Using the cam phaser deletes you will lose power FYI
Now back to the turbo-
These engines are like 2 subi engines. The STS systems uses a 62mm so I was copying that. I am a newb when it comes to turbos/sizes/ARs
I seen a 5.3 Chevy with a hx35 holset 58mm? made good power but super high EGTs.
The bigger eBay turbo would boost later which from my understanding is better on the tranny. The bigger comp. might make up for the added heat of the cheap turbo. I heard these turbo are a knock off a Brazilian Master Power turbo which is a knock off the old Garret's if that makes scense.
