i dont think there are any other turbos that will bolt on to the stock turbo manifold. im pretty sure the RX-7 turbos have its own footprint thats between a t3 and t4




for the amount of work it is to use the stock turbo, its prolly less to use a full to4 and stuff

stock t2 turbo doesnt bolt onto an na motor, without enough fabrication to make a full t04 easier

I'm using a TII LIM, portmatched to a 6port block, and an FD UIM, portmatched to the LIM. I'm not going to run into the fitting issues Aaroncake did with his N/A manifolds.



Thanks for that ebay link... that looks quite tasty, I'll have to see what my paycheck tomorrow will allow me. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png.

The problem isn't the motor, the problem is clearance with the intake manifolds. I'm using a TII LIM, so no problem.

A 50 trim T3 turbo has a compressor wheel about 5% smaller than the stock turbo, but the exhaust side is considerably smaller. I have only heard of one person using a T3 turbo on a 13B, and it was a super 60 compressor. The HP capability is about the same as the stock turbo, but it spools a little faster.



Just get a stock FC turbo and manifold. It will be the easiest to make work.
