Thanks, Brother. I often see Garrett and Precision turbine wheels referred to by their stage. I didn't know it was exclusive to Chinachargers at SL. AFAIK the stage of a turbine wheel tells a lot more about it than the trim of a compressor wheel yet I see lots of noobs here who seem to think that a 50 trim T04B comp. is the same as a 50 trim T04E comp.

Do not freak out if something isn't running right. It's probably the easiest fix in the work.

Do not buy a TRD supercharger no matter how cheap you can get it.
Sorry if duplicated.

What, me worry? I had my 3" CXR exhaust installed today and then went for my state emissions test. This ish is LOUD, no cats, turbocharged and the kid just plugged into the OBD port and passed it without batting an eye! Gotta love diligent government employees.

Best rule ever: Don't buy something then ask if it is good or not.
Second best rule: If you do the first best rule, then delete your SL account.

I might be wrong but AFAIK T31 turbine sizing goes something like this:

Stage 1 = 49mm, 68 trim
Stage 2 = 54mm, 72 trim
Stage 3 = 57mm, 76 trim

BTW, I forgot to mention that T31 wheels all share the same 65mm inducer dia.

I've been on the www since the first 14.4K modems hit store shelves.

Oh sorry... a 14.4K modem was a PC peripheral from before your time that allowed sending and receiving digital data over phone lines at data rates of up to 14.4Kbps.

BTW, unless you're 15, I ain't 3x your age, son...

My profile age is wrong. I gave a fake birthdate and can't seem to figure out how to change it. I just turned 47 last month.

Let's just say that I'm old enough to be your daddy and leave it there.
