What's he putting that on? Please say an amazon.

Something Garrett, and from a truck. Looks like a T4 turbine inlet flange.

I trust if that's going on anything smaller than a T6 motor that it's going to rev way north of 6k, or you're not going to have much powerband

Just bought the turbo for the 360 - Garrett (Cossie) T3 with a .63 A/R exhaust housing. The cold side is a bit smaller than is ideal (.42 A/R), but I think it'll be fine. I can always bolt a bigger housing on.

I was guessing truck... thats maaaasive! my turbo is like 50x smaller lol i feel erm like a need a bigger turbo?

Mines T2 i think.. still havent confermed this.

[foggyjames]

Well that is only a 'mini' CD, so it's not that huge

Is this for the 1.7? The T2 is a bit small for 'performance' usage (IMO), but a T3 would be plenty large enough.

cheers

Yeah dude, that cd had me fooled too.
A turbo that size wouldve sucked your hat off!

So c'mon, what's it going on

Glad the mini CD had some of you confused

It was intended to go on the 244 turbo. It is a tad big so perhaps a supercharger will be needed for the low end of things

We need to get the MS wired in and working before going any further.
