I took some pics of the turbo I just took off of my van. I do not think it is a .57 trim as I was told. It looks like a T3/T4 .46 trim with a .48 A/R housing. Does this look correct? I took a pic of the turbine wheel, but I don't know if you can identify it by looking at it.
Now, the one on the left is the .40 trim I bought from Rich Bryant. It also has the .48 turbine housing and Stage II wheel.
Now that I have this information, what can be said about it not having power when the boost comes in? Once it hits about 10 psi it feels like it lays over; like it is making noise but not any power.
Cam timing is correct, I checked it with a timing light and I have cranking compression in the 150's to 160's.
The ignition timing was set to 12* with the plug pulled on the coolant temp. sensor.
I am getting boost relatively early, but even with the boost at 15 psi, the thing is feeling slow. With the Mitsu turbo, the thing would really pull at 15 psi.
I am running a cal from ShelGame with +40% injectors and an afpr set to 55 psi (static).
What am I missing? I am running out of ideas!
