PT51 vs Garrett 60

[rking]

Right now I have a PT51 on my car. Would I see any benefits to going to the Garrett. Is the Garrett even bigger? I am not too familiar with the Garrett and how much HP it will support and the flowing ratings of it. TIA

Here is a chart for wheel comparisons. From times I have seen on here the 60 series always outguns the 51 series.

Garrett 60?

How fast can that turbo go. I know the 51 will support low 11s, is the 60 faster than that. TIA

Yes, did the chart make sense to you? It is more or less like a food-chain with the 66 being at the top. If you look at the chart the 60 has a larger compressor wheel. This turbo has gone 10's with the right combo. I don't know anyone doing that with a 51. A 52 can but at very high boost and the progression in turbos go on.
