Claims the compressor is a .42, but it definately looks like a .60 to me.



It's a pretty good deal because the guy thinks it's a .42 and that's what it's listed as, if it's a .60, i have a Super 60 compressor for it. Auction ends soon and i despirately need a turbo ASAP.

Says it's from a Volvo 760 2.3l

I know what Google is, and i've searched it.

 

VOLVO 760 (Oil Cooled) 83-86 2.3L GAR TB0326
VOLVO 760 (Watercooled) 85-87 2.3L GAR TB0363

the TB0326 is 'oil cooled' while the TB0363 is water and oil cooled

This turbo has an intake A/R of .42 and an exhaust A/R of .48

all found through http://www.google.com

get off your lazy *** and search.

 

I believe the trim matters not the .AR if you want to change ar housing. trim is the taper of the wheel from the inducer to exducer. (inducer/exducer=trim) .AR stands for Area to radius ratio.

 

I'm finding out i think the A/R has nothing to do with it, i was thinking the A/R and Trim were the same thing (60 trim, A/R 60...). I searched Google for pictures to compare incase he got his information wrong.

I guess my question is, will my Super 60 compressor fit this turbo?

 

what trim is your housing...waht trim is the turbo in the picture. if they're the same then yeah.

 

I don't know the trim, my compressor is from a Ford Merkur, it's a (Super) 60 trim, bolted to an AiResearch turbo like this and the wheel to housing clearance was the same.

I'm going to go ahead and buy it once the seller replies, it's cheap, it'll force air into my engine and allow me to drive it, if my compressor fits, even better.
