What kind of DP are you running? The next step down is a 44/49 which uses the same exhaust side. It won't spool much different. Maybe try to get a Garrett exhaust housing for the 60. I have one, but the wastegate hole has been opened up too big for a TH style DP.

or look out for a 49 with the garrett exhaust housing,
stock d5 converter loves that turbo.

or go 5857dbb if youve got the $$$.

That isnt a TE-60 maybe a 44 ???

Make sure the wastegate puck is covering the wastegate hole on the turbo.

That wastegate hole in that housing looks too large, also make sure you have a gn converter in your car, does it have D5 stamped all around it?

Post a picture of the compressor wheel. The turbine looks right for a 60.

My TE-60 didnt have a bolt on intake ... It was 1 peice ? I ordered mine new from precision. Ive noticed all the smaller tubos and stock are 2 peice

I'm not aware of either a TE44 or TE60 having the stock-type, bolt-on inlet bell?? This part looks more like a TA49?? If so, no real reason for slow spool--even with stock D5 convertor...UNLESS,,,

A possibility is the exhaust-side turbo housing being a larger (.8x) size vs. the more desirable .6x size...

 

[antiquettype]

Not sure

I can't ID the turbo, but like others have said it is not a TE60. I have used a TE60 on a slightly modified car with no spool up problems at all. I would look for other problems if you are having troubles spooling that turbo.

First off guys,
TE series turbo's DON'T have the bolt on bell. TA series do.

 

[sinister87GN]

dam you guys are good this 1 is NOT A TE60 it said 60 air so i messed up but on the neck scribe is GT 3255A so what kind of power does this make i took this of my car maybe i have the te60 on my gn now what do you think now???

 

[sinister87GN]

Here is the pic of the intake side sorry for the f up

 

[turbomatt]

Definitely a TA series turbo. Compressor housing looks to small in the picture to be a 60.The stamping on the housing refers to the a/r ratio of the housing and it is a .60.....Try to get a measurement of the diameter of the compressor wheel using a dial caliper. it will more than likely be either 56 mm, 58 mm, or 60 mm. this will help narrow it down, you may have to take off the inlet bell to get close enough to the wheel to measure it. Let us know.
