Turbo Upgrade

.50T COMPRESSOR WHEEL

STAGE III

T04 " O " T3/T4

.70 A/R TURBINE HOUSING

COMPRESSOR HOUSING A/R .50 TO4E


3" INLET


Hot side: Divided Tange T3 inlet exhaust housing with a .70 A/R

Cold side: 3" inlet intake with an O-trim compressor wheel and a .50 A/R

The divided tange allows for quicker spool up
Turbine Wheel:

Exducer: 2.54"
Mayor : 2.89"


Compressor Wheel:

Exducer: 2.23"
Mayor : 3.31"

Turbine Housing:

.70 " DIVIDED TANG FLANGE "


Think that would be a worthwhile investment? I'm looking for somewhere near 350hp.

i can tell by reading that your looking at a shitty e-bay turbo. not a worthwhile investment. Similar money to fun returns as lighting the cash on fire.

Here's what's wrong with this info...

It could be a "50T" (read: "fifty trim"), but there is no way there is such a thing as a ".50T".


STAGE III
Compressor wheels are not described as "STAGE III".
There is such a thing as a "STAGE III" turbine wheel (for a Garrett T3).


T04 " O " T3/T4
There is such a thing as an "O-trim" T4 turbine wheel.
There is no such thing as an "O-trim" T3 turbine wheel.

.70 A/R TURBINE HOUSING
Wow, something that makes sense!


COMPRESSOR HOUSING A/R .50 TO4E
Another thing that make sense, but...


3" INLET
All "T04E" compressor housings are 4" inlet.
All T04B compressor housings are 3" inlet.
The above mentioned "TO4E", so WTF???


Hot side: Divided Tange T3 inlet exhaust housing with a .70 A/R
Although not common, I've seen divided T3 turbines...

Cold side: 3" inlet intake with an O-trim compressor wheel and a .50 A/R
No such thing as an "O-trim compressor wheel".
"O-trim" is a Garrett *TURBINE* wheel.


Think that would be a worthwhile investment? I'm looking for somewhere near 350hp.
Like snowball mentioned, it's an SSAutoCrap or XS-Power turbo...which I will never touch with a 10 foot pole.
