Question with my new motor sig built, how would the TE60 act with a larger exhaust housing say a .85 (currently has a garrett .63)?
 
Not positive but I think you gain up top lose a little down low. I beleive the genreal consensus is stick with the .63 if you drive it on the street. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong :).
 
.82 housing

I have a .82 housing on mine,not sure if you can get a .85 .It will be for sale in the next couple of weeks.I bent some blades on the compressor wheel,:mad: only reason for getting rid of it.If you want one get back with me in a week or so.I already have the turbo sold,and I wont be needing the exhaust housing.I ran 11.0s @ 122mph,with all stock heads,intake,and everything else (super6) and I ported.I think it would have went into the 10s pretty easily before the damage was done.It may spool a little slower ,but then hold on.:biggrin:
 
vacum6,it's hit or miss on that pte.85.you have a good build but the 12 inch 2800 may not be up to the task.i think you should try the pte.63.it will be a little slower to spool compared to the garret.63 but pull stronger up top,the pte.85 i found really softens up the bottum end.it's one of those things you would have to try to know for sure,in my case i lost mph and et with the pte.85 on my 49 car and this was with a 10.5 inch 3200 stall lockup.i found with my car the pte.63 only went faster than the garret.63 with boost levels above 22psi.i hope this helps good luck
