What is the difference in spool between these turbo compressors ? I have a CT43 67/79 0.81AR, and i want to upgrade the compressor only (as the turbine is big enough), what do you think it will be the differnce in spool ? right now it has 1.8@5200 (on dyno) ?
67mm vs 72mm vs 74mm turbo spool

I dont have any personal experience but since turbo lag is mainly dependent from shaft/turbine dimensions and turbine housing AR I think that 100-200 RPM for each step would be a safe estimate. That if you don't have compressor surge.Go Holset or Go RS4 -
In fact is not laggy at all, i used this setup only for dragracing, but i think that that the increase in compressor size will generate much more lag, i dont thing that 76mm compresor (gtx42xx) will have over 1bar @ 5500 rpm, that why i asked, some one with different turbo inducer on same setup will know better ?Comment

If you not changing the turbine wheel then your talking maybe 200 rpm for the 72mm and 400 for the 74mm. It's probably less for the compturbo
Example http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthr...t=43787&page=7
I mean that was a major change in turbine wheel and compressor and the spool difference is a lot less than you would expectComment

If so, then a 74mm seems to be a quite good choice, seems that the compturbos are better spooling that garrette lines. Also it has some strange turbine ration, for example 79mm is 100 trim, or how do you say it 79mm inducer / 79 exducer turbine wheel.Comment

Now, real life info, same car, same fuel. (The smaller turbo with leaks on intake manifold) . Checked the intercooler pressure lose (quite small 0.1 bar or close ).
1. Turbo CT43 - 67 mm inducer 79/79 turbine - 0.81 AR
2. Turbo CT43 - 78 inducer (105 exducer) 79/79 turbine - 0.96 AR
See the graph below - same dynoAttached FilesComment
