what is the most HP ever made on a .48 AR hot side turbo???

and also what motor was it on????


what were the specs of the turbo as far as compressor, trim, ARs?

 

What are you trying to settle here? turbo cfm is from the compressor side not the exhaust side. I made 280whp 210wtq @ 8lbs on a custom manifold stock gsr and 3" w/internal dumped wg. xspower .48 hotside and center cartridge with garrett .50 compressor housing. I hit full boost @ 3400rpm and launch @10lbs @ 2800rpm at the track with antilag

 

if you have a big hot side A/R it will take a while to spool or even never spool if it is big enough, to small will spool quick but limit top end HP... .48 is small so he wants to know how much can be made with that small of a hot side (but keeping the .48 to get quick spool)

exactly what im asking!

are there any 450+, 500+ hp hondas out there running a .48 AR on the exhaust side.

i understand the spool ratios from exhaust to compressor sizes, i am just wondering because i always see these massive ARs like .82,.81.86. when mine is a .63 and i hate the lag.

i had a GT28/T4S on my turbo saturn project and it spooled great and was supopsed to make over 450, but i was wondering will the .48 LET IT MAKE THE POWER???

thats all

 

350 is about what what you could expect to be the top for a .48 hot side... At least thats what ive been told buy a couple people

 

I could see it making 350 hp.....depending on what compressor you choose.

a 60/48 can make 300 without too much stress.

 

thanks for the responses guys

 

I'd like to know as well... I have a .48/.60 and would like to know its limits...

I would bet that depending on the compressor trim you would be out of the turbos efficiency range with anything over 350 or so... that's just a guess though. I'd like to see some real life numbers!

 

You need to specify what size turbine you are running. If you have a 3" turbine wheel and a .48 turbine housing you'll be able to make more power than with a 1.5" turbine on a .48 housing.

Well its definately more than that. Howard at ARFab made 400whp on a D16 with SC50 .48 A/R.

 

i've seen 420 something hp on a .48

^^^^^^^^^
he knows his sohc turbo ****!


see this is the debate i have been going thru for a while now, i am stuck between a few different turbos and have been unhappy with a few so far.

it obviously wouldnt be some bitch compressor like a .42 AR it would probably be more like a .70 AR with an "E" cover, and something along the lines of a 60-62 trim?

i just dont want to choke out the exhaust housing once large amounts of boost start coming in

 

I've seen 331whp/243 tq on mustang dyno @ 19psi with a 60/48 on a built b18c 9:1/83mm/ type r head

I made 280whp @ 8lbs on a stock block and a 50 a/r and know it could make about 350whp @ 13 lbs!

 

anyone have any of thier sheets?? i know you do ryancivic200 but i cant find yours again.

im trying to make in the 400-range and i dont want to rev to 10 grand to do it, just looking at alternatives to other turbos and such

That's a very broad question, the turbine housing and turbine wheel combination is what will get the compressor moving and also get rid of backpressure, now, it's obvious that a .48/1 hotside combo will not get rid as much backpressure as a .48/5. BillyT with a vw 1.8T put down 461 whp with an ITS T3/T4E 50 trim with a .48/5 hotside, one of our cars put down 348whp with a T3/T4E 57 trim with a .48/O trim wheel. It comes down to getting rid of backpressure and certain combinations will just work better than others, for instance, a .63/3 may not get rid of backpressure as well as a .48/5.
Keep that in mind as less backpressure will equal a higher volumetric efficiency.
hope this helps

i have a t3/t4e 60. 48

i just want it to do 300-350 whp on pump

thank you very much for your insight, im sorta leaning towards a stage 5 .48 housing, seems like it will flow well enough for my set up, im not looking to run SFWD or anything. but i am trying to get the best USE-ABLE power from my B16.


thanks
