CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

so i scored myself a CT26(off a MR2/Alltrac) turbo that was rebuilt about 5k miles ago and was upgraded to a 50trim as well. pretty nasty little turbo. my buddy ended up upgrading his turbo on his toyota and said eh you can have it so yeah for a free turbo!!!! anyway my question is...

im gonna be slapping it on my H22 swapped civic and i need to figure the manifold part out and thats about all i have left to do! so anyone know any cool sneaky ways to take the H22 manis and adapt into a CT26 flange (like you can on the d series)

or....

swap out the turbo housing on the CT26 to a T3 type flange to just get a T3 manifold for the H22....


any ideas i have tried ebay and all that good stuff and have come up with no luck :(

Thanks in advance!!!!

OMG I got the most unique idea ever, get this, you ready,........................... make your self a log. :P Weir has everything you will need.

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

sell the turbo.. it's worth money, not the time. buy a 60/63 or a t3/t4 and be done with it. will be cheaper if not a few bucks more

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

yeah there is always that...but if anyone else has another suggestion thats more what im looking for

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

thought about that too... i have a CT26 and a TD04 turbo just chillin....both i snagged for free :)

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

td04 will be a good track turbo for like 10psi, much more than that and honda head efficiency passes up the turbos output. sure doesn't matter that a sti makes 300hp on 13psi with that turbo, it doesn't rev to 8000

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

yeah for right now im gonna be running around 6-8PSI since i have a WICKED high compression of 10.6:1....after i blow it ill relseeve and rebuild the motor later on down the road. but 6-8 PSI should lay down some decent numbers for me

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

i've got a T3 to Ct26 adapter flange sitting on my kitchen table since the ct didnt end up fitting in my car, i'll let it go for $75 + shipping, LMK

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

sweetness i sent you an email!

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

You probably need a twin scroll flange, not a single inlet flange I'm assuming since it's from an 3SGTE.

The H22 has no manifold you can "adapt" like on the D-series, if by adapt you mean make an adapter plate, unless you want to make a topmount out of the 4-2header.

Wiertech has the flanges you seek.

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

where do i find this wiretech stuff?

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

thanks for that...not used to this forum at all. and i tried googling it. but came with nothing

thanks though

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

Man I've used a ct26 freshly rebuild with t04e internals. Went nuts.
In factory form most of them have seen better days , but on the b16 it flowed beautifullly/ :6

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

youre from the northeast section of the us correct?? 10.6 isn't crazy for a boosted honda. timing is your friend

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

EMS is going to be the key to keep the motor together. BTW since I am in a good mood you might as well ask the other noob questions you have saved up now, and I might help ;).

Re: CT26 turbo manifold question....
 

no im from the southwest actually...


and what other noob question might that be? im not a noob to honda man. i have built them before. this is just my first boosted one. im a moderator on another honda forum as well. Hondas are not new to me....
yes EMS is gonna be the key here....that is why im not gonna ---- around and im going AEM. i have seen time and time again where AEM has out performed ANY and ALL EMS systems out there...seen the dyno sheets to sell me enough on getting it.

and just so you know i checked out the wiertech people someone suggested and they do not make that flange from a CT26 to a T3...seem like very nice people and said they might be able to work something up but havent gotten back to me besides that.


so here is my current set up. well plan is.....
i have a stock JDM closed deck H22A motor in a EJ6, has no AC or P/S (did have P/S to begin with and A/C wouldnt fit oh well.)
right now i have a CT26 turbo rebuilt hybrid to a 50 trim with an internal wastegate preset to 8PSI...3SGTE DP (gonna be changed out to a 3 in DP with cut out and then merged to my 2.5in exhaust (i know its small thats why im gonna cut it out, and its a track car so i dont care how loud it is, but thats the plan for now)
then i have a 2core FMIC
HKS SSQ BOV
660cc injectors
manual boost controler(if it will work not sure but im getting it for free)

so currently all i need is FMIC piping (got that taken care of when im ready) a manifold (why im asking this question) and then tuning system (AEM) oh and oil lines and ---- but thats just kinda minor technicalities when actually building the thing

drive it till it blows up....
rebuild and do it again! haha

so anyway...no sure what noob question you had in mind....
