thats a weird grind but it seems to work well

my grind is almost like the stage 4 grind :naughty:

i still say go with the .68 housing

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

.68 housing it, caught it before it went out.... I swear this thing better spool even when the car is off, lol.

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

i hear ya; I hope the T62-1 I ordered (advertised as having a .96...I asked for a .68) doesn't just act like some immovable clog in the exhaust line

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

... it will spool...that is not the issue, the issue here is at what RPM?
Is this a manual or automatic?

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

don't know what he has, I have an M5 '94 3.4

what I'm wondering is what I would need to do to my engine to get it to around 300hp.

the engine: currently 120,680 miles (overhauled at 99K) no leaks, though I need to change the o2 sensors (I have them, and will change them shortly). pretty clean engine, aside from the dust

yet I realize I should probably get a compression test done, and have the tranny inspected, before I set any serious goals, and put the plan in motion; I may just get another car to put it on.

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

mine is A4, and wiht all my mods will spool just fine I am sure. As far as 300 hp, you are looking at bigger injectors, cam, and really that and 10-15 psi will already put you over the 300 mark. the guy I bought my turbo kit from was runninga t3/t4 at 15 psi on a completely stock motor BUT had race gas. He put down 359 rwhp. So pump gas, injectors, a cam or rockers and some boost will put you over.

Well "spool" has no standard...can you define what you mean by "will spool fine"?
If you are using an A4 then amongst the mods mentioned you never stated stall? (forgive me if you did)...at any rate, with the size of the housing, the heads and cam package and the comp. wheel; you will definately need a stall converter looser than ~35XXRPM...

yup i learned that the hard way !!! good thing i have one free stall coming to me !!!

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

by spool I mean the time it takes or rather rpm range to get that turbo making its max PSI as controled by the wastegate and BC. As far as the stall, I havent listed one cause I am still trying to decide on the right one for my application, and it does seem like the 3600 is what it will be.

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

wait, less than 3500? I guess maybe I am not understanding the stall fully then.

Fair enough...
So is this a street car...drag car or attempting to do both duties!?? I ask because you will need a compromise somewhere in between. Did StaT2 get you the turbo also? You should call and find out what the recommended stall should be...I guess more importantly; it will be based on how the first set of questions is/will be answered...

...wait, less than 3500? I guess maybe I am not understanding the stall fully then.

Nothing less...with that combo, a 3500 stall (+) will be what I will be looking into...however I am not a fan of large turbos and loose stall on this application...you don't need my bias... ;)

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

well its gotta be my daily driver, so i am looking street and strip, I have read up on converters but dont understand the "slip" involved, guess I need to dig deeper.

Well as long as you understand the basic principles of a A4 and the converter then you are fine. Or are you talking in terms of stall + turbos!?!?

Re: Turbonetics T-70 Ceramic Ball Bearing

with my 3800 stall i can not spool the turbo at the line i need like a 4200 stall or 4400

this is with the old kit but tha car is broke anyway
