Did I F*** up???

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ory=33742&rd=1


I just bought that turbo without thinking if it is going to work on my car. He said it's a T04B and I really doubt it's a .60 A/R. My friend told me that it's too big for my FC. Did i really screwed this one up????? thanks!!!!

I believe the HKS cast manifold has a T4 flange. You can pick one up for cheap. Then a wastegate and a few lines and you're all set. What size is that exhuast housing?

you really need more info...

if it's .60 A/R exhuast then it's way too small. if that's the intake A/R. then it might be ok.

You'd need bigger injectors maybe, and a fuel controller for sure. Also a FMIC would definitaly be required. But as long as you get the right manifold it will fit.

yes yes..fuel is definitely there =) the problem i am having now is that the turbo might not spool due to the fact that the exhaust side is so freaking huge! i don't want it to spoll around 5k 0_o any opinions?? thanks!

I hope you know how to weld. If not, this would be a good time to learn.

If it's a .60 A/R exhaust side then it will be too small. It will spool up fast but will choke the engine in the top end. You need at least a .84 or a .96 A/R.
