    More info wanted on Garrett T04E-50

    Hey.

    Id like som info on the Garrett T04E-50. All i can find is compressor maps and well i suck att calculating stuff on thoose. So what is the general opinion on these turbos on a S2 machine. The car that is interested in this turbo has a built bottom end so tourqe isnt a problem. Its only gona be stressed to 380-400 hp though so is this the right turbo for them?

    Here are some pics on the turbo in question.

    If you can stretch your budget i'd go for a garrett gt2871R or gt3071R with K26 hotside with a .63 AR

      I measurements what is the narrowest point in the entry. Though your measurement seems to be ~60mm territory.

      Could you measure the exit also (the turbine blades exit in the housing) in mm ?

      The turbine wheel seems to have very hevy axle (big fat turbine axle nut)

      If you select that the entry should be more than 55mm+ then the Garret ball bearing series turbos are better choice when the overall rotating masses are relatively big.
