bd manifold on the way

whats up guys, i just ordered boost designs downpipe and exaust manifold today, next thing i want to get is the actual turbo.
any one have any suggestions on what to get, i want the turbo to kick in at 4k, and my hp goal is around 270-300.

awesome, how much did you pay for em? Take some pics when you get em!!

well, on the boost designs web site it says the price, but i paid $550 for the downpipe and exhaust manifold, and then ground shipping was only $12.18 or something like that.

^and by kick in i mean full boost .lol.

T04B S-Trim compressor with a .69ar turbine. Thats what I'm running and it spools around 4k. Then again I am putting a 3" downpipe on soon so it could be spooling sooner. If that doesnt' work for you, there is a .57ar and a .84ar turbine housing avaliable. If you want, I have a .96ar turbine housing for one here. 6k spool lol.

I just recieved my Boostdesigns intercooler today. BD kicks ass!

i'm drueling guys.. screw this shit, i'm going to win the lottery..

6K???? haha, no no i dont think i want that, but i think i think i would like it to be at full boost at 4k. how much did you pay for your turbo fanatic?

i wish i could win the lottery also, i hate my $6.15/hr job, it takes so long to make money, but atleast my boss likes me and gives me 22 hrs a week.

and where did you buy it at?(the turbo)^
and would the t04b fit on the boostdesigns exhaust manifold and downpipe?
whats the difference between the t04b and t04e?

nice buy man.

F*** I'm a dumbass. No the T04 won't fit. Just use a t3/T04E and try for a larger ar. I don't know what they offer for T3/T4s in ar, but I would look from .65-.80ar. I would go with a 50trim so you get a broad powerband.

.48, .63, .82 ar is what t3/t04e's come in. i think im gonna buy my turbo from here http://www.turbocalculator.com/sale-garrett.php or do you think thats to overpriced?
what are the advantages/disadvantages for a larger trim and smaller trim? i think its how fast it spools, but im not positive.

The 50 trim will have a broader range, but the 57 trim will put out a little more power.

Turbine trims will affect spool.

what about the a/r?? what does that stand for??

area/radius

and thats total area of what : radius of inlet/outlet??

Read the stickies in the forced induction forums. Its one of those things you know, but you can't explain. And if you do, it will come out wrong.

sounds confusing..

haha ok.. i was gonna say its kinda hard searching for area/radius on google.. doesn't give you much to do with turbo.. i'll try other keywords and the f/i forums..

I think thats what your looking for
