t3 turbo manifold

I'm looking for a t3 turbo manifold for an internal wastegate. Checked all over and had no luck. Does anyone sell these or do I have to have this custom made. Thanks

T3 is too small for a rotary really. Unless it is a screwed up GT series.


So there are no T3 manifolds. You might be able to get a T4 manifold and put a T3 flange on it though. that would be your best bet.



Still, T3 is gonna be too small.

Well.

It used to be thought that the T3 was too small, however the introduction of the gt35/40 hybrid has proved that to be untrue. On the other hand I don't know of any T3 footprint turbos other than the gt35/40 that are capable of dealing with a rotary and not choke it.

I was reading up and I think the holset hx35 use a divided t3 style, not 100% sure tho. They can make ~500whp.

SR Motorsports was actually selling them as their staged KKK turbos from what I have read.
