Does anyone know the size of the stock twins?
I have a friend who wants to put the stock 3rd gen twins in his car, but he needs to know the size of the turbos. If anyone knows then post them or email me @ FD3SBoost@hotmail.com
Thanks

If memory serves me correctly, they're Hitachi 51/57s ... or as jspecracer7 even better described them, "small."
I would strongly advise not trying to fashion the stock twins onto any other motor. It's dumb, it's not smart, and it's also dumb.

the fd's use 2 hitachi ht-12's
the fc's use one ht-18
and the 20b uses one ht-15 and one ht-10 or 12.
for a z28 you would want something bigger

Can it be? A villian stealing the FD3SBOOST name? I will let him know.....
oh yeah and it is a waste of time and to be honest it would take alot of time and alot of brains. Something most V-8 guys or as I like to think them as "necks" dont have. Not flaming here but I always get people around here
"Wanting to put turbos on there V-8s"

There isn't much point in using the 7s turbos because the way they are setup for our motor. It would take extra money to fab something up just to fit on the car. For that money you might as well just go out and get a turbo kit for the car or something.
