Default Is This TURBO To Big ?

I have a Garret turbo- .60 AR is on the compressor side and . 82 on the turbine side. Its a good turbo no end play on shaft ...I got it for free ...and want to slap it on my LS engine . Is the LS engine too little of a displacement ? Or should i try putting it on something higher ( Plelude, Crv). .........

What trim is the compressor? If it's a (60 trim)t4/t3(.82 A/R) then thats a rather large turbo to be putting on stock LS engine. It'll make a good amount of power for you if you're built and can rev higher. But you prolly won't get spool till the 5000RPM range. You could use is on something larger like a 2L LS/GS-R or an H22 and it would spool a bit earlier....

Kinda large, hope it's not for stock/street use. I'll trade ya my 54trim -.63 A/R for it

I'd say its too big for a LS.
How much psi are you looking to push?

Would the t3/60-1 .63 spool faster than a t3/t04e .82? Which would produce more power on the exact same setup? Would the power bands be the same?

The inlet on the turbine is a triangle three bolt flange . Since i havent seen any 3 bolt flanges , i was wondering if it would be hard to find a manifold?
