the t4 gt35s
They made 730 at 17psi in my irs gto, unlocked converter.
I ran them up to 25-26 psi a few times but im sure they were out of breath there.
I reeaaaallly doubt theyd make 1000hp on anything without a burn it down tune up on an optimistic dyno.
They spooled lighting fast and carried great to 7k, but i dont think they can move enough air to make a grand

But it was based off your experience that i decided to go bigger. I figured with a cammed 6.0, they would choke alot sooner.

Ls6 cam
Car weighed 3860 without me in it, probably close to 4100 race weight
It went 127 at 8psi
135-136 at 17-18 psi
Went 140 at 24#
Had some trans/converter issues the last time i went to the track
Think it would have gone a little faster on kill

i have the 6162 gt35 t4s on a 4.8. i am a 4l80e swap away from throwing everything they can make at it, and it sounds like ill need bigger ones to meet my eventual goals.

You will be able to make more on the 4.8 than people on 5.3s and especially 6.0. Are they China turbos? I cant find cheap China T4 35's.

these are the ones i have:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/CXRacing-T4-...RS2egM&vxp=mtr
my combo is mild ported 5.3 heads, tu0 cam, and a 4.8 rotating assembly in a l33 block. I have a ~3600 converter and 4l80e going in soon and am converting the truck to AWD at the same time.
I had it in a s10 with a single ebay gt45 and beat on it pretty hard. i wrecked that so i moved the motor to a full size and did the twin kit.
when i was looking for turbos i wanted something that spooled fast and couldnt really find anything else that seemed right. the next step up i considered was on3 t70s which i felt were too big, i am glad theres something in the middle that i could use if i need a small upgrade
I figured for $500 for the pair i couldnt lose, and worst case was i had a running t4 twin truck i could fit any other t4 to in the future
