Yeah, if it was making 600rwhp on motor through a glide and the turbo was 100% efficient. In other words, no way.

Could you please elaborate a little on the relative merits of different wheel designs? Like more blades is more efficient at lower pressure ratios (or higher PRs) or whatever the basic situation may be?

I'm probably not the only one who is curious about this, and it's an opportunity for you to impress us with your ability to do custom stuff kind of like a couple of the vendors on the forum have probably sold a lot of cams because they really write up some informative posts.

Not yet.

Compressor wheels are easy to do. Big chunk of aluminum and a cnc machine...relatively cheap.

Turbine wheels are a little different. More expensive material...harder to machine...

But theres a new turbine coming thatll work even better with the high flowing wheels that exist now.
