hey jadams
i was wondering why u want this biggest turbo you can put under the stock hood? i mean there is no reason to go that big. im running a ta-54 and that will be the biggest turbo i will ever need. what kinda setup do you plan of runnning for this huge turbo? do you plan on running 9's or something? My ta-54 will take me deap into the 10's, o also the Ta-54 is alot bigger then the Ta-60

Re: hey jadams

do you ever get sick of the taste of your own foot?

hey
im not talking about compreeser sizes or anything im talking about how much it flows compared to the TA_60. all these turbos are about the same size on the out side and there are very little difference in the inside. i was talking about flow. the flow on the ta-54 flows alot more then on the 60. so i was saying the 54 is alot bigger because it flows alot more then the 60

i run the ta54 with no problem , but i think with the 3000 stall and the 50lb injectors , with the ported stock intake it would be a nice turbo , plus he is intercooling the car so he really does not need any thing real big just to match his set up now.
but im still going to need good tiresRe: hey
hate to break it to you,but flow is determined by compressor and turbine wheels.pte's #'s have always been funky.take a good look at this:
http://www.gnttype.org/techarea/turbo/turboupdate.html
and compare it to the turbo wheel size chart.if a turbo has the same wheels in the same housings it will flow ~ the same.a pt54 is a ta-61.i don't buy that it flows 20-40 cfm more than the identical parts by another vendor just because it has a pte sticker on it.

no,you are talking about the ta-61,you just don't know it.read this slowly so it sinks in:
a pt-54 and a ta-61 are the same turbo.same wheels,same housings.
you claimed a pt-54 was "way bigger" than a ta-60.it's not,despite pte's inflated flow claims.with the same housing(ta/te)they are about 20 cfm apart.
