Won't work unless you buy the exact same turbo, and even then still it might be different.

The tune mostly dependent on the size of the turbine wheel, the size of the turbine housing, the size of the compressor side, the intake and turbo manifolds' flow, the injectors (not just size, are they the *exact* same units?), and the unique and very particular ground system of each individual vehicle.

Now, since a GT35 is capable of flowing 100+ whp more power than any of the T04E compressors, you are buying a basemap, and not a tune for your setup. Enter in the FACT that your manifold, chassis wiring, injectors, etc, are all different and that ---- isn't remotely what you want to try boosting on.

The price you should pay will reflect the $5 chip, the $5 shipping, and a very modest sum that reflects the value of the seller's time for burning/shipping. I don't think you are getting this, I think you are getting assraped because you don't know ----.

just fully read your post. why in hell would you buy a tune from someone, then buy a turbo to match the tune?
it will not work even if you get the exact same turbo, all cars perform different will still need fine tune.

i thought the hx35s were very similar to 60-1s if u compare their flow charts.......i would think a gt35 would be closer to a hx40 maybe?

peak power ratings are similar, but 60-1 is a T04B compressor, and two generations of design behind GT35. If you take a car tuned with a GT35 and strap on a 60-1, ASSuming identical turbine environment, the tune swings pretty rich and makes less power per psi.

So the 60-1 compressor wheel comes stock in a TO4B truck turbo of some sort? I have a 60-1 compressor assembly sitting right here and it's in a TO4S housing, the EXACT same compressor housing as the GT35R. They are obviously a different wheel though. IIRC the 60-1 is 59mm and the 35r is 61.8mm. I'm just wondering why you said 60-1 is TO4B, but if that's what it comes out of stock, then I see.
