What is the brand of turbo that's on the T2 stock? My friend has a turbo for sale I'm goin' to buy off of him... it's not big enough for his V-6.

Yup. It's a Hitachi. Looks something like this, minus the compressor wheel upgrade. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/bigok.gif

it's a garett T3 turbo... found a manifold for it today on the net... didn't have a price tho... was pretty nice lookin'. Need to find other stuff for it now... like fuel injection, blowoff valve, etc.

there are alot of t3's any more specs on it?? a straight t3 might be kinda small for a rx7 dependong on what kind of t3...

None as of yet... I'll try to get more for ya tomorrow... I'll post them if I do get them.



My friend did take it to a turbo specialist and he said he wouldn't put it on anything more than a 1.5L engine. I thought it would be great for my 13B.

Agent_Orange 02-01-2006 12:25 AM

He also said it's a T3/T4 hybread... if that helps.

ohh ok... just remember as far as turbo sizing goes the 13B moves as much air as probably a 2.5L or more

more info from what ive gathers

the stock turbo is a Hitachi HT-18S-2S its said to be similar to a garett t3/t4 with an S trim, the ehxuast side is rather large tho cant be 100% tho

Agent_Orange 02-03-2006 12:41 AM

ok... I'm picking it up from my friend tomorrow... I'm trading my supercharger for it... he can use the s/c and I'm pretty sure that the turbo is gonna work out pretty good on the car... I'll bring it to the INWR meeting for who ever is gonna be there.
