I know ill get flamed for it but i searched cant find anything.But i got a 99 9/5 turbo.It looks like a t3 flange but i dont know what size it is.And also if it would be a good turbo for a d-series setup.

 

I wanna say those have Garrett T25's. I'd be decent for a super quick spooling daily driver not looking for huge numbers. I'd rock it.

I'm pretty sure it's a GT17.

 

The Saab GT17 is a journal bearing turbo and is notorious for crapping out when over-boosted. The bearings inside it are ------- weird too. All long and cylindrical. Definitely not a conventional journal bearing. If you do have a GT17 (T2 flange looks like T3, but dimensions are smaller) then I'd throw it in the garbage and get an earlier Saab turbo which is a .42/.48 T3 (45 trim). The GT17 is a .47/.53, but that's T2 so it's much smaller. Good for 8psi> on a motorcycle or something haha.

 

I concur: GT17 = Crappy turbo. and it'S t25 flanged.

A old style saab turbo (t3 stage1, .48/.42 45 or 50 trim) is a much better choice, good for more power than a GT17 but maybe not spooling as fast but IMO much better appropriate for any performance application because rebuildable and upgradeable for cheap, and Flanged STANDARD.
