Borg S480 vs Garrett GT80
Borg S480 vs Garrett GT80 Looking at two turbos for doing my rearmount build.
Borg Warner S480 with a 92mm turbine wheel and 1.10 divided AR.

Budget Garrett GT80 with a 94mm turbine wheel and 1.08 open AR.

They are within $50 of each other. Which would be better for me and why?

I don't want to run a spool valve. I'm hoping a 4500 stall and a 75-100 shot of nitrous will be enough. I'm really wondering what's the better turbo efficiency wise? Which one is capable of more power at 15-18psi?
At 15-18 psi it will be a very close race. Both flow 119lbs/min.
How about some instances where one would be a better choice than the other? I just wondering if the Extended Tip Technology of the Borg is actually getting you something or not.
Which one has a better/more efficient turbine wheel?
Which one has a lighter turbine wheel and compressor wheel?
Which compressor cover do you like the most?

The turbine's covered-
I'd be interested to know which comp wheel is used... 4508 or T80 style.

Housing and cover need specified in post because they come several ways
1.32 96mm T6 with 80mm compressor and std cover is a box unit -S480SX-???
S480 is generic name and with only 80mm being specific spec.
ST80 is T4 housing and 80mm compressor I believe.
SX is T6 plus other stuff that needs specified in post. May have 96mm turbine std???

I would really like to hear from our Sponsor about some specifics on the two turbos I listed in my original post. Just telling me they are about the same is useless. Why hype the ETT stuff if it's "about the same" as the Garrett stuff? What about their turbine wheels and how efficient they are? Weights? Compressor covers, etc, etc.

The ST and SX use 83mm and 87mm turbine wheel respectively and now also a new 92mm turbine wheel. As for quality and durability, both are awesome and parts are easily available for either.
