turbo sizeing

[utdoo]

hi, i was thinking of trying to build my own turbo for my m8 and m1000 and i see people are running gt 2860 and 2871 but when i looked at garrets web site there are so many options of those tubos. so i was wondering what ar's on compressor and turbin i would need. and what size induce and exduser on the compressor and trim and wheel diameter and trim on the compressor. any input would be helpfull so i dont waist my money on a turbo that wont perform well

just get one from one of the vendors on here that uses em for sleds, then you know your in the ballpark. silber has some good deals on them.. and is a pretty sharp guy for getting you sized up for what you wanna do.

Trust me. 2871 for the M8 and 3071 for the 1k. Proven many times over

3071? for m1k? that is a big turbo.

how about 2860 for m8 and 2871 for m1k? both pg with 6psi at sea level.

3071 for a m1000. The m1000 bore is 5mm larger and 8mm longer stroke, the reason for the big turbo is the small ones create to much intake air temp and can cause melt downs.
