ok I'll try those, yes i'm looking at cheapturbo.com, their price seem quite reasonable. Has anyone tried the GT35/T3 or T4 combination, will the T4 hot side fit under the stock intake manifold? They do not specify the cooling style or bearing type of this turbo, does anyone know?

Thanks again,

Hey Anrew,
Don't forget the 360 degree
thrust bearing & water cooling
option. By the time you add up
the cost it's no more a 'Cheap
Turbo'

Thats only an extra $150 for both those options. It still works out pretty cheap.

Just to clarify, the Garrett "GT" turbos that most of us refer to on here as being awesome and better than everything else are their GT__R turbos, with ball bearings. If it's a sleeve bearing or thrust bearing, we're not talking the same thing.

seriously planning on it but not soon.maybe after i get a link2.if youre worried about the fittment,ive got hookups for that.its pretty much going to be like Area951's setup.

IIRC this is a HKS GT3037S

BTW as Sam says there's also an "ordinary" line of GT turbos... they can be found on most smaller Volvo trucks and aren't expensive or super hi-tech

Oops many posts here right now but I thought I'd share a pic of a 2.5 liter 951 with a GT37 installed!

shortyboy

why is that turbo upsidedown?well the like you posted wasnt a hks gt3037s here ya go

Duke

Oops posted the wrong pic! The car was right though

I think the reason the other car has the turbo outlet facing down is because it sits so high up that it might be clerance problems width hit the hood and because the intercooler flow will be reversed.
