Default Roto-master To4b

I have a rotomaster TO4B with a R-11 comp wheel and a P-trim ex wheel .96 ex houseing. Can I use this on my LS1? Or would I be better off using something else? This is a daliy driver stock bottem end bolt-on car. ANY help would be appreciated.

Measure the compressor wheel's inducer first. That is the best thing to do to see if its worth using. A T04B is typically a pretty small unit, and not worth using on a larger V8.

Not quit sure what the inducer is. But small part of the wheel is 2.312 and the larger part of the wheel is 3.003. The inlet I.D. is 2.745. So what does all this mean?

Basically its a 58mm turbo. Probably good for 500-550hp crank. Fine for a stock unit, but not much else.

550hp crank=about 450 rear wheel right? Thats not to bad. Fine for a stock unit? Do you mean a Stock motor? Not much else. What do I need?

Yeah for a stock motor that is fine. If your are wanting more, then I would look for something a little larger. All depends on the level of power you are looking for.

The T67 is a good bit larger and will handle around 800-825hp depending on housing, and turbine wheel trim.

OK I have found a different one. Air Research. Inducer is, small part 1.295. Larger part 2.750. A/R ex .96. Is this smaller than the other one? what is it good for?

How does it size up to a 60-1? The reason I ask is I was thinking that I could buy a STS kit minus turbo or make something up. let me knoe what you think.

Going by your measurements that is a 32mm unit. That won't blow enough air to cool the sweat off my sack... ...hehe. That is no where near the size of a GT67 and a good bit smaller then even a 60-1. If your looking to run something close to a 60mm, then a 60-1 is ok, also the master power 60 series is ok. But for best results the 67 or something in that size range will work best for that size motor.

That was funny Ok I have two more.TO4B's .58 A/R ex. small 1.900,large 2.750. Would these work for a twin set up. And if not what can I sell these for? They are brand new. And how much would it cost to buy the right one.

Yeah, those units are equivalent to a pair of 48-49mm units. They are almost the same size as a GT3552. They would work pretty decent with a tiwn setup. Should be good for almost 800-900hp depending on the covers and exhaust side and potentially more.

OK Now I have something to work with. Does any one make a twin kit? and will they fit.
