I was running a 60-1 hifi compressor with p-trim turbine wheel on stock journal bearings before. all i did is order a garrett BB 60-1 chra with p-trim wheel and swapped compressor backplate with my hifi and bolted the hifi compressor cover on. With some minor clearancing it fit pretty well. and the coolant ports were 14mm instead of 16mm, but no big deal but.. spool seems to have gotten worse by about 500 rpm, i used to get 15 psi by 3500 rpm with the journal bearing, now it doesnt hit 15psi till after 4k! what gives? the only reason i can think of why it spools slower is the added rotating mass from the inner race on the turbine shaft.. where as journal bearing has no inner race __________________ 1993 RX-7 Touring MB, stockport 13B-REW, 9.4CR rotors, T04S 60-1/p-trim single turbo 1986 RX-7 Base project track beast Last edited by 88turboii; 05-04-2010 at 10:17 PM..
