Default T4 Turbos

Does anyone know where I can find T4 turbos at the junk yard? T3s are easy but which vehicles did they put the T4 on? Thanks for any help!

Big diesel trucks. I dont know of any auto manufacturer that ever used a T4. Look in your area for truck recyclers, they usually have what you are looking for, but they know what its worth.

My buddy has a Z28 with twin T3 turbos. The motor is just a 305 right now but it is coming out this weekend and is being replaced with a 383 stroker. We figure a couple of T4 turbos would be better for this new motor.

If you are going to suggest a different turbo perhaps you could let me know where to find them. By the way, what is wrong with a T4? I can always use the compressor side with the T3 turbines if I could just find a T4 in the first place!

There's a guy in my town with a mustang 5.0 and he uses one t-4 from a semi on his car.
