t3 turbo

[jamesy]

has anyone run one of these before on a clio?

if so any good?

reason i ask,is im going all out this year,im forging,balancing,lighening etc,new manifold turbo etc.now i know some of you run a gt28rs but my mate has a 1.6 civic turbo running a t3 with standard internals,and it shifts, 258bhp on the dyno!!!

i know protoxide do a manifold for a t3 so i assuming it can be done and is a decent option???

first manifold on the picture

never run one but scoff has..no reason they won't work if you get the turbo right..there a black art...

think even bigger turbo's will work but lag will become more of an issue...

think GT28RS is about right...300bhp very little lag..

turbo right..there a black art...


Its called witchcraft!

T3 on a 1998cc engine is not that big, exhaust housing size plays a big part. If you have an engine that is built to rev having a turbo come on boost at 4grand is not going to be a problem. Look at what some of the ford guys use hanging off the side of there yb or zetec

[jamesy]

ah so it does fit then,cool,whos doing your map?and what system are you using?

[Justin..]

just using a fastchips chip for a bit to get any small problems ironed out then will get a remap. then in a year maybe go aftermarket ecu

"T3" tells you almost nothing.

you can get T3 family turbos raging from 130bhp to 600bhp airflow capability

need wheel sizes, trim, housing AR before you tell anything at all

[jamesy]

ok,just wondering if anyone had done it thats all, i have this availible to me and compared to my current turbo its a lot bigger i was wondering weather it would fit or not.
