would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

Ok well i havent taken a look at the turbo yet in person, but this is pretty much what the seller had to say about it.....Just how big is it? what kinda spool if any would i get on my stock block ls? Just trying to figure out if I should pick it up ;)

Its a full T4 turbo that uses a 57trim compressor. This compressor will support 500 flywheel horsepower. Its a full garrett turbo, and is in great shape. No shaft play. The turbine side is a T4 flange, with a rather large A/R (for more top end power, race car kinda stuff, maybe nitrous). Full T4 turbine wheel. The front cover A/R is a .60. 3 inch inlet, 2 inch outlet. 4 bolt pattern discharge on the turbine, and the turbine housing is a spilt pulse entry design

Well I had him bring it over today, I can pick it up for $300, its in damn good shape, heres some pics ;)
Now let me hear some opinions, I have a bmc t3 log mani, so i would prolly have to use an adapter plate....its plate says its a T04E

on what motor. if its a stock block ls or some ----, forget it

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

so its a no go i guess?

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

maybe with a 50 shot to spool it, the ls head doesnt flow well at all, the turbo is huge, and your motor dioesnt rev to utilize the massive top end rush that turbo would provide. i say pass.

so on an ls-vtec do you think you could actually utilize it? its a street car and i really dont want boost for like 2krpm, that would just suck

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

you might spool that turbo..... never

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

I wouldn't listen to hotrex, hes not very optimistic. Before you count that turbo down and out I'd add a tube running from the exhaust mani to your cockpit and when you need boost, just blow into it as hard as possible. Or get a T3/T04.

its split pulse
build a mani for it and ull spool on an ls-vtec
doesnt sound that big
id run it
u can even block off one of the exhaust turbine holes if its that big

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

block off a scroll and it will spool that bitch 8)

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

id like to build a twin scroll collected mani

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

word, jeff is running that big 1.0 AR exhaust housing, spoolup not too bad with one blocked off from what i hear.

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

he told me the bitch would only spool 15 psi even with the wastegate totally disabled.

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

that was before he blocked a scroll off.

before he pulled the turbo off to test the ss auto units he said he was pushing over 20psi.

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

well thats some good stuff to hear, now theres pics so lmk whatcha think ;)

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

???

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

buy it, save it or sell it for more.

Re: would this turbo spool good enough for me....
 

abit big aye.. but its a twin scroll, so youd need a twin scroll manifold..we ran a t3t4 twin scroll, looked same as that, on a 1600 4agze and had full boost 18psi by 4750. then we ran the same turbo on a rb20det without the twin scroll mani and it didnt get boost until 6000.
