gm-8 w/ a .48 exhaust side???
 
what'd u guys think this would produce on my b16??? a ported out .48 exhaust housing bolted onto a gm-8 center and intake?? i can get it to work no problem, but i'm really curious as to how you guys think this thing'll perform. someone give me some insight :8

why bother...run the gm8 as is

because the .48 exhaust would be easier to work w/. that way, it would bolt straight up to my mani/exhaust/recirculated dumptube

i think no matter what compressor is on the turbo, a .48 exhaust housing is still gonna choke a b16's power at warp rpms

a 48 housing is what someone used to run a holset on a d16. i think a .60 is the smallest you want to go but i would just ran it as is and change what is needed

do they even make a .60 a/r exh housing. Think your talking about a .63

The exhaust inlet on the GM1~GM8 is a standard T3 style so your manifold will fit to it. I'll take pictures or the GM in a .48 A/R housing.

yeah, i know it's the standard t3, but the dp flange is kinda a pain in my ass

What are the specs on the GM8 turbo? And where can you find them? I haven't seen any on eBay...maybe I'm not looking hard enough.
