TOO BIG - which means tons of lag...
Unless you got a 20B?

excuse me but wouldnt a T-72 be bigger than a T-76? and it was mentioned earlier that a T-76 would be too laggy for this application, though i do not exactly agree, unless the "q trim" part means something significant.

Turbonetics catalog shows the T-72 smaller (i.e. less capacity) than the T-76.&nbsp In fact, the T-76 is a jump up in price over the T-72.

I claim the T-76 too laggy due to the fact that the wheels and shaft are just too big (i.e. heavy) to spin efficiently.

What's your target horsepower? As RETed said it's too big for a stock motor. If I were you I'll keep it. Just in case you'll have a crazy idea on a future project. If not let me know.

q trim is quite sinificant, relates to the design of the exhaust wheel. i am pretty sure q trim would be laggy as hell.
