Why'd you buy a turbo when you didn't know what it was?

My T3/T04E is a .60 A/R. It would take you days to spool that large of a turbo.
Here's a little more info for you: http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbob...urbospeak.html
Also on this site, even the Chevy V8 turbo kit they provide is only a 1.0 A/R.

Its a large industrial oem T04b turbo. Probably came off a desiel truck or genset or something. Not a great turbo for our applications. Even to use the T4 compressor side to make a t3/t4. T04b has terrible efficiency or our engines.
