Default Some help with selecting the proper trim

Is there any selection to picking out the proper A/R trim or is it mainly guess work and hope? I mean I'm trying to figure out if there is an equation or something for it. Hope this isn't too vague.

selecting your turbine A/R is just a matter of "trial and error" or you can find sa few people with similar setups and see what their A/R's characteristics are.

yeah, I was thinking that a T3/T4 .60 trim (if that is the A/R trim) is not the best for a 2.4L

Are you trying to find a good compressor size or a good turbine size?

EDIT: also what motor is this for?
