So I've got turbos littering the floor now it's insane they are not THAT bad, not perfect but for a common standard turbo they are capable enough.

i ve got it used for 50$ thats what i do i buy them cheap 50$ at one up pull it yard and 35$ at the other then clean them up (and rebuild them if need be) and sell them or use then in kits for people for extra cash

i welded up the internal wastegate and fulled the flange so it will fit the t4 flange on my header and made the oil adapter

a couple things...

1) i hve 2 turbos id like to sell. dont know the model numbers, but i know one has an internal wastegate and one is like a t3/t4

2) if you know how to modify the flanges... could you enlighten me? id like to put the t3/t4 on my 2 if at all possible. (the flange on the turbo is bigger than the flange on the header i have AND i need to extend it some. id like to run maybe 3lbs boost max and mostly run vacuum for gas mileage. any input would be greatly appreciated. dont mean to thread jack

i guessing you have like a t4oe or t4ob? so i think the hot side flange is 2.75 inch x4.50 right? whats the .ar it will be stamped just in side the top of the hot side at the top if its a ebay turbo its probubly a .48?

you'll have to change the hot side of the turbo or mod the header flange it self if you post up some pics of the turbo and the header i could give you a bedder idea of what needs to be done sorry i have to leave for work so if you can post pics and ill finish this post tonight around 6:00

Well I came up with an adaptation plate that goes from ct26 to td04 if you can wait a day or so I can show pics it really wasn't that hard to make and you could have something similar made it is basically a tube that morphs shape from square to round and tapers at the same time I made it from heavy pipe and cut/welded it to do it. Also extended the length and mounted the turbo lower which is good.

EDIT: where do you get 3psi wastegate springs? that is insane low you maybe you could use the spring out of a pen in the wastegate lol

Garrett has a lot of 4 psi wastegates because they wont you to use a mbc or ebc so if it were to fale it defaults to 4 psi (no blown motor) but thats what they wont you to use on like a 8-10 psi set up i have 2 4psi wastegates from turbos i got from Garrett (i learned this info from the garret tech guy i talked to)
