Yeah, AndresTurbo's or something to that effect. Personally I wouldn't recommend getting one from him, the first one I got blew up, sent it back, took him almost a month to replace it.

A T3/T4 is better, get a new ball-bearing that cost little more will yield better results then getting a rebuild one...

Honestly any turbo will work fine for what he wants. It seems he's trying to budget and a BB turbo is expensive

cool can anyone answer my question on the spooled motorsports turbos?

Yea... i think itd be fine for 12 PSI really... i mean considering a sunbird T25 i think maxes out at like 14PSI, and the T3 is bigger... id say you could max at like 18-20 PSI on the T3....

cool i really cant remember who told me that those were a little too small for our cars but if it would work then great lol im in haha. i noticed they have internal wastegates i can just remove it right? so i can use my external gate?



Re: ebay seller\?

I think it should be big enough... but anyway, i think you would have to weld the wastegate closed, but im not 100% on that, id make sure before you went and did it lol...

You do not have to weld an internal wastegate shut. You simply remove it and block it off with the flange that you will need for your downpipe. Call Blaastperformance and talk to Guillaume, he's a good guy and can recommend several turbo's for your application. I have a T3/T40E 50 trim .63 A/R exhaust housing from him and I have full boost at 3100rpm.

Ball bearing turbo's are great if you have the money and don't mind waiting a month to have them rebuilt if there's an issue.....
