Reply #8 – January 28, 2008, 09:38:17 AM 70 TRIM ?Are you sure you don't mean .70 A/R?A 70 trim would be gigantic and it would never spool.You especially do not want to be putting big compressor wheels onto an otherwise stock T3. Big compressor + stock turbine wheel = horrible lag and no power.I don't know off the top of my head what TRIM the stock T3 is, but it's relatively small. .60 compressor, "stage I" turbine.

Getting a larger compressor with the same turbine means it will take forever to make any boost. Like pumping up water wings vs. a raft with your lungs. You'll get into some boost but not very fast.

Reply #11 – January 29, 2008, 02:29:33 PM Well, whatever it is, I wouldn't bother with it.When you swap wheels, you have to have it rebalanced, which costs around $100 + shipping, and with something like that the performance return would be questionable.
