that looks like a straight 60 trim to me, T3. thats ok though, its big enough to perform well on an A20... to like 275whp. You got a good deal on that turbo too. I run the same thing but with a .63 turbine housing, not toooo laggy down low but BIG top end

lol i guess i will have BIIIIIIG topend then! rofl
HUUUUUUUGEEEEE lol. But if you wanna go REALLY fAsT, you need nawwzzzz, 2 big bottles. And an ugly neon green paint job is not a bad way to spend $10,000

keep in mind that people use turbos this size and larger on d16 setups, and they work quite well. with a 2.0L A20 pushing it, it will likely run out of steam sooner than it would on a smaller displacement motor like the d series, or even b16 b18...
i think that turbo is just fine, or on the small side.like accordepicenter said in another thread, none of this GT28 / T3 stuff... get a BIG turbo!
its probably a good thing to have the turbo reach full boost a little higher in the rpm range. it will keep better mileage and drivability.
sorry to thread jack. I think A sticky should be made and put into the FAQ section of nothing but turbo info like part numbers and links of where to get everything. I know this is gonna be somewhat hard to do being each turbo build is gonna be a lil diffrent but all in all eveyone wants to know the same info. you can alredy find all the info if you just search I know but turbo builds are ever becoming more popular. well alright good luck on your A20 turbo build man. god I just called a place for a price on a equal length race turbo mani and they were like $1200 does equal length really make that big of a diffrence?
my car is stock it just likes sittn lower to the ground than most cars:
Lowes 3" CAI W/filter, hackd off mufflar, MSD Blaster 2 coil and bosch Platinum spark plugs&wires...she roars all the way to 6K
just FYI... i am building a website that will accomodate turbo specific builds, and i plan to house a lot of info like part numbers, prices etc... and hopefully some useful how to's.... the domain has been bought, and a forum has been tenatively constructed.... but there is absoluetly no content on the site at this moment.
i will post a link when there is actually something worth checking out. but know that i am building the site, and it will be an excellent resource for turbo specific a20 projects.
A website devoted to turbos would be able to answer anyone's questions about what ever turbo sizes to use what kind of motor set up ect.
next weekend is when I'm going to get my head back from the shop. he's doing a full port and polish 5 angle valve job putting in dual springs and titanium retainers new valve guide seals. and I dont have to pay for it. I lay flooring for a living. So i'm going to lay down some laminate for him as trade work. here is his web site www.dh-racing.com . I'll post some pics when I get it and tell you guys how he did.
sorry I mispelled flooring
