Going smaller on the high pressure turbo

If I'm reading your post correctly you like it??
Did you get the Spitfire FMW 65/70/14, T3 waste gated housing? Are you running a standard S480 T6, 1.32 A/R, 96mm at the moment? I suppose I could just read your other thread but to same time I'll just ask, haha.
With that said, would you run it as a single?
Reason I ask is I'm going to be taking off my S366 to go another direction. I'm either going to put a standard S475 T6, 1,32 A/R on top of one of my IHI's that has everything done to it or I've been looking at running the FMW 64.5 as a single instead. Then look at putting an S480 on top of that down the road possibly.
Thanks for the help Russ

64.5/70/.91 T4 but I have a .83 housing too, installing it after I change the s480 setup. Not a gated housing, but I am plumbed for a gate off of my pedestal. No gate installed at the moment.

yes, it's the standard s480 with a batmo wheel and race cover. I sent off my brothers s480 and had it machined for a 1.10 housing. This is the next change I'm making and will provide feedback.

I don't see why not. The 64.5 is much more aggressive part throttle and lower rpms than the 66 was. From a standstill, no boost and you dead pedal launch I would say the time to 5psi would be identical but from there the 64.5 sky rockets to peak boost compared to the 66 I had. It's just different, and I like it. Very happy with the change

Don't worry, if I want real answers I'll ask Josh!!!! haha :hug:
Every little bit helps.:thumb: My S366 isn't working for my application so at this point I'm torn between the FMW 64.5 T3 waste grated or an S475 with billet wheel on top of one of my IHI's with a billet wheel. Decisions, decisions!!
