Innovative 60-1 vs GT66... observation

Looks like my 60-1 is a pretty crappy choice over the GT66... doh!

Hmm, I'm surprised the 60-1 is less efficient. Is that chart with a stock port? Do you have one comparing the T04S? I guess the 62-1 is a btter chioce over the 60-1.

Starting the chart at 4500 rpm is appropriate for the T66, I suspect you could have started the 60-1 chart at 3500 rpm where it's near full boost. Big difference in spool between these two turbos, my T66 usually reaches full boost by 4000 rpm. I do get significant boost as low as 3000 rpm but the turbo really starts to pull at 4k and up.

as you can see, at lower boost levels the 60-1 is a better choice - higher efficiency at 12.495 PSI.

Is the innovative GT66 just a ball-bearing version of the T66? Are the compressor and turbine wheels the same? T66 is even more efficient at higher boost than 16 psi...

GoRacer - There are a lot of guesstimates used here, but 90% VE should be pretty close for a stock port with a large turbo I think. I have never seen a map for the T04S - if you find one, please let me know

twokrx7 - I have a 60-1 on my car, and it doesn't hit full boost until 5000rpm with a .96 A/R hotside. Looking at many dyno charts online (the torque curves in particular), I have not seen evidence of any large T4 frame turbo hitting full boost until about 4k at the earliest, and most seem to be between 4500 and 5000rpm. At 3500rpm I was only able to make a few psi of boost (maybe 4-5 psi IIRC).

I believe the GT66 is very close to the T66, but I wasn't able to find a map for it. If anybody has a compressor map for the T66, I'd like to run the numbers on that too. As far as boost>16psi goes, most people stay under this level on pump gas, and it's obvious that the T66 will do better up there.

Manolis,

Your boost response doesn't make sense. My T66 Innovative BB will make 10+ psi at 3500rpm in 4th gear. It also makes positive boost above 3000 rpm when floored in any gear. p trim 1.0 AR turbine with a cast manifold.

Anyone know where to find a map for a T04R?

T04S is the same thing as a 60-1 usually. T04S refers to the housing (.7 A/R 4" inlet, 2.5" disscharge). The TS04 (smallest of the big shaft "T" series) is NOT the same turbo (not the same as a 60-1 or T04S) and although will work on a rotary, its not too recommended. Its more suited to lower flowing higher boost application.

Yes, Manolis, your lag is waay off. Have you checked your compression? What are your other mods?

The TS04 map that I posted before is a map that came off of Turbonetics old site. I believe that the TS04 is commonly known to be the same thing as the T04S, T58 and T04S04. The map in this post is a 60-1, clearly not the same as the TS04 map.

The TS04 compressor wheel that goes along with the previous map has a 2.300" inducer and a 3.304" major. Does that conform to the T04S wheels specs that you are familiar with?

TS04 is commonly mistaked as the T04S, its a simple switch of one letter, but its NOT commonly known as the T04S. The T04S like I said is really the name for the compressor housing (.7 A/R 4" inlet 2.5" disscharge). This housing is standard for the 60-1, T-58 compressor wheels. Its also used on GT35 and some times GT30 (CHEAPTURBOS.COM). The 60-1 is just offten refered as the T04S because of this. All the turbo kits available for the rotary that are labeled "T04S" are the 60-1 wheel (Innovative, XS, etc). I've always known the TS04 as simply a TS04. Its a big shaft and the smallest of the "T" series line. It has a fairly tall and narrow map and the T04S (60-1) will out flow it and is more suited for a 13b ported or not. I guess its gotten cunfussed in all the turbo buzz words and lingo, but if someone is looking to use the 60-1 wheel, they should ask for the T04S and NOT the TS04, or they'll be dissapointed.
