Will this turbo be to big the ep3? started to piece a kit together and found a good deal on this exact same turbo.
Garret t3 60-1
im just trying to hit around 300hp first and then upgrade components and or engine so i was thinking this turbo will give me some room to grow and upgrade keeping the same turbo.

Great choice of turbo. If you want the room to grow, the .82A/R turbine housing is a good choice.

If you were going to keep the A3 I would've suggested to keep the A/R of the turbine housing slightly smaller to help with spool time, but since you're planning to build around the turbo later the .82A/R will help you reach peak HP goals with a more efficient and/or higher revving engine.

its a fairly large turbo for the power goal, try to use a .63 A/R if you decide to use it.. best luck i've seen is with a t04E or a precision 5431.

besides the precsision and turbonetics units you will probably get for less..
