50 trim ct26

[brs86supra]

i was wondering if a 50 trim ct26 is good for making reliable hp, how much hp would i expect to get from one adn how much should i pay for one with a fresh rebuild, with 0 miles on it.

a 50 trim isnt worth it imho. its such a small step up from the stock wheel youd just be better off getting a rebuild and be done with it or going with a 57 trim whell. check out mdc as mentioned above

so what your hp goals....

 

[brs86supra]

my goal istnt that big maybe 300-400rwhp what do you think about a 60 trim ct26 is that more sufficient

 

[Mr.PFloyd]

300-400 is a big range, 60-1 will get you very high in that range at 1 bar + fuel mods. .

60-1 is too big for a ct26 housing if you want reliability. 57 trim seems to be the best for power and longevity. You can make around 375whp max with a 50 trim, and the spool is pretty fast. 57 trim spools almost the same and can make around 400whp, maybe a little more. All the threads from a while back about people blowing up their ct26 were all 60-1 iirc.

Had my 60-1 for about 4 months I want to say and I haven't had any problems with it.
Then again it has a t-4 center housing, not sure how much that would affect anything?
In my own opinon, if it's done right and done by a good company, and you take care of it, there's no reason it shouldn't last long.
Anything to add or correct me on Aaron?

 

[bigaaron]

If you upgraded the shaft then I can see how it would work better.

 

[brs86supra]

so whats the most i should pay for a 50 trim if thats what i decide to get. since thats all i would need to accomplish my hp goal

 

[bigaaron]

I get em done for $525 including the return shipping. 50 trim up to 57 trim.
I can ceramic coat the exhaust housing too for an additional charge.

 

[brs86supra]

bigaaron you wouldnt happen to have any spare ones just lying around by any chance would you cause i really need a new turbo mine is shot

Is that with the core sent to you or with you using a spare?

 

[bigaaron]

I have one available at the shop waiting for rebuild, $625 including the turbo and the upgrade.

 

[bigaaron]

$525 is if you ship me your turbo and I get it upgraded and ship it back.

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

Ok cool. I'll keep that in mind when I'm all finished.

 

[MDCmotorsports]

Depends on which 50 trim guys. The common 50 trim to4e wheel makes 48lbs.

 

[brs86supra]

so what size trim do you guys think i should go with for my hp goals

 

[MKIIINA]

...57 trim spools almost the same and can make around 400whp, maybe a little more....

i agree like i said in my first post, 57 trim ftw

 

[ViR2]

as said above, 57trim is the best in CT26 housing
