its not the boost that is the problem, its the power output.


i could run 20psi on a T3 and make 220hp and be fine. run 20psi on a T4 and POP goes a ring land.

 

what kind of set up woudl you suggest for a stock ka that i want to drive daily?

 

Fmax, Nsport or custom any of those are fine kits. The custom ones are the ones that make the big power. Dennis's D240T the car i was comparing to, his kit uses a revhard manifold, T3/T4 50trim turbo, JWT ecu and 50lb injectors. bigger mafs some other trick parts.

 

my KAT is using a straight T04e turbo (t4 Otrim turbine/T04e 50trim compressor) in a divided .70 a/r housing. With a pulse converter manifold. TEC II ecu with 370cc injectors. sidemount intercooler and other bits/pieces. i plan for 250rwhp after tuning.


oh and its something i plan to drive daily. I used to drive the car with the SR20, daily.

 

was there misinformation in the thread about this? (valid question)

 

im a dumbass so i only knew what about half of that ment, but thanks for the input

 

what the part....about my turbo? sorry to confuse, once you get more into the turbonium era those terms will be understood.

 

yeah im tryin to get edumucated, whats the trim?

 

trim is the relationship between the diameters exducer(the big part of a compressor) and the inducer(the smaller part of a compressor)

theres an equation but i dont know it. Trim= first name of a compressor


50trim T04e = the 50trim compressor of the T04e compressor family.


families are (for Garrett only)
T3( trims are : 40, 456, 50, 60, super 60)
T04b( trims are : S3, Super V, H3, 60-1, 62-1)
T04e( trims are: 40, 46, 50, 57, 60)
Tseries(trims are: T61, T04s or T58, T66, T88, T91, T100)

 

so whats higher/lower trim effect?
