replacing te63 what turbo to get

[83 intercooled]

I think it's time to replace my te63 and I want a billet one what turbo should I upgrade to to go faster on a stock bottom end I been as fast as 10.69 @126 1.50 60ft and this is a street car thanks for the help

Do you want to go faster? Not much will go faster without increasing the boost?

Yes and something that pulls harder top end and not sacrifice spool up

You've only trapped 126mph so far. Your current turbo isn't close to being out of breath. You may pick up a slightly quicker spool but boost will need to be increased to increase power. The MFS 6265 is a winner for a 130mph application with heads and cam and boost under 30psi. Of course the valvetrain needs to be stable and the converter has to be a quality unit or you won't get the most out of these turbos

I got a ptc 9.5 so I'm good there and I'm looking to get some more mph so I should turn it up cause I'm only at 21 psi now so I'm trying to get low tens on this motor

Before my Te 63 gave up ( shaft play) I was running 10.51. I had no intentions of ever changing it. I think that there was a Te63 and a 63e which I believed had the actuator on it. I had the .85 housing and no actuator, no tap on the compressor housing and two delta gates. Everyone called it a big shaft turbo. You are moving pretty good with a turbo that has been out since the late 90's. ( Mine was from ESP in 1996) By the way you, mentioned "stock bottom end", no caps or girdle? Rolling the dice....(I hear ya). I was told that the turbo was good to about the 10.30 - 10.40 range.

I'd say it's good to 10.0 with today's converter technology

Not sure it say m24 and 3in 2 out .63 ar

And it has 63 curbed on it by the outlet to the intercooler

 

[bison]

It's a t04e cover

Is that cover any good how much would it cost for you to upgrade the turbo to better parts

 

[bison]

If there's nothing wrong with it then there's no point in doing anything to it. It's a typical e cover. Not ideal but not hurting anything right now
