Trim = (Minor wheel diameter)/(Major wheel diameter)*squared* x 100.

If you were to take the compressor housing off and expose the compressor wheel the minor wheel diameter measurement would be the small end of the wheel and the major wheel diamter is the fat portion of the wheel.

Generally speaking the bigger the wheel the more air it can push. A bigger wheel also means it will take more energy to spin it.
