          T04 .58 a/r O-Trim Turbine

          It could easily use a .69 housing and still be fine for spool up. The 3" free flow exhaust is the key!

              P-Trim is more aggressive and harder to spin but offers better flow at the top end. What compressor wheel?

                            What RRFPR (fmu) ratio are you using with those injectors? Something like 6:1?

                            What fuel pump are you using?

                            I bought a 255lph high pressure Warlboro pump, but by my calculations that is only good for 10psi with my 24lb injectors, and a FMU rate of 6:1.

                            Any higher than that and the fuel pressure needed is too high causing the pump to not flow enough.

                            Are you using any engine/fuel management?

                              We are using a BEGI. The rate of rise is adj.

                              What fuel pump are you using?
                              Stock but I have a 255lph in tank Hi Pressure Walbro to install.

                              Check your calculations.

                              Are you using any engine/fuel management?
                              Nope, stock engine management with 535i AFM and MSD6BTM.
