well ive been peicing together a turbo kit some what and ive come together with all this i just wondering what everyone would think about this turbo for my 2.4 I think it would be decent for when i get to the point of rebuild and stuff then i can really throw some power at the motor heres the link
clicky
but the rest of the parts would be this
-forced fabs oil feed and return kit-
-exploited racings external dump manifold-
- rc 440cc injectors-
-emange with all the works-
-turbo xs rfl bov-
-tial 38mm wastegate-
-3 in turbo back exhaust-
-62mm tb with matchin intake manifold-
-2.5 intercooler piping with johnny race cars 6 inch black intercooler-
-3 inch highflow cat-
- gauges will be egt, boost, wideband o2-
-secret cams-
-arp head studs-
i will be running like 6 to 8 psi till i rebuild the head and motor. Im looking into 2.3 oil pump conversion still since we all know the stock one isnt the greats thing since sliced bread, 20 over 9.5.1 pistons with rods. if im missing anything that i didnt list please leme know or just give me ideas thanks

i think that turbo is too large

how far do you really think you'll be pushing that turbo as far as efficiency?

i mean if you're fully forging your engine and don't really care for spool I guess it would work good

if you can find me a compressor map I can give you a better opinion, but i'd say that turbo is a bit too large

... how is that too big?

.48 A/R... looking at the two housings it looks like they're saying both housings are .48 a/r.... a 50 trim turbo with a stage 3 turbine isn't really that big at all.

PJ - not to really question you persay but can you explain why it's too big?

I'll explain why I don't think it's too big: plenty of members are running larger turbo's than that with good spool and great efficiency... I've never heard of a "super 50" trim, but if it's a 50 trim compressor than that's not too big as far as T3 wheels go. And a stage 3 wheel will help it with spool... and .48 for an A/R in MY OPINION is too small for any LD9 setup, be it on the compressor or turbine side.

As stated, a compressor map would help GREATLY right now... but I don't see why that turbo based off just those #'s would be too big. It would have a very quick spool, and great response... my only worry would be the breathing up top at a mildly high PSI... (this is where the compressor map comes in).

That's my opinion.

And if you think that turbo is big - check my registry.
