still a 57trim on a 2.4l, no matter how you look at it
-
it should net me roughly 400-450whp...and yes, i know that logs are not as efficient as equal length tube, but you can control wheelspin with throttle control, you dont have to bury your foot every time you press the gas pedal...there are plenty of people that use this turbo on this motor, also a very popular turbo for the rb25det, which is a whopping .1 liter larger than the KA. and like faber said, it will be a .82 a/r. and this turbo is more efficient than a 57 trim, so there is more headroom, to a certain extent. I am not claiming to be a turbo genius, but I have done my homework/alot of research.

LOL...I am pretty sure I know what I am doing....dont need to ask Faber for advice...I am the one that originally tuned his car when he first got it running with the safc

lol...i see now that came out kinda wrong (sometimes i forget you cant have a "tone of voice" on the internet)...but you know, maybe i will run a safc in mine, so i can continue to improve on my "turbo master" status :icon_cheers:

may be possible to an extent with a small turbo like that
Matt is right, even on my car the 57trim would fall off up top

well, fabers turbo(AMS GT32) is roughly equivalent to a garrett 50 trim, .60 a/r. Which is smaller in size and probably less efficient (AMS wont give out the exact specs) than a GT3076R, .82 a/r. Faber has no problems up top, I dont think I will have to worry about that. There is a guy on ka-t.org that is making 417whp with a similar setup to mine @ 19psi with a gt3076r .82 a/r.

my gt32 doesnt fall off up top! the turbo has a gt3251e CHRA, with custom precision housings. IMO the turbo is like a 57trim out put wise, while spooling like a 50trim(all refering to t3/t4, .63AR)
and WTF do you mean buy 57trim. you need to be WAY more specific about those things. There are thousands of differant 57trim turbos on the planet.

assuming i get my POS together and down to the cities to get tuned....

he means a t3/t4 57 trim... the "tufte turbo". Even I knew that.

I am just saying what i said. my dad gets some people every once and while that come in asking for a 50 or 57trim. my dad knows what they are. but is always like which one, there is thousands and gets the dumbest look on the kids faces.

lol, you confuse me faber, if you didn't mean it, why did you say it, and go into detail?ahahahahah, have you ever met faber? and did you really have to ask?:D

like faber said, trim is nothing more than (ind^2/exd^2)*100
57trim is just a common name given to a popular T04E compressor
My gt42 has a 53 trim compressor and 84 trim turbine....
if you have the trim # and either ind or exd it is easy to find the other

There is a guy on ka-t.org that is making 417whp with a similar setup to mine @ 19psi with a gt3076r .82 a/r.now see i'm running the same turbo same specs, i got the atp 3" v-band.
now with my motor i should see full boost buy say 4800ish give or take based on my monster manifold. now i rev to 9k so i will have a power band.
but unlike you i will not make near the torque you will, so all i'm saying is that you need to look at the fact that it will just make it harder fo ryou to drive the car to it's potential. but i spose we will see next year.

gt3076r, 18 lbs , high 200's for torque.
now this is with a small .48 turbine
