WOW!!! All I have to say. This should certainly go the the Archives . Very good technical post Chris! I'll play with my PC and will try to make a program that will calculate that for us on the fly. I can use the current compressor maps to have the program plot the efficiency as well. Stay tuned!

This is interesting...I did cross reference on the Opel EPC (Electronic Parts Catalogue) and

Lifters C16NZ engine
GM Part #: 90295215
Kat #: 6 40 051

Lifters C20NE engine
GM Part #: 90295215
Kat #: 6 40 051
