t3 equivelant
so doing some searching and i'm noticing a lot of people talking about the volvo t3's, saab t3s and dsm turbos but with other names. i'm just wondering what is the equivelant of the garrett t3 turbo? i'm wanting to push 8psi on my accord, hope to get up to about 215hp on it. also, which of these are going to have the internal wastegate? i'm looking for that when i buy my turbo.

Re:t3 equivelant
t3's come in so many different trims its a very generic term for the standard flange

Re:t3 equivelant
so mainly what i need to look for is the specs on the turbo, like a 50 trim .50 ar, internal wg, external wg etc?

Re:t3 equivelant
yup

Re:t3 equivelant
where are you looking for the turbo at?
a saab or volvo garrett is most common t3 most have a adjustable swingvalve preload |
Re:t3 equivelant
saab and volvo junkyards are where i'm heading out for this week to go turbo hunting for a t3.
but, after more searching, i've been looking more for a Garrett T3/TO4E 50 Trim W/.48 A/R Compressor Specs: flow: 46lbs/min 588cfm 50 Trim Turbine Specs: .48 A/R Housing Stage 3 Wheel with an internal wastegate have those been used in any cars yet as stock? if not i'll stick to a used t3 but if i could find one of those i'd be in heaven. and umm i'm still sort of a newb at this but, "adjustable swingvalave preload" means? that has something to do with the wastegate right? thanks |
Re:t3 equivelant
ok I know you have seen the little canister on a turbo
that is essentially the actuator control it is set at a certain spring rate when the rod that goes to the swingvalve has threads you actually adjust the spring tension generically tightning the spring inside and adjusting where it will open the integral wastegate |
