jinx Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 plain ol 60-1 has performed excellent on a few g54s. How much better can it be ?Have u actually seen the new billet 60-1 wheel "blow it away" ...based on performance numbersMy neighbour 2jz lost considerable performance with a billet comp wheel in his 366. Maybe some bogus stuff out there Mikes turbo inc. in miami, popular with locals.M.I.C. hmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionbull Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) https://www.facebook.com/micturbo If the blade geometry is the same then there should be no difference.Do you have ALL the details on your neighbors set up?.Billet gtx style wheels have better aerodynamics in the design of the wheel.The answer to your question is the gtx 60-1 wheel is better than it's old cast counterpart.Plenty of bogus stuff out there.

jinx Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 The answer to your question is the gtx 60-1 wheel is better than it's old cast counterpartno, the question wasHave u actually seen the new billet 60-1 wheel "blow it away" ...based on performance numbersi'm sure its "better", on paper, but..... "blow it away"? Doubt it mang. Especially on our old 2.6 'mules'.U never get 2 c such exaggerated claims (easily measured at the tires) is what I'm gettin at. I'd love to tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHARDmitsu. Posted September 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 (edited) very nice. That 60-1, is it the new billet gtx style one or the old school one? Journal bearing 60-1 is what I have. Non billet Edited September 23, 2014 by DieHARDmitsu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TainterRacing Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) I would go bigger then a 60-1..... Your setup is all most the same as my brothers car is now....... other then you have a tranny that works lol Edited October 1, 2014 by TainterRacing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHARDmitsu. Posted October 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 I've played around with a couple of other turbos on this build. Largest was a t67 (T4) smallest was a 57mm T4. Lag on the 67 caused the low end response to suffer but in boost it felt like a fraight train.I'M sure a bigger turbo would net more power but the 60-1 feels good all round.

Funky Phil Posted October 2, 2014 Report Share Posted October 2, 2014 There are a lot of turbos that make more power. But is it the power you want and where you want it? If your happy, stay happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieHARDmitsu. Posted October 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Its good as is for now... a better tranny is at the top of my list, waiting on Bill. Those billet/BB turbos are surely tempting though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
