Default "chrysler T3" is bigger than .42

Hey i just wanted everybody to know... i had a T3 .42/.48 from a Saab.. i also had a "chrysler T3".. well, the saab t3 had bad seals or something so i took both of them apart to see if the center housings were interchangeable.. well what i found out when i took them apart is the chrysler T3 had a bigger compressor wheel than the Saab T3 .42/.48.

Just a little heads up to you guys that the chrysler T3 will most likely make more power... and everybody said they were crap :P

The Saab T3's come with many different trim levels. You're going to need to be more specific as the the year and model both turbo's came from (or the serial on the turbo) to make your generalities be worth any real consideration.

the flange is ***.
i have 4 new holes drilled in it to mount up to a t3 mani. it's ghetto but no leaks, but still some careful machining to get it done.
not worth a lot of peoples time.

you sound like a politician with generalizations and opinions trying to be facts.

what the hell is this? everybody knows what the hell the chrysler T3 is.

All im stating is that it has a bigger compressor wheel than a .42/.48 T3. Just as a .60/.48 T3 makes more power than a .42/.48, A BIGGER COMPRESSOR WHEEL IS A GOOD THING.

I thought maybe some people would like to know that, but i guess not.

A .42/.48 A/R T3 can have many different compressor wheel trims. Off the top of my head, I know the Saabs come in 40, 45 and 50 and I'm sure there are 1 or 2 more. So you really need to know which trim the Saab turbo was that you're comparing to. Get it now?

i have one of those Saab T3's also, how is it compared to a DSM T25? because the only reason i sold my last kit was to get a bigger turbo but i bought a small one, it's alright though because i got a .60 at my cousins waiting for me
