careful on that eBay turbo... It doesnt give you enough specs about the turbo. I'd ask for more info before bidding on it. Plus hes not giving you close-up shots of the actual turbo.

Heres a few pics of the turbo on my car now. seeing your turbo, the compressor housing on your turbo is different then mine but anyways...

ya it looks like yours is bigger. and you don't have the internal blow off valve. don't u hate the shitty fitment. I mean the thing is tinny, yet it takes up alot of room.
what are you doing for oil lines?

what do you guys think a bout a tdo5 14b? will it be any good for my set up?

and I found this eBay Motors: T3 Turbo with manifold for 2.3T Mustang SVO, Tbird (item 160328442475 end time Apr-19-09 1951 PDT)

what do you guys think?

yea fitment sucked cause i wanted to run a/c p/s but there was no way i was gonna run a/c unless i used an external gate but ---- that. i didnt wanna spend money on anymore ---- since this was a budget build.

as for oil lines, i went on ebay and ordered that cheap oil line for around $25 with a built in oil restrictor on the flange for a t3 turbo. I havent had a problem with it before but thats just me. As soon as i fix the oil leak on my oil return(JB weld the ---- out of it already just gotta wait for it to dry) my car will be on the road again.

car is alive now. running a map from xenocron's bin directory "new turbo civic map" and runs pretty good. stock wastegate at 5psi. gonna make a boost controller and bump it up to 7psi and then 10 when i get my wideband on.

MoFasterthenUr's

do you have OBD0 or 1? so your running a chipped computer for now?

MoFasterthenUr's

is there a way to run lower boost then what the wastegate is set at. I want to run like 3 or 2 psi until I get it dyno tuned. because I'm going to have to wait until next month to get a good tune. but I want to be able to drive my car around for alittle.
