What Trim for a 2.4
Monday, June 04, 2007 4:38 PM
I want to run a turbo setup on stock internals for now, but am unsure of what type of turbo to get.

I have searched, but did not really turn up a definitive enough answer for my liking. I can see that the Super 60 seems to be a popular choice. Is this too much?

Thanks in advance.

for stock internals the 60trim comrpessor, with a stage1 or 3 0.63 a/r have been popluar choices.

What about something like this?

.50 A/R compressor, .63 A/R turbine, .57 trim

or

.42 A/R compressor, .48 A/R turbine, .45 trim

first too big and the second too small?

I am looking for something that will make power through a good portion of the RPMS and hopefully in most if not all 5 gears.

I run a t3/to4b .60 a/r 50trim compressor, and a stage 1 0.63 turbine, if I changed anything I would go to a stage 3 0.63 turbine.

I can have pics later this week. The turbo is in the car now, except for the compressor housing. Its at the shop getting a flange welded onto it to accept the 2.5" charge pipes. Should get it back tomorrow i hope.

T3 super 60 with .60 a/r compressor and .63 a/r turbine is working just fine for me on 5 psi and stock internals.
