#70858, "star trim"




          

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...

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

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?

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....
