Swapped S366 standard for S369sxe What to expect
#22
You can see on the 66 where it looks like they have taken a grinder to the edges of the turbine. Thats what I meant by clipped. If you see a 69mm wheel turbo that doesnt have the speed sensor port then it is not the sxe. Also it shouldnt have a turbine housing with it unless you purchased it that way.

I think the big issue with larger displacement engines like these V8s is the shape of the compressor housing. There is a thread on LS1tech about back plate to housing clearance or something.

Theoretically, if you have a larger/more effient waste gate, couldnt you get away with a more restrictive turbine?
Farmer logic tells me the fin design of the sxe turbine needs a smaller volume of air to spin it to a similar RPM. Therefore allowing for greater use of the wastegate, but not necessarily hurting flow.
