Re: turbo ls project
too small turbo. You would need at least a 60 trim 0.60 a/r compressor on this 0.48 turbine..

Re: turbo ls project
it pulls pretty good for the size. it was just rebuilt by garrett and all i paid was $100. it will work for now.

Re: turbo ls project
its pretty small for an ls. but i guess you cant argue with 100 bucks.
those manifolds tend to cause boost creep. everything looks good so far. keep up the good work , and keep us posted. |
Re: turbo ls project
im putting my 255 fuel pump this weekend. i have a 2.5 downpipe going to a stock cat and pipes with a aftermarket muffler. i know tons of restriction. i cant afford another exhaust right now but after i replace it ill dyno her. im running 9psiright now i have a friend thats going to give me a manual boost controller for free so ill turn it down to 7 or 8 to be on the safe side.
i have some lag in first but it pulls pretty good in 2-5. even in the top end still pulling. im inpressed with that t3 its off an saab 9000. i saw the motor in the local junk yard. it was pretty dirty and the turbo looked new and i found a garrett rebuild tag. no shaft play or wobble. and yes all i paid is $100 damn i was lucky! |

Re: turbo ls project
looks like a pretty clean setup to me.....if it runs good and is pulling fine then the 100 dollar turbo is the SH@t!
