where to get it?

im looking for a .60/.63 t3 with an internal wastegate and i cant find one, i searched the for sale thread, ebay, and a few other sites and i cant find hardly anything. What did this turbo come from so maybe i can do some different searches on ebay or something, im trying to do this on a budget (thats what hmt is all about) so buying a brand new t3/t4 with .60/.63 isnt really an option, so if anyone knows what car a t3 with those specs came on i would appreicate it

any ford 2.3l turbo thunderbird turbocoupe and mustang svo turbocoupe has this. the mercur xr4ti has the same motor but a slightly smaller turbo. they will both work well.

also i belive the single turbo 300zx has a .60 .63 trim t3. i think.....

Just keep looking but I've noticed the bigger t3s are becomiong rare. Either you find a used one which most likely needs a rebuild or buy a rebuilt/brand new.

A quick note on the T-bird turbocoupes:

Manuals have the .60/.63, autos have the .48/.60.

Unless you got one of those shitty years I forgot that used an IHI turbo.

Re: where to get it?

did you get a turbo? a guy i work with has 3 .63/.60's in MINT condition!! he doesn't know how lucky he is. he's using 2 to TT his mustang, but wants to sell the other one. pm me if you're still looking for one and i can get you pics.
