BTW, in answer to my own earlier question about who, other than
Turbonetics, is offering or dealing in "super" Garrett TO4E compressor
wheels, I see that at least one other supplier, Majestic Turbochargers
in Waco, Texas is in the super-sizing business too

There are probably others as well.

One other thought occurs to me.  The author was "guestimating" AP in his
particular application of the formula at 14.5, not 14.7 psi.
Could that account for your 6.5% difference in cfm to lbs/min vs.. the
articles suggested 0.0756?




Oh yeah... and since PV=nRT, that percentage of reduction in atmospheric
pressure would amount to a little less than a 1.4% change.
