Default Which Turbo is bigger?

Is the 60-1 turbo bigger than the t3/t4e exhaust .63 stage 3 with .60 compressor housing. Im a little confused about the difference in sizing between them. TIA

I'm pretty sure the 60-1 is way bigger than that, but let's wait for the experts to step in here...

thx, i was wondering about that, it's just the compressor side right, the exhaust sides are the same on both right? is there a bigger trim for the t3/t4e to make it as big as a 60-1 satying with the .63 exhaust trim?

not neccesarily...turbonetics uses a .60 a/r comressor housing for their hifi 60-1....but the standard 60-1 turbos use a .70 a/r housing with a 4' inlet and 2.5" outlet....


EDIT: That's the exact same turbo as mine...

I have a .63 a/r turbine housing, stage 3 wheel, 60-1 compressor wheel, .70 a/r comrepssor housing...

I can get you one for 600 bucks shipped brand new

Aren't there fitment issues with using the 60-1 with like a drag manifold? Did you have to cut a lot away of the block to get it to fit? It would be for a b16a.

Doesn't Turbonetics make a 60-1 HiFi as they call it which is basically a 60-1 that bolts to a T3 flange?

There will most definately be fitment issues with the drag manifold and 60-1 combo...just needs a little more grinding !

Jared: Turbonetics calls that the 60-1 hifi.....it does not have a 4" inlet and 2.5" outlet like the larger housings...pretty nice too....I can also get you this turbo too

60-1 had a 4" inlet while 60-1 hifi is about 2 1/2 and flows at least 10% less
