T3/T04E More specific .63A/R turbine housing with a stage 3 wheel

now lets look at some comprssor maps

**all the black lines that I added are @9psi on a KA24DE**

here is the rare 54trimgood for lower boost levels not so good for 400hp

The popular 57 trimit will do well at both low and high boost



50 trimbetter for higher boost then low

The internal wastegate is an option that costs 80 bucks, then you are going to remove it. That’s a waste of money.

If you get the 5 bolt one with the extra hole on the side you will need one of these to cover it up:

it doesn't matter if its a 5 or 4 bolt turbine...

Why did you decide on the 60trim?

Before you buy anything read some info on the site, read the top posts on the KA-T look at people's setups, when you find a setup you like, look at what they have.

wait until you are familiar with everything you are getting and what you are trying to achieve.

example: Understand difference is steps like manual or electronic boost controlled, different size injectors and different ways to control those injectors, different manifolds, things like that

Ahh now I see why.

Call turbocalculator.com at 877-788-8726, and ask if they can send you that turbo with a 5 bolt turbine without a wastegate hole. I don’t see a reason why they can’t.
