EZ-E Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 Its supposed to be a 60-1 Garrett turbo, I cant tell just from looking at it and I cant find a Garrett site that will tell me what the model number is for that particular series turbo. Can anyone give a heads up on this? Second, would this be a good choice over the stock turbo for the ZX? Thanks http://album.hybridz.org/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=10561 Images are in my gallery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proxlamus© Posted March 25, 2005 Share Posted March 25, 2005 well.. first off.. how much is it? Looks like a T4 compressor housing.. so a T3/T04 Also looks like it's not water-cooled but that doesn't matter anyway.. it would definatly be an increase from stock.. but what are you looking for?? the .70 a/r trim isn't the most efficient for your Z... but unless your building alot of horsepower.. i wouldn't worry about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZ-E Posted March 26, 2005 Author Share Posted March 26, 2005 Well the price is 150.00 right now, the exhaust AR is .48, wouldnt that be a bit small for the Z? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proxlamus© Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 This is a 56 and .70 trim.. relatively close to yours... * 6500 rpm red line points for this compressor at all three level of boost are in the 72% to 79% efficiency region. * 3250 rpm "knee" points for this compressor at all three level of boost are below the 65% efficiency region. * When accelerating towards redline, the efficiency increases towards the maximum 79% area, thus performance is best full out. * This compressor would certainly work better with more engine displacement as the horizontal lines would be more to the right * It should be obvious that this compressor can handle even more boost and remain very efficient above the 20psi line. "It can grow with your need for more speed" * Goldilocks says good for a turbo stroker. This is a 50 trim turbo.... * 6500 rpm red line points for this compressor at all three level of boost are in the 75% +/- 1% efficiency region. * 3250 rpm "knee" points for this compressor at all three level of boost are in the 74% +/- 1% efficiency region. * When accelerating towards redline, the efficiency passes through the maximum 78% area, thus performance is ideal during this period. * It should be obvious that this compressor can handle even more boost and remain very efficient above the 20psi line. "It can grow with your need for more speed" * This compressor will give great performance compared to the stock T3-60. * Goldilocks says "just right" This means that a 50 trim T04e would be IDEAL.. and since yours is .48 that is very close.. So it should be "just right" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo2001 Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 It's a 60-1 or something in the T04B family. 7 blades rather than 6 blades like To4E and GT series. looks big enough to be 60-1. NVM, it's To4S, got to be 60-1 or larger. BTW, 56trim is not close to 60-1. 6 blade compressor wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clifton Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 I'm with yo2001. It's for sure 60-1. I would find out the turbine trim. You could get your housing machined to use it's wheel. No way I would run a .48 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proxlamus© Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 ehh.. you guys are right.. read the info wrong... but nifty charts right?? *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
