My friend is selling a 35R off of his Talon TSI for dirt cheap. It has a .63 exhaust housing though. I just wanted to see if anyone was running that smallest housing and if they had any dyno sheets of it...

daaaaaamn that's a small *** housing! if he's selling it for a good deal, just get it and buy a larger housing. is it a T4?

yep, unfortunatly it is the T3 GT35R. Appartly rotaries are the only reason a T4 GT35R was made. But like I said I'm getting an awesome deal on it and the turbo has literatly less than 20 miles on it, and the only time it ever seen boost was on the dyno, right before it blew the engine. I guess a better question now would be how many people are running T3/T4 settups like this and what could I expect with the optional 1.08 AR turbine housing? I'm trying to hit 380-400 rwhp and I know for a fact lag time is almost inexistant on these 35R setups

T3 is too small for rotaries, especially if your shooting for 400rwhp.

dang that sucks. I guess I'm just gonna have to pass on this one. PT67 for me then

I challenge this statement. It is not the T3 turbine inlet that is the problem, it is his .62 AR turbine. A 1.06 AR would be terrific and can make 400.

T3 is not the problem. Its the .62 A/R that is going to limit your HP.

The man has spoken, i retract my statement. I never saw a T3 1.08 A/R hotisde. I guess if a BNR stage 5 can do ~400hp with a machined stockie, a right sized T3 can hit it too.

If you get a deal on the turbo then I have a GT35R 1.06 turbine housing I can sell you!! Let me know, Steve

Thats because there isnt a T3 1.08 housing . I had a 1.06 on my last setup and it was alright, died up top though.

okay, so does anyone know of any T3 manifolds that use two wastegates (one off of each runner)? Becaue I have two 38mm tials

theres a dyno sheet on cheapturbo.com in the 400 horse power club. It was done with a .82 T3 stage 3 exhaust wheel and a 60mm front wheel. Motor was 86 n/a with a very small port on the exhaust. Boost was 19-20psi. at the track it ran 11.7 at 123mph. car was a 1st gen at 2720 lbs.

i'd buy the turbo and just buy a new turbine housing for it for 150-200 bucks

yes, with the larger t3 housing you should be ok for the most part. it's gonna spool up quick and the torque will be nice, but as said earlier it will probably fall off up top a little.

should be a wonderful street setup

We have run Masterpower GT37, this uses same size turbine to Garrett gt35 shaft. I wanted to try a tiny housing, but a .7a/r divided t3 flange turbine housing was the smallest that I was brave enough to use.

The car was for drift application and we were willing to experiment by going with sizes that were considered by most as too small.

The 13b mild port made 415whp @7000rpm with 18psi boost.

We found that with such a tight housing the turbo needed to be run with wastegate larger than 50mm. The 10psi TurboSmart 50mm item being used was spiking to 20psi then settling back to 18psi.

Btw this car has also run an official 10.9 1/4ml a couple months back.
It’s the only 10sec drift car I have heard of.

I suggest you try this turbo and tell us all how it performs, but I recommend that you will need at least 2x 44mm items to control shaft speed with the tight .63 housing.

Keep us posted. Good luck!
