quiet cuz a small exhaust turbine my stg3 .63 on .50 ar compressor t3t4 egay one was kinda loud on my ---- hatch but when i put the motor in my coupe and was running 16 psi it sounded like an air plane! lol

any way how much boost you running hit the track yet.. ?

traction problems from super man spool up rates? got some traction bars on it yet

nascarfan

its at 10 pounds daily but i keep blowing off a home depot clamp from my j pipe, it has a slight bend where the two pipes meet so the clamps cant hold it together, should be fixed mid week
track maybe sometime soon, once my buddy tows my *** and i get some time
my civic is my main concern now because i need some cash to finish both cars and i am selling the built ls that was in the civic and swaping in my cheap semi built dirty d
had to verify the internals on it today and hit up the pick and pull

traction bars are 1/2 done you could say because i got a piece of tubing welded to the two front hooking point or whatever you want to call them and have been looking for some round at work to make the rest, g-jobs own me

Put 4 or more button head screws in the pipe to imitate bead rolling. Or use hair spray. Both will keep it on better, one by sticking, the other by requiring the band expand before it can be pushed off.

JB weld works great for "beading" the ends of piping. ---- will never blow off. T-bolt clamps are absolutely required as well.

No, I think the Garrett designs are about right, it's manifold deign and theory that has gone horribly wrong. .60 T04E with a stage 5 turbine makes boost at 2500 on an 84mm B-series... or a lot later, depending on your manifold.

I wouldn't even bother with your plan to mate a T04E compressor to a stage 1 turbine wheel. Go split scroll for your spool and have large whp top end as well.

Or, go BW... you do realise that Bullseye pays sub-$550 for the much vaunted S372 CHRA, yes? They are not expensive turbos, people just don't know what they are buying at such an insane markup. And the turbine wheels on them are freaking huge for the spool you get out of them - welcome to modern design.
