I see 33 - 34 MAF lb/min in my logs at 24 - 22 psi and I'm sure I'm slower than you.

You have to check it when the fuel trims are zero for it to be accurate.

Noone has ever gotten a single scroll back. There is but one turbine that fits this car, it has a bolt pattern all it's own. hell the Turbo itself is is actually called a KD04 and fits on nothing but the LNF. The factory wheels are the 3rd largest trim that fits. (guess what wheel is the first )

I'd ask BTF. I don't think I've ever been made aware of that information. If anybody would know, it'd probably be him.

Trim is irrelevant, but if you need to know the compressor is 51 trim and the turbine is 81 trim.

Its a formula based on the inner/outer dimensions of the wheel, you can have two different sized wheels with the same trim, so it doesn't really tell you much as far as size goes.

If your out of the efficiency range like 36 lbm/min, how much more stress is put on the compressor than if you were in the efficiency range and what boost would 36lbm/min relate to?

Not having the clearly correct one doesn't mean we should get first one which we find and state this is the one.


Terminator check tuned Audi S3 8P, that is more potent turbo than ours and is still a K04.
Good God, is that English?
