[Benji]

Mitsubishi:
16g = 34lb/min
Big 16g = 36lb/min
20g = 44lb/min

Forced Performance:
Big28 = 36lb/min

AGP:
L1 = 41lb/min (400BHP) T04B comp housing
L1R = 42lb/min (no data available)
L2 = 49lb/min 50 trim (520BHP) choice T04B / T04E
L2R = 54lb/min (550BHP) choice T04B / T04E
L3 = 60lb/min 60-1 (610BHP) T04E comp housing
L3R = 62(65)lb/min (630BHP) T04E comp housing

Extreme Turbo:
ETA12 = 36lb/min S-trim (360WHP) ETA comp housing
ETA32 = 48lb/min 50 trim (440WHP) ETA comp housing
ETE32 = 48lb/min 50 trim (460WHP) T04E comp housing
ETE42 = 50lb/min 60 trim (500WHP) TO4E comp housing
ETE52 = 55lb/min 60-1 (550WHP) TO4E comp housing

GT30 (ball bearing) turbos:

48 trim = 44lbs/min
52 trim = 50lbs/min
56 trim = 55lbs/min
60 trim = 60lbs/min
gt35 trim = 65lbs/min

Garrett:
T-28 = 34lb/min (350BHP)
50 trim = 47lb/min (GREEN)
57 trim = 49lb/min 60-1 = 65lb/min (RED)

The following is from Turbonetics Catalog:

On TO4E Compressor housings:
50-trim = 47lbs/min
54-trim = 45lbs/min
57-trim = 49lbs/min
60-trim = 50lbs/min
T-100 = 180lbs/min

TO4B compressor housing:
60-1 = 65lbs/min
62-1 = 70lbs/min

So can somone tell me what a Lbs would conver into CFMS?

 

[irn__man]

Would love to see a Compressor Map for the FP Big28!

You left out the T25.

 

[DeezNutsForYou]

and the 14b

 

[hoffman]

who upgrades (or downgrades) to stock?

if a s16g is rated at close to 505cfm, and that equals close to 34/lbs a min. and the big28/big16g are 550cfm, 36/lbs a min......i think you can figure out the rest.

CFM = lbs per min / .075

Thats the simple version.

That's very thoruough.

Some vendors offer a TS04 housing with there turbos. A very big housing but still worth including.

 

[DeezNutsForYou]

thats not true. Unless I missunderstood the formula, you just take lbs per minute and devide that by .075 to get the cfm the turbo flows. If you take a big 16g with a flow rate of 36lbs/min, the formula only gives you 480 cfm, when the actual cfm is 550.

please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[doug]

One is mass, the other is volume, so there are variables that come into play. 550 CFM won't ALWAYS be 36 lbs/min, because there are other factors such as temperature, pressure, etc. Read through the link I posted earlier-- some people a lot smarter than me put some good info in there.

I do not suppose you could add some information on the big t-28 killer?
