Basically the only flaw with the hybrid other than the 10% rule is just the BEP turbine hsing according to what you're saying?

Sweet97 claims he was still running high 11's with the BEP hsing on his hybrid,so based on your conclusion are we saying that his car would have run better with a bigger Turbine hsing? If so then this turbo was not so bad after all as you previousy claimed. Just was not putting out the 65+lbs as was quoted with this turbine hsing.
The 7 blade is the super40. The holset-confirmed super40 map is the highest flowing hx40 map. So yes, the 7 blade flows more. Unless you find a larger map. 60mm is 2 mm larger than the h1e/hx40 8 blade compressor. Not THAT much larger. The 8 blade appears to flow 57 lbs/min. In the previous pages, I have posted a super40 map published by holset. There is 10-15 lbs/min difference between the super40 and the h1e map! The super 40 flows 67-68 lbs/min. I have no direct comparison of the 7 blade super40 and the 6 blade. Nor do I have measurements of the super40 inducer/exducer.

Oh yes, I think if he were running a bigger turbine wheel or bigger turbine housing he would have gotten more out of that compressor. It's a 58mm compressor wheel. It has the same inducer and exducer diameter as a gt3782 with MWE and more blades (higher efficiency). It should perform similarly. Given the proper turbine. Like I said, the small hx40 map really dupped me. I should have known better . We should give the 8 blade a shot at least, right? I covered my a$$ .

Here's more speculation . . . Interestingly, the second highest flowing map we have flows *around* 60-61 lbs/min. Could this be the 60mm map? 2 mm difference inducer could dfinately yield that kind of difference in flow. Which is significant! up to 5 lbs/min difference is substancial. And is definately an upgrade to the 8 blade.
