I just recieved my turbonetics 60-1 and will prove it works well in a few months. ;)
Actually, the w-bodys already proved it works great as one car just hit a 10.92 @ 125 on a stock gtp block with stock l36 heads. 60-1 turbo with 18 psi. [img]graemlins/bowdown.gif[/img]
Well it is typical...ppl use the comp maps as their stone proof...well it doesn't really work that way in the real world...Yes that is what the T70 is "suppose" to do...but have you seen the turbine map? Do you know what turbine wheel + exhaust housing can provide you with the best combo? It is more complicated than looking thru numbers...don't get me wrong that is part of the art...I tell ppl reality and paper do not sometimes blend...
Anywayz you have a point...you want power that wheel will do it...what about the other 3 ppl that have this turbo?
And one final thing, look at the comp map...anytime you see a map that skinny...it generally means it is a PRESSURE map...meaning the wheel will do well with a lot of pressure...when yo see a 'rounded' map...it signifies FLOW

and you know links is having great results with his........
so If I and the others are so wrong why don't you show us what we should have used to pick our turbo instead of blabing that your right... all you did was cut down my "proof" as you stated, witch i was only giving an example of what i used to pick my turbo not using it as proof so i'm not wrong...
I don't care if i'm wrong i learn as much as i can. but you have yet to prove me wrong/right/what ever pooint your trying to prove, with anything other then your own words...... so for the sake of others why don't the "expert" show us the right way?..... or better yet why don't you write a hole spu on it and i'll sticky it for you?
you said somthing about paper bing for from real life? well i agree with you there. but how the fuke we ever suppose to know "real world results" if know one ever tries it in the real word?
you said that skinny grah show pressure and not flow? umm i have never heard this from anyone i asked nor is it in the books i have read, for i all i know your blowing smoke to make me look bad or your self better witch is kinda high-school-ish (not saying you are just knida seems that way to me.)
I only try to give poeple solid advice that i have experanced first hand you can ask anyone that i'ms me if i'm not 100% sure i'll tell them who to ask or fond a answer for them for a souce i know is good.
I'm the first to admit i don't know everything and i never try to come off this way.
so please school me and i'll get my pen and paper and you should get yours out too, to learn fomr our "real word" set up's
the hole point of this site is to learn from each other. NOT this......
I only ask if your going to cut/dishonor for lack of better words you at least provide some proof of it/referacne for one to read them self's.
i mean maybe if you was corky bell but i bet he would give some kind of referance for us to under stand. (like his books) you have to rember you have to drop it down so those new to things can understand.

let me guess it was about the 12 PSI ? ? ? </font>[/QUOTE]Take it easy there tough guy, I was just wondering what CR, converter and cam you were running. I PERSONALLY feel the T70 would be to big for me on the street. But my setup is different than yours and your likes are different than mine. I also have not driven either of the cars so maybe I wouldnt mind a T70.
But you can see from the link that Red posted the 61 will do fine on our cars.
I knew this was going to happen... :(
Ok this will be my last reply to you...I apologize if I came too strong...seriously...this is a BB...we will all have a difference in opinion...it is called life!
Also you need to learn how to listen when you don't understand. Again if you feel I came across wrong then we should never meet in real life...because I see you will get upset quickly [img]graemlins/love.gif[/img] and I am not been sarcastic either...
I have accepted you used the T70 because that is what you calculated...fine!!
You can run whatever turbo you want in all honesty...and to reflect I guess it is really not my place to tell you otherwise...However the norm is to start *small (of course not literally) and grow with the unit anywayz...
There is a belief that if a person does not have a car that runs 9's he cannot have validity!! I have been doing this for the better part of 8yrs on this engines...I have seen several combinations...no I haven't seen all...but for the most part 95% of what I spout is experience and NOT opinion...again I will leave this for another time...trust me...it will come back again
Grow a thicker skin by that time though ;)
THE ORIGINAL 3800SII turbo...<b><i>NOW SERIES-III</i></b>
