turbo questions

hey guys im picking up a turbo for now, as ill get my BB next year, it s at3/t4 turbo, but my question is

Garrett Airesearch
Model: T3/T04B (150-400 HP)
Compressor A/R: 0.60
Compressor 63 trim "V"
Turbine A/R: 0.48
Turbine trim: Stage 1
Flanges: T3 inlet,
5 bolts outlet



was used for 3 hours before, but enough

so i got a couple questions could i just take the impellors blades out of my supercharger, and use the supercharger as a intake manifold for now, less work trying to make a custom adapter plate for both the pulleys and the throttle body, is there anything else i should remove as well from the supercharger, one thing that is nice, is that id be able to return to stock easily if i ever sell, would make it easy to do a swap with someone local or willing to swap, i knwo it seems like im taking the easy way out but ive been thinking it through and i think it should be easy for piping and its one less thing to fabricate

please let me know, as ill be going hard asap on this, all that will be left for me to purchase will be my wastegate and piping, as i picked up a decent turbo header with external wastegate, i got a blitz blow off valve, i have oil lines, i have hptuners, i also have quite the motor build too, the next thing would be figuring out tuning

I would HIGHLY suggest you just get a kit. Like the Tag one.

I believe you can gut the stock blower and use it as a manifold. The blown 3800 motors have been doing it for turbo conversions
