Do you mean .60 compressor a/r and .48 turbine a/r?
I need to know what compressor trim I need... 50, 57, 60

Re: Which turbo to go with? D-series..
Since I like dirt cheap performance invest in oxy/acetylne tanks and a torch...or plasma whatever...
1.) Find a Junkyard that has half-off day. (but go on the day when they let in the new cars.)
2.) Map out which cars you want to hit up IE: probes, SVO mustangs, $$$Turbocoupes preferebly auto TB's because they have .60comp/.48 turbine whereas the manual ones get the bigger .63 turbine. both are capable of the same power because of the same compressor blade size but the .48 turbine will spool a lot quicker in your honduh$$$ DSM's..saabs volvos mercedes blah blah blah.
-You can cut out about 10 turbos in one hour at the jy with a torch whereas it might take you three hours of bleeding knuckles, running out of PB blaster and stripping out bolts/sockets. Boom! use the best compressor side you can find out of ten and the best exhaust side you can find and you'll have a nice turbo. If it's not half off day go and be a pirate and throw your turbos in a trunk of a car where you can easily rip the backseats out with a butterfly knife.
3.)Come back on half off day 1 turbo = $50 at my jy....BUY ALL 10! Think about it, P.O.S. turbos sell on ebizzle for $100 if they are doctored properly with a wire brush...the kids with JDMZZZ!lolzerz!typeRGSR tattooed on their dickwill scream for them.
-So initial investment = $200 oxy/aectylene tanks w/ torch + 10 turbos ($500) =$700. While retaining one turbo and selling 9 for ~$100 a piece (maybe a little higher or lower...whatever) equals out to $900
4.) So In conclusion (yes i'm in fifth grade,) you get a nice welder, a good turbo and $200 for more funds to your car...and you can probably do this twice a month before you tap out that junkyard...so the incestment doesn't stop there. Ortherwise what I like to call "Gangin' Change."

.60 compressor .48 turbine ---> 48/60
.60 compressor .63 turbine ---> 63/60
.42 compressor .48 turbine ---> 42/48
Why is the 42/48 have the compessor listed first? I don't know. This is how I've always heard/read them and so has everyone I know on here or I deal with.
Compressor = Cold Side
Turbine = Hot Side

.63/.60 is going to be a couple hundred RPM later to spool and hit full boost. It has more "potential" for power with the bigger exhaust side. More for a built motor or those not concerned with lag and want a all at once hit of power. However, many built Ds sport the .48/.60 and do well, but will any kind of high end power I'd reccomend the .63/.60. I have a hybrid Volvo/Chryslar (NOT t3/t4 I have different wheel) .63/.60 and I get 10.5psi at 4200rpm. It's fine for me, and I like it.
