Turbo sizing... - Click HERE for Original Thread

Mekanik22
Hey guys. I'm just wondering how turbo sizing works. I hear this "T6" and all those, what do they mean? How does the PSI work? What's the max PSI you can get in a turbo? What's the PSI in an average turbo?

Read the book Maximum Boost by Corky Bell. Required reading for anybody even remotely interested in turbochargers. Excellent read. :bigthumbup:

We can whip you up a clone of the ZAPP turbo we run on the Sivik. :bigthumbup:
