i second this sizing

on another thought though...doesnt the T25 use the same flanges as the mitsu turbos? meaning you could end up with a Big 16G if you wanted to go bigger...

 

i ran a t3/t4 60 trim on my z24 cavalier... with .63 exhaust ratio. anyone that knows cavaliers they will know the ld9 had a crap head. I got full spool by 3300rpms so considering that into fact that turbo would respond well on the ecotec considering they have overall better design in general

 

yep thats the main reason behind my looking into that size

hmm.. now you have me thinking

 

plus u gotta consider what your plans are for the future.... if u plan on doing more to the motor then your going to benefit from not having to buy another turbo right away if it supports your needs now and then.

 

16G hybrid with 20G internals- or just go 20G

 

Some of the Mitsubishi turbochargers use T3 flange styling, some use a triangular 3-bolt flange styling.

Yes.

And measure how much space you have behind your engine and EXACTLY where everything would go including which direction your external wastegate extension on your manifold is going to go and which side you want your turbo flange to be on.

 

i figured i would get the mani from teh rebel kit. and the piping from the hahn kit and work from there

 

It's not going to be that simple especially since you're trying to mix and match.

The piping could literally be off by inches or the way you want / need it routed could be something different depending on your setup. The turbocharger you buy will effect the placement of everything. The placement of the flanges effects it too.

Seriously, find someone to weld it up for you. You're going to be disappointed when you spend money on piping and it doesn't fit like you thought.

 

I SUPPOSE . i never really thought of it that way

 

Yeah man. Trust me, everything is very nit pickish. Learn from my mistake, plot everything on your car. Even now, open up your hood and picture how much space you'll have for the turbocharger, where your external flange would be and if you would have enough space for the wastegate as well, where the piping would go in comparison. You really do have to picture everything and nit pick it.

 

ima straight up tell you your going to have to put alot of research into this...which im sure you know...and expect **** to happen that shouldnt....got studs in just last week in and 3 of them had to be custom cut to fit on the turbo...the one is so small the stud sits level with the top of the nut when fully tightened...if your really serious about this...then you better start doing some real planning...if you have any questions feel free to hit me up...as ive covered alot of the problems your probably going to come across....and im pretty sure rebels manifold is going to cost a shitload...3-400..maybe even 500...i priced one a while back but i dont fully remeber what it was...otherwise if your using that small of a turbo a standard log style should work fine....anyways good luck

 

so hows this project coming along?

 

It would appear that NRamLow got banned for some reason or another...

 

You know he is banned, why bump the thread?
