jagojon3: what does "its got no crank wall" mean? so this turbo aint gunna cut it?

Re: custom turbo for LX450
 

No the turbo should be fine if it lives up to his description.

He actually means no "shaft play" which would be axial play of the turbo's shaft and wheels, moving in and out. You want none of that. While slight side to side play may be alright, as long as the fins aren't hitting the housing(s).

The reason I laughed is because he used the term crank walk. Crank walk is axial play of a crankshaft, which is a somewhat common problem with certain Mitsubishi 4g63 motors. Crank walk and shaft play are the same type of movement, and they both are extremely detrimental to their respective unit (turbo or engine).

This must be a mitsu guy or something, he probably uses the term crank walk a lot ;)

Re: custom turbo for LX450
 

so from this very limited pic and description can someone say what this is. Guy told me its a garrett. He cant even tell me if its a t3/t4 hybrid or just a t4

Re: custom turbo for LX450
 

The description says T3/T4, so now you're telling me he's not sure what kind of turbo it is?

Sorry, I personally can't tell just from looking. Someone here can for sure though.

is this the same as a 60-1? what is the a/r ratio of one of these supra turbos

Re: custom turbo for LX450
 

WoW dusty, you're really playing forum tag LoL! I've seen u on 3 forums already! Keep your nose in here 2. Find me a 1fz-fe dyno. Any mods (I don't care) as long as it's normally aspirated. Have you seen one? Can you dig one out???

here is a dyno-stock and turbod with a $7000+ AVO turbo system.

I have no plans of running this motor even close to 5000 rpms. I like the way this dyno levels off at 4000rpms. For now I wont be running multiple injectors and certainly wont have fancy engine management. I only want 6psi for now and 300hp would be plenty. Experience has shown this motor (which has no mods) handles low booste without help. if the turbo works alright once I get it on there I will start with a supra in-tank fuel pump swap and possibly a boost controled fuel pressure device.
