Is this turbo any good?
Hey guys,
One of my buddy's is selling a Turbonetics t3/t4 turbo. I was just wondering if, once i get a manifold made, would i be able to use it for my 7, or is it too small of a trim?


T3/T4,

T3 lightweight turbine with a T4 high airflow exhaust. Low inertia and fast boost responce. Turbo capable of 500whp!

New, turbo would reatil for over $1300

The rebuild at cost, cost me a little over $600 and it has less then 500km's on it.

It spooled fully by 4000rpm op a b18C engine.

I'm not 100% sure but the trims were: .57 compressor and .47 a/r

$700 (Canadian) o.b.o

Sounds like a tiny Honda type turbo, man.

Just to give you some numbers, rotary guys generally run a .70 A/R Compressor and between .96- 1.30 A/R turbine...

too expensive too, you can get a bigger turbo for cheaper somewhere else. i dont think that turbo is all that much bigger than the stock one.

That's what i thought But then again, since it spooled at 4000, i figured it just MIGHT be big enough

Ah well... damn hondas
