Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

I ice race a little CRX with a 1.5 d15 motor. I am never under about 3400 rpm. Is this Toyota turbo too small. Or will it work out ok. I have a TEo4H going on right now, but I'm planning a setup for the big wide open tracks that we sometimes race. Thanks guys

If I were you, I'd sell the CT26 and buy some type of T3. There are more upgrades that way, and you could probably sell the CT26 for quite a bit.

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

the ct26 is about the same size as a 63/60 T3 which will be a bit laggy

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

yeah but if he's gonna constantly be in the upper rpm's then I'd say go for it but once you get under where it's gonna be building boost then your car is gonna be sluggish so bad it's gonna feel like total ----.

which ct26?

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

:o Yes which ct26?
Supra version or the celica version there is a difference in the wheels just from what i have seen.

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

To be 100 percent honest. I don't know ??? I think it came of a late 80's Supra. It has one inlet, I guess the MR2 had two inlets.

Were do you ice race? My budy and I wanted to prep my Nissan NX2000 for ice racing just for the hell of it.

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

I don't know if this really matters, but this car gets raced on the ice in the winter. It's been under -30 and about 50 degrees is the hotest we will run in.
Check out the ice racing pics on this website

the early celica all-trac ct26 had single inlet like the supra.
you need to do some measurements on the compressor to be sure.
Supra:
Comp. Inducer
1.75"

Dang, ice racing so sooo tempting 8)

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

You should come check it out. We race just north of the twin cites!

Ice racing = so much sideways fun! I just picked up my latest ice racer,a 1989 325iX, AWD here I come! ;D

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

Ice racing is the most fun you can have with your pants on. Where are you from late apex, I would hate to run agaist that AWD BMW.

Randy,
PS Is this turbo too big????????????

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

I would get a slightly smaller turbo.

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

Damn only one stop in Canada and its 8hrs from me!!!

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

I live outside of Boston, ice race in New Hampshire. If I was to ice race a turbo car, I would rather have something *slightly* laggier as opposed to some tiny snail that will spool violently. If you have it, and don't mind doing the fabrication, throw it on and see what you think 8)

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

Indeed, I hope you have the CT26 from the Supra rather than the Celica... the celica ct26 is pretty small, even for a D15..

Re: Toyota CT-26 on a 1.5
 

Thanks guys for all your help and advise. Too bad that I cut the hell out of a finger this week. Now there is no fab work in my future for a week or so. I'm going with my small turbo first, then if I have time-money than I will play with this turbo. I just needed to know what I had in the garage. Maybe a 2.0 litler is in my future, that would spin this toyota setup.
