What do you think? Its a TA51 .72a/r front and 1.15 a/r hot side. Port the piss out of my motor and bolt this bad **********er up?

holy ****.....you will need some hella exhaust to get that thing going..... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png

Yeah after doing some searching it looks like this is the turbo for someone wanting a million HP and a tiny powerband...probably not for me

https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png that looks big..

Life sized pic? LOL!



Go for it!

do it! big turbos rule! https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

It isn't even efficient till like 28psi https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/ohmy.png

Then run 30psi. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

dude that's like a truck turbo. ajc13b had one and went back to something smaller



mike

sell to vosko LOL https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

my turbo is huge but its just huge enough to be perfect for me https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

Overkill?

Actually it would be good for a half bridge race motor, maybe one day. Its on ebay for anyone who might be interested

do you have any other pics of the turbo? and any way I could talk you into taking off the

compressor housing and measure the compressor wheel?

I have an HKS T45s turbo that is probably similar or the same thing as that. .72 a/r compressor but a .90 exhaust housing. HKS runs there

own exhaust housings, and makes a custom part that fits in the front of the compressor housing.

let me know if you want to sell it. I start making boost around 2100 rpm not much its pretty dead till at least 2500 rpm where it wakes up,

full boost by 3500~3700 just kind of depends on where you start. My car is my daily driver and I love it it has plenty of low end around town.

these pics are old when I was putting it on the car, running a diff manifold now.

I received one of those a week ago and have completed 99% of the install , I still need to finish modifying the oil return line ( problems clearing the very large compressor back plate ,)and making a new discharge elbow . Mine is a bit different in its configuration , it has a 0.6a/r comp. housing , 5" suction withe the diffuser ring in there too , 3" discharge , 76mm compressor wheel , 1.22a/r turbine housing , tangential and divided and 70.8mm turbine wheel .

That turbo is truly massive , one of the largest i've seen , it is sized to flow 92lbs/min of air (950-1000hp) , I would not reccomend it for street use unless you have some "special " porting done to your motor , mine is half bridged with large (no sleeve ) exhaust ports , I am also using a completely devided tubular exh. manifold to aid in spool up.

That pic came off ebay. Some dude in Australia was selling it. So I can't take any measurements, sorry.



Just look at the lighter in the background that will give you a good idea as to how big that bitch really is
