Hi Stealth, I am getting a hybrid turbo made t3/t4e for my 71 240Z L28ET and wanted to get your advice, you posted this in March....
"I have beem fortunate enough to dyno a number of turbo configurations on Z-cars. And now that I am no longer working for a particular performance shop, I can let everyone in on my experience. I can say, without a doubt, the most impressive Garrett STREET turbo for a Z I have found is a T3/T4E stage V 69A/R 50 trim. It has phenominal spool up (starts at 1700rpm, and 280+ ft/lb of torque at the wheels by 3000rpm on a dynojet), and is capable of 450+ at the wheels. If you want the double throw down set-up, add the Turbonetics ball bearing option. Overall it is a hard combination to beat. The flow and size seems to be perfectly matched to the 2.8L L28 eng."
Just curious if you have tried this configuration for Z's .63 a/r 54 trim? If yes how was it compaired to the .69 a/r 50 trim. The reason I ask is because I talk to a person who tried 3 different turbo on his Lotus and one of them was a .69 a/r 50 trim. The turbo he like the best was .63 a/r 54 trim but that was on a Lotus not a Z. I am trying to make a descission on the two configurations.
Thank You in Advance,
Ron
