For the money, just find a good used CT20B. Although for $1400 wasn't there a shop here running a GB on a complete aftermarket setup for around that price?

However.....

You need to find out WHY your turbine wheel came apart. Did something go through or come off your motor internally??? Was it just wheel failure??

Well the inlet side still spins good not even grindning and the bearing is smooth. Nothing came out the engine or from any where from what I can tell. I do not know what it looks like behind the exhaust well when a ct26 is working or what parts are there but I found a chunk of magnet looking rock chip about the size of a small grape is that a piece of ceramic? Its grey in color or is that what broke my ct26? When I seay the wheel is gone even the rod or what ever the wheel sets on is gone

The deal on the turbo kit on 6gc can some one tell me a little more info on it? Ther are many different turbos they have with the kit whick to get? I have a stock gt tranny so 300hp is the limit is guess but might get a new tranny in the future so Maybe if I get a bigger turbo anf just run low boost until 300hp and in the future be ablr to turn the boost up when I get my tranny. How reliable are these ems turbos and does anyone have one installed yet? I can swing enough for one of these turbos but for 300hp they say bolt on do I need somthing to control air fuelect with these kits? I read there bolt on an from what I get you dont need any type of aftermarket fuel controller correct me if I am wrong thanks

post pictures.

Will do tommorow I looked at it closer and it seems the stud or rod the 2 turbo wheels in an out well the stud is broke in the middle right before it hit the housing that why the inlet wheel spins good still in fact when I spin the inlet wheel I can feel the rub left on the exhaust side spinnining and I feel where it broke off. so I guess half the rod broke ff thats why the wheel is gone. I guess I snapped the rod but why I dont know could I be old?

I found a good deal on a garrett gt series turbo its a gt3582r A guy on mr2oc had 1 on a mr2 3sgte and made 350hp on 14lbs So I guess at 10-12lbs I can make 300hp then add more pressure when I get my tranny. What do I need for this turbo to work With a t3 adaptor plate how much room do you have with the turbo and adaptor bolt to the engine? So I need a adaptor plate, external wastegate, oil lines what else? Heres the link http://www.mr2oc.com/showthread.php?t=348162

also where could I get a down pipe for this turbo?

Will the GT3582 clear the hood?

It will with my ram air hood not my carbon hood

NOOOO way too big of a turbo on your setup... gt3582r is supposed to be making upwards of 500+ horses... you will need huge injectors and a standalone to run that turbo... you will have terrible terrible spool lag without a full engine overhaul.... get the one that baktasht (sp?) is selling in the group buy... it is a borg warner turbo... same turbo porsche's run stock... it'll run forever and seems like they have been putting up some great numbers... you're looking at one of the bolt on kits... its bolt on... made for even stock injectors and everything....

yea found that out from a freind that had hellish turbo lag so thats out. So I am in contact with a friend that has a greddy/ihi turbo kit with dp, adaptor plate oil/waterlines wastgate everything I need to bolt on and go he had it on his mr2. The only thing is the wastgate sticks down a bit not sure if i will have room. I am getting the specs of the turbo Ii know its journal bearing

Sounds like a refurbished or just brand new turbo from Fensport.co.uk , will do the trick for ya!

Actually a GT3582 wont have that much lag. i have one on my 2ZZ and its smaller than a 3S or 5S. it spools fairly quicky. but a GT3076 will be a much better turbo to use

The GT3582 would actually be amazing! Remember too that if you get a Garrett one it will be a BB Turbo. Sure there would be a bit of lag, but you could make some serious top end power. Turbo lag is just dramatic anticipation of a guaranteed win.

the 2zz spools up turbos very well due to the high compression (11:1 compared to 8.8 or 8.5:1 for 3s-gte engines).

What size exhaust housing is it, for example a .62 housing would be reasonable on a 3s or 2zz, but a .84 would make more power but be less streetable.

A 3582 is a big turbo, effectivly its a gt35 turbine and core with a gt40 compressor wheel and compressor housing.

my vote is a gt2860 (disco potato with a .64 rear housing) for a very very streetable turbo that'l make reasonable power, say full boost by 3k and capable of making 400+hp.

or the gt3076 again with .64 rear housing, good for more like 500 hp, expect to wait untill 3500-3700rpm for full boost

spool times vary depending many other things (eg cams, compression, engine health etc) thats just a rough guide.

Its similar to a gt2871r the turbo I am lookinag at, Do you thing a gt3255e is to big its 63. ar

a .60 front and .63 rear would be a good size snail for a 3s

Im in a similar situation. Im turbocharging my 5sfte and im looking at:
- GT3071 450hp or
- GT2871 400hp
both with .64 rear housing.

I still dont know what to decide on... It just determing spool times etc.. and how much they differentiate from a 3sgte. I mean +.2 capactiy but FE head.

Car will be used on W/E only with occasional circuit racing and will eventually be a BUILT ENGINE. & 3SGTE IS NOT AN OPTION.

Im leaning towards gt2871...

Yes its hard to decide you dont want to spend all that money and get the wrong one or not be completly happ with it. If the gt28 and gt30 both have .64 ar how different are the two? And compared to the gt32 I probaly will buy with the .63 ar. are they all basically the same because they have pretty much the same intake and exhaust size? And are you on a st or gt tranny and not a mr2 turbo tranny? Thats what I am worried about also like breaking ales an breaking my tranny. Will eventually get a e153 tranny but dont want 300+hp and be short lived because of somthing breaking. Any one know the difference in a gt2871 and the turbo I am looking at the gt3255e? Hey is your gt turbo ball bearing?
