    [QUOTE=HiPSI]basically, to find a turbo that fits your needs you need to "aim" for the center island of the chart. for example, the turbo you posted would be most efficient when set from 1.5-2.0 pressure ratio (roughly 22-30psi).

    Are you sure about those numbers?
    1.68 pressure ratio is 10psi I thought. I run 17psi which should be a little over 2.0 pressure ratio.

    Read this.

    You drive a Mustang GT? How much boost are you planning on running. How much power are you making? Stock motor? It seems like from that map the turbo will be most efficient at 10psi making about 300-400whp. Not saying you cant get more out of it or less. Most companies recommend 60% or better as far as compressor efficiency. So If your anywhere in that range the application should work but, you should give yourself room and try to get in the center of the map as much as possible.
