T3 > Stock Frame? (sub 500 awhp)

well i have a ets t3 twinscroll turbo kit
the twinscroll kit i have.. has the advantages to spool slightly quicker than a standared t3 setup..
i had the red and loved it. also got a black for sale =) lmk

Advantage could be less heat and boost on a T3, but I think spool and ease of a stock frame wins for moderate power levels.

:+1: For any street car that sees daily driving, a stock frame always wins. No T3 kit can make more torque in the 2k-4.5k range than a stock frame (lag you would feel on the street). And if you're staying below 500hp / stock block, the advantages of a T3 wouldn't really come into play.

i always go back and forth on this on what would be better for me...the only thing i am afraid by going stock frame is wanting more and having to eventually move to a T3 set up anyway. I want to get the set right the first time...which is not that easy always

Just make sure you know exactly what you want before you proceed with your quest for more power. I'm the type of person that always wants more power

I have seen quite a few posts from people wishing they would have just went T3 from the get go.

I don't recall ever seeing a post from someone wishing they went with a stock frame instead of a T3.

Just some food for thought. Good luck!
