Quoting Speed_Racer:
How do you figure? 10>3 correct? The E316G is a great turbo, and is(was?) seriously my plan for my car. However having seen the E10 turbo on an Evo I and how quickly it spools, being twin scroll vs single scroll of the E3, I would have to say it is an evolution in turbo design. Sure its not really any larger than the E316G, but quicker spooling = /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif for me.
No I actually don't consider 10>3 just because it's newer. As far as I can tell, the Evo3 16g compressor can make just as much power as the Evo8/9 stock turbo and the Evo10 turbo is actually smaller than the 8/9. My gut feeling is we are splitting hairs between any of these 16g varients in power and spool and it's simply not worth the hassle and cost. Granted, I don't bother with worrying about spoolup until the turbo has issues on gear shifts at the dragstrip. But whatever works for you and your goals. If you are worried about spool, I'd be running a 6cm/14b instead. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
