Um, he was asking the trim, not flow-rate. To find the trim of a wheel:

Trim = (inducer^2 / exducer^2) * 100

So, for a 60-1 turbo:

(2.324^2 / 3.000^2) * 100 = 60.0108

A 60-trim wheel.

John, I know that you have excellent packages and I would like to ****** one down the line. Although I just purchased a Home and the wife wanted a new kitchen so you married guys can figure the rest.

Bacon fries up just fine on a hot turbo.

I can see the answer she would give me if I told her that(Put your s****** there).
So she had to drag me to get whatever she wanted in SS. Man sometimes I wish I was single.

If you call up X Y Z turbo shop, and tell them you want a 60 trim, you are going to get at 53# compressor, not a 60-1 (61#).

I have a Turbonetics T3/T4. The previous owner had it installed on the car. I have had it for 2 years and I have not looked back. It has been very reliable and I have more than sufficient boost for the track. Mine is set up for mid range.

Then that is a communication problem. But the 60-1 turbo is still a 60trim. There are many 60trim turbos out there, which is why specificity is important.
