Re: Turbine Blade Clipping???
I read somewhere that clipping reduces efficiency. think about it, if it's letting exhaust out easier that means that the turbine isn't going to spin as much because the exhaust is getting around it without having to push it out of the way as much, so you'd get more lag.

Ive seen the dyno charts of clipped turbines and it wasnt worth the added spool up time because the clipping only helps soo much, you need a bigger exhaust housing. If you have a .48 T3 exhaust housing, go to a .63 T3, thatll give you a power gain and the .63 is equal to a .48 stage 2. If you need more exhaust flow then that, go to a stage 3 turbine (i think i have one around here i can sell if you want)
Won't you need a bigger fin or spindle set-up on the exhaust side then?

not on a t3 if you switch the a/r of the housings, they are the same size... but flow differently... this only applies to turbines though, i imagine a t25 you could get a bigger housing for too maybe.. but i bet itd be hard to find.
