Default Can I have a 60-1 convertered to a T76 compressor?
How difficult is this? Would this be as effective as a T76? Or would the exhaust be too restrictive?

I believe a TE60 is a small shaft turbo and the T76 is a big shaft turbo. Different center sections... plus inlet of compressor housing probably doesn't have enuf meat to machine away.

We can go up to a 67 with the small shafts no problem.
