Default S95 turbo vs GT55-91mm

Is the S95 larger as in how fitting in into a space?

And what "mm" are they as opposed to the GT55's 91 "mm"?

Curious because I can't find any info on the S95.

The S95 is a 95mm compressor wheel, as far as I know.

I'm still looking for the physical deminsions of the S95 myself.

I spoke to Jose about this, and he said the S95 is a little larger then the GT47-88 in outer size.The GT55 is a 91mm from the factory.The garretts are nice turbos, but they aren't reliable for what we use them for (high boost diesels).

I know this post is a little old, but folks have been wondering about the S95 vs GT55.

Well we tried a single S95 on a Outlaw 10.5/ 3200+ lbs car running low boost @ 23psi.

Car turned a 4.71 in the 1/8th...and this was shakedown times..... Now another one will be mounted for twin S95's

You have been researching a turbo setup for a long time now. I thought I was bad. Have you lowered the compression yet on your motor or are you planning an entirely new motor? You do have a bunch of options....

The S95 is on a thumper chassis, and not a midframe like the S88 and possibily the S91 if it makes it into production.
