i recently picked up a t04e in trade with a 1.32 hot side. is anyone actually using this? when does it spool? 1.32 seems huge to me, if it spools late i will switch to something a little more reasonable. The motor ill be using is a large SP 13b.

I'm using it with a .96 and it's awesome. I used to sport a 1.15 and it was a little laggy. Once it hit though, it was game on.

 

Which E? I've used a 1.32 P trim on a 50 trim E, worked great..

 

i'd probably go a little smaller, 1.32 is pretty big. i had a 1.15 and it was pretty laggy, but tolerable
then i switched to a .81 collected on the same turbo and it was almost like a stock turbo!

this was all on a medium sized streetport s5 TII


if you have a large streetport i'd personally go with a .96 ptrim

 

i believe its the p trim wheel, the cold side is a .70 a/r with according to the p.o. the 57 trim.

thanks for the knowledge guys, i appreciate it.

i'd think you'd want a little more compressor than a t04e 57 trim with that big streetport and big turbine housing, but hey whatever

 

ive decided to swap the hot side to the .96, the car is mainly a fun on the twisties/autocross car so i need it to boost a little quicker than the 1.32 would allow. where is a reputable place to buy just the turbine housing? i looked online, but only found a few sites that carried it, none with a list price.

I have a T04E with a .84 and it spools awesome with my large streetport. I made 380whp @ 1 bar on the older smaller ported motor. The .96 should be pretty good but the compressor is too small to make anything greatly over 450 wheel.

 

i bought a turbine housing through a forum member that was a deal for turbonetics. turbonetics sells the turbine housings alone. they are around 200bucks plus shipping
