i finally got my rev hard 2c kit after so many weeks of waiting. First thing is the turbo is a turbonetics, is this normal? Its polished compressor housing. How can i tell if its a t3/t04e and not a t3/t04b? On the turbine it says, .63 a/r and stg 3. i thought 2c comes with a nutec or precision turbo... anyways. the piping from the turbo to the intercooler is only 2 inches in diameter. Is this normal? Then the piping from the intercooler to charge pipe is 2.25 and the charge pipe is 2.5. Help me, thanks.

You will be fine with that pipng. You don't need bigger unless your running tons of boost. With bigger piping and not enough boost you may lose a little. SOunds normal to me.

 

http://www.turboneticsinc.com/catalog/comp_wheels.html - you can measure to tell if the size of compressor

http://www.turboneticsinc.com/catalog/twheel.html - if it already states .63 a/r then it most likely is.

 

the e compressor housing should be alot bigger then the b housing.

 

With my rev hard kit I got a .63 a/r stage 3 wheel turbine, and the t04e compressor, which is amazingly stamped with only 50 .AR It's still huge tho.

 

The turbine says .63 a/r and stage III. The compressor side says nothing but Turbonetics and the backing plate is this annodized blue. The inlet is only 2.5.

 

My guess is you have the t3/t4b turbo because 2 friends have it, its a bit smaller then mine and the compressor is polished, whereas all the t3/t4e's I saw were considerably bigger on the compressor side and did NOT come polished.

Oh and my compressor inlet is 3"

mr.cheap turbo said the t04e has a six blade wheel on the compressor side and seven blade for the t04b. I have the six blade and he said the inlet was 2.5 becuase it was .50 on the compressor side. what u guys think?

 

john from afterhourz also said 2 inch from turbo to intercooler is to prevent pressure drop. then out the intercooler its 2.25 and then 2.5 to tb. what u guys think bout this too?
