Garrett T3 question
Would putting a Garrett T3 turbo on a TII be a good upgrade over the stock turbo? Just wondering because I hope to get a TII, and the owner of the shop I work at has a T3. The turbo isn't being used and I could probaly get it off him in exchange for some hours.

I think like they are max out around 350 hp. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
alot of after market turbo kits use T3's,T3/T4 hybrid, or T04b. Halo |
350hp would be plenty for me lol. So to answer my question it would be better than stock?
|
smaller then stock
|
aren't t3 turbos like REALLY small?
like, they're the stock turbo on geo metro turbos and etc, I think I might just be pulling this out of my ass, but I'm pretty sure that they're smaller than stock. good on an autocross car maybe, but not on a big HP highway monster. |
T3 and T4 use the same center section. But the housings and the wheels are smaller on the T3. Any T3 turbo is going to be way too small for a 7.

Ok thanks thats what I wanted to know.

T3s are the stock turbos on pre-88 dodge turbos and pre-87 ford 2.3 turbos. they can move enough air for highish HP (~300) but only at super high boost - the ford guys run 17-18psi to make 300hp and the dodge guys run boost past 30psi.
the buick 3.8 t-type/grand national used a larger version of the T3 - I *think* it's the Super 60 - this would be the only T3 i'd imagine would work any kind of good on a 13B. |
