looks like the size of the ebay turbo's .60 comp and 1.15 turbine. For a 13B application, I would say this combination is wacky. comp too small, turbine too big for street.

I believe these are good on diesel trucks???

I thinking put it in my lex sc400. there is v8 engine 4 litre.

at 7 psi I need 35-40 lbs/min air flow and at 10-12 psi about 50 lbs/min
will that turbo be good?

I don't know...but thinking about the manifold. It will be hard to take advantage of the divided housing. 8 exhaust pulses into two sides. Other than that, it should spool nicely...granted the turbine housing can handle the V8 the compressor might work since V8's don't typical redline to high.

Good Luck.

The design of the lexus V8 in the SC400 leaves no room for a turbo / twin turbos in the engine bay. There are no successful turbocharged SC400's in the US for a reason. With the cost associated of the custom kit and stand alone fuel management, you are better off swapping in a 1JZ or 2JZGTE.

Good luck
