On another note, what should we name this turbo?

Logically think W1R but I want to change it up and name it something meaningful and impactful.

Maybe play on the FK8 theme? Something like KT1 or RT1? Or if you have a specific turbo diameter you could go wit that, i.e. 30mm could be a RT-30.

Nerd question for you... Using SolidWorks for your design?

Also curious to know what size compressor wheel youre targeting to achieve the 500whp number, as well as whether the wheels will be your run of the mill material or if you plan on using billet, etc.

Is your turbo going to use the same size casing as the stock turbo?
If you mean like the same A/R ratio then yes so we won’t sacrifice too much spool with the larger wheels.

50mm inducer will be used and it will be billet. But we did some trick stuff with the machining of the wheel and the blade count selected.

Could try for W1NR (like short term for winner?) MO5T/MO57- (Most power on stock fuel pump? lol)

Did you want something typical code style or like a nick name/title?

Looks like this is going to be the best track build turbo.
agreed, Not aiming for the most peak power, working to get the most useable power on this one. Will be testing this with a few time attack cars.
