S2000 Forced Induction S2000 Turbocharging and S2000 supercharging, for that extra kick.

Which turbo is better?

First s2k turbo build 5 years was a "budget build". Lets just say I will never do that again. Saving up an extra few thousand would be my advice.

You can find a t3 divided Borg Warner. That is what I have. A s262 divided t3 turbo.

If you are still looking at the turbo in your original post, I would make sure it would fit.

The turbine to center section look like they can only be clocked every 90 degrees.

Idk I kinda feel like t3 has more options.. and plus to run a full twinscroll setup is kinda pricey for a 500 ish rpm spool difference ... just my opinion

Doesnt twin scroll give you pros here?
If i can double torque in 4-7k rpm range i couldnt care less if it dies at 8.5
Sounds like you should be shopping for a Greddy Turbo kit But you wont double the engine trq at any rpm with a Turbo that peaks at 350whp.

I agree, I don't think the benefits of a twin scroll outweigh the extra cost, materials, weight etc, but that is for the OP to decide on what he wants to do.

Yes i wanted twin scroll for spooling faster, but ppl say it wont work well for t3 application. Why are they even making t3 twin scrolls then? Maybe it isnt good for 500+ whp but all right for 400-?

You can get T3 twin scroll turbos, but they typically have small A/Rs. Fast spool, but die up top. You can make it work, but realistically a T4 turbo/manifold will be much better.

And for the love of god, if there's one thing you shouldn't cheap out on it's the turbo. I understand wanting to stay within a certain budget, but I can almost guarantee at the end you'll be more out of pocket than if you had just saved up more money up front and done it all right once.

You can't put a t4 turbo on a t3 manifold, and vice versa
