what are you planning to do? I need a little more info before i can help ya out here are you planning on buying a kit or building your own? Kit's give u almost everything but building your own turbo kit is much cheaper? What are you looking to get out of it as far as hp?

 

[Regulator23]

risk with building your own tho, is you then have to get everything measured out correctly and such... and can sometimes more tedious than some want.... id build my own...but if u want a quick fix go with a greddy turbo kit and switch out the turbo later or go HKS GT0z4 kit :-D only 7k ahahah

i would order a greddy kit myself thats wat i think im gonna do i hear it comes with the e manage software now

Are you talking about companies or types of turbos? If you are talking types, like T3/T4, then please tell us more on what your goals are. When do you want to reach full boost? What HP numbers are you looking for?

Well now where do we start. Each turbo has its own effeciency "area". A T3 Super 60 will perform diffrently than a T3/T04b. There are diffrent trim levels which give an idea of where they effeciency of the turbo is. What you will need to look for is effeciency graphs for the turbos.

This is a effecinecy graph or map for a T3 Super 60 turbo. On the X axis or the lower axis is the amount of intake your car requires. There is a equation on how you get a number to see where you start at.

CFM = (L x RPM x VE x Pr)/5660
L= engine size in Liters
RPM= Rev per MIn
VE= Volumetric efficieny
Pr= Pressure Ratio.

VE is .90 or 90%
Pr= (14.7+boost)/14.7

You will need to figure out at least two points on the graph. One at idle where the PR =1 and one at redline so you can figure out what kind of effency you are getting out of the turbo. OR once you have the two points you can figure out the turbo that has the best effency for your application.

I'm sorry if I sound like a newbie, cause I guess I am when it comes to turbos. What does the trims mean? LIke a 50 trim, 60 trim, 70 trim? Also what is the A/R rating? Thanks

if you want a get either get a drag turbo kit or a revhard..... but if you have the mony get a full race turbo kit
