What trim, and a/r does the basic star turbo come in? I was again debating a custom kit and wanted a turbo as similar to that but couldnt find via search what it was...Im still learning to read compressor maps so yeah...

hm ok

the basic turbo from the star kit is a t3/t04B with a 46trim compressor wheel and a .48 A/R turbine.

thnx pts to you

thank you sir...and as far as your debate on the turbo...the basic star turbo is a decent turbo, roughly the size of a s20g from HRC...but in itself lacks and real go juice...i recommend getting the next level or even going 2 levels up....

1 level up = t3/t04E 50trim comp. with .63 turbine(stage 2)

2 levels = t3/t04E 57trim with a .63(stage 1) turbine

now i have had all 3 from the basic star to 1 level up to 2 levels up and a hybrid version of level 2...the basic level 2 i got was the 57trim with a stage 1 .48 turbine..i matted the stage 2 turbine from my 50trim, the wheel on the stage 2 .63 is bigger than the stage 1 turbine wheel...and makes the 57trim into a mean as mofo...

when you say (stage 2) that indicates that that turbo comes with the star stage 2 kit?

Like that?

no..when i say stage 2 in this instance i am reffering to the turbine wheel....stage 1, 2 and 3....each wheel is a bit larger than the latter and is more aggressive...will take a little longer to get spooled, but the power gains are worth it.


and yes that turbo on ebay is exactly what i'm talking about...will blow the doors off a t3/t4b 46trim....
