Default My NEW BABY
New turbo on left, old one on right. Anyone care to take a guess on the size of the new one? Drag radial racing and 10.5 racing here i come! For reference its a gt42-76 on the right.

Could someone explain what it means when a turbo is referenced in 2 numbers, like 88/101?

How does that compare to a standard turbo like a 91.5mm for instance?

The 88/98 is good for about 1750, a standard 91 is good for 1550.

Thank you Jose, but I'm not asking for a comparison in HP levels. What I meant to ask was a 88/98 is Volute/inlet = 88mm
Inducer of wheel is = 98mm, right? Does that mean a 91.5 is Volute/inlet =91.5mm Inducer of wheel is = 91.5mm?
