inducer is 37mm so very close to the vw k24 37.5mm, so very similar flow potential as far as max power. the exducer is smaller tho, which generally means its not as efficient for higher boost, but 55mm is still a good size and not that much smaller, depending on the design of the fins it could actually be better than the k24. k24 has a much larger turbine but depending on the design and the turbine housing a/r what u have could be faster spooling and better flowing. over all, i would say its a similar turbo, not much of an upgrade if it even is one.
ok,thanks...
plans are to build a 1.6/1.9 and would like to have good power numbers but seems that with this turbo this is not going to happen right?
what would be a good turbo for at least 150hp?
i am in europe(different cars/turbos available) but from what cars can i look for the turbo?
that turbo should get you close to 150hp. you want a non vnt turbo?
i currently have a 2052 on my passat 1.9td but i would like to keep it oldschool on this one amd also its not a daily driver so lag isnt that important.
