I have an S14 compressor and wheel......and a CA T25 turbo.........if I put the S14 compressor parts with the CA T25 center and hot side......what could I expect for spool and HP output?.....and at what point would the hot side be choked?

thanks,

-M

AFAIK nobody's done that before. That makes for a pretty unbalanced turbo though. It certainly can't hurt to try though!

I don't know what size the s14 stuff is, but if it's to large to run with a ca T25 houseing and Turbine wheel, you'll end up getting compressor surge. whihc will destroy your Turbo pretty quick.

I'm running a BOV so compressor surge shouldnt be an issue.

Throttle plate closing surge and turbo running surge are two different things..

Neither are good though..

Turbo running surge is reduced by using a wastegate....no? If not, then please explain.
