Turbo sizing question 13BT(stockports)+T04E

.70 compressor...1.00 turbine
divided flange

How well would this work with a cast undivided manifold?

It may work for a while, but I wouldn't want to run a divided turbine housing on an undivided manifold. I have seen cracked exhaust housings from this (cracked on the divided flange going up into the turbine wheel area) and on piston motors, I'd imagine the heat from a rotary would be worse. Just my experience, maybe someone with more knowledge can answer definitively.

I'm trying to find out the trims of both wheels.



Hopefully I get a reponse from the guy.

I thought I might get pounced for not specifying the trim.

I've been around for a while...
Finally got my EMS, so I'm building a kit and turbo hunting...
