.60 cold

um, we need a trim size, not just an AR ratio




Arrival Blue 04 LS Sport
Eco
Turbo
Megasquirt

AR ratio alone its doable. you dont plan on twin charging it, do you.

im running a T3/TO4E......57 trim and .63 AR on the turbine and .60 AR on the Compressor......i made 228hp at 5500 RPM...I also didnt go to the redline at like 6500....i never been to the dyno so i played it safe and only ran it to 5500 RPM....i was only running 9 psi externally gated with 370cc injectors and a FMU.....also stock fuel pump.....was running lean at that time...i definatley have room to improve with a proper tune ( HP ).........so i would say 260 is very doable.....but i would suggest internals to be safe...i dont have any upgraded internals but if it blows it blows.....if it doesnt blow either way it will prolly be upgraded next winter.....

i dont get full boost till like 3500-4000rpm.....youll see it at like 1800-2000 rpm maybe...i like mine were its at......i like the pull at the higher RPM....

what is an ideal size, it should be good for 300whp and efficienct to roughly 15psi......

i dont mind spooling a bit later on at all but i do want something that will let me hit 260, anyone else with info on this subject
