I just bought a turbo with these specs. Got a great deal tell me what you guys think.

Real Original Garrett TO4B 60-1 hybrid turbo with a .70 a/r compressor housing (which can be polished if desired). This turbo is perfect for 4 and 6 cylinder engines looking to pump 300 hp to 500 hp fast (depending on your particular application).

Compressor Housing - Polished .70 A/R, 2.50" inlet and a 2.00" discharge
Cartridge - Standard Journal Bearings System. Oil cooled. 360 degrees thrust bearing
Compressor Wheel - 60mm (2.36'') inducer, 70mm exducer (2.75'')

Exhaust Wheel - Stage 3

Exhaust Housing - Turbonetics T3 A/R .82 On Center, 5 bolt pattern exhaust housing. Fast spooling turbo for high flow engines!

 

Sounds like a 60-1 HiFi which is smaller than the one i have. They are good for tight spots since they are smaller.

 

\

I was expecting it to be a bit larger. with a .70 cold side a/r and .81 hot side

 

if it is a true 60-1( there are tons that arent) it will have a better top end than mine.

 

It sounds like a good turbo, but what's a 60-1 hifi??? What's the difference between the Garrett T3 60-1 I have (.70a/r cold and .63a/r hot)???

 

The hifi is a more compact version.

 

Ghase hows your upstairs? turbo wise not having anything to do with your IM. I dont have an 00vi but ill buy a mevi if i have to.

 

Topend power is decent, but midrange torque is my cars mojoe..lol And it all starts at 2700rpm and by 3400rpm I have full boost (7-8psi).

She runs good but it will get better when I start doing my own tuning on the Greddy EU.
