Compressor Wheel of the Supra CT26

[TurboWarrior]

My fins are chipped to hell on my turbo. Can you replace just the compressor wheel without need balancing etc? How hard is it.

Is this the wheel? It says mr2 but im sure i read the intake is the same.

"The inducer diameter is 1.639 inches and the exducer diameter is 2.558 inches."

Same wheel?

Might as well do it right and have it balanced first off. Not sure on the MR2 comp. wheel though...

 

[MDCmotorsports]

No you can not simply just replace the comp wheel without the unit being balanced.

The mr2 wheel will work, although it is a little smaller than the supra wheel.

Alright thanks guys. Plan aborted

Ummm mwhy not send it in for a 57 trim and upgrade for 600 bucks and be done with it and make more power.

I WIN!!!!!!!

ct26 sucks, i blew two stockers already only boosting 13 psi

 

[TurboWarrior]

lol well when i have the money i will.

2 stockers? Ive been running it hard at 16 psi all summer. No problems yet. and did i mention the compressor wheel is chipped? lol

 

[fiyota]

what would be worse... a turbo with shaft play or a turbo with chipped compressor wheel?

^^^^ Just curious

13 pounds will kill a stock CT pretty fast...not to mention, that's close to the end of the turbo's efficiency range.

Shaft play, no doubt.

ER no.

The stock ct, in GOOD HEALTH, should be able to run @ 14psi all day long.

What kills a CT26 running 14psi is the fact that most of them have over 60,000 miles of hell and abuse on them.

I personally know that the Garrett wheel that replaces the stock ct26 makes full efficiency @ 15-17psi and can produce over 30psi!

Haha, well I am guessing there are very few people on this board who have a stock CT26 with less than 60,000 miles, unless it has been rebuilt/upgraded.

When you say "garrett wheel", is that a stock-sized replacement wheel, or a larger wheel?

 

[MDCmotorsports]

Stock sized wheel. ;-) Just garrett quality.

i ran my stock CT at ~15psi for a little over a year as a daily driver before it took a dump. i agree a stock ct in good health can last a while.
