Coulpe t4 turbo questions

[oldsking]

Hey guys, so yeah I just scored a t4 turbo and the guy was unable to "find" the brackets and bolts for the compressor housing and exhaust, where can I get some at?

Also, I've seen people run a .70 a/r turbo (like mine) with just a filter on it and no maf? I don't see the hose and such, just a filter, how is that?

I might need a spacer to raise it also because it will hit the header when I angle it to mount the hose for the intercooler looks like. If it helps I have an Xspower style t4 header from ebay.

Thanks in advance guys!

Depends on what turbo it is bud.

They run filter or AFM less because they have a MAP Based Piggyback or standalone.
Google: Maft Pro or MAP ECU for said piggybacks.

Spacers are eazy to come by.

It's a masterpower turbo t61 i think?

i have a feeling you're getting in way over your head. Stop. Research. Rethink.

there is no such thing as over your head or overkill

If only you have the patience, brain power, and money to support yourself and project.
Many lack all three...

^though the most common reason is the third reason with the brain power in very close second

Thanks for the insight guys but there is no "lack of brain power" here haha I am very car knowledgeable and not a typical "bench racer". I do work on my cars all the time & nobody touches them.

I still yes need to do research on the MAF comp. stuff but that'll be later on down the road. Main concern is getting the right bolts to use with brackets, I don't want to get some crappy bolt for a turbo set up because I know there is plenty of heat to contend with.

your best option is selling that turbo and buying a kit from driftmotion fo r1500. So worth it and top quality. Includes everything you need with turbo

The 7m Driftmotion kits are 2400.

The 7m Driftmotion kits are 2400.

maybe for the GT35r kits

The 7m Driftmotion kits are 2400.

You should revisit dm and look for 7m 60-1 turbo kit

But I have mostly all I need for my turbo motor build already. The turbo I have is a great turbo, no shaft play and really strong. I just need a couple clamp/brackts to hold down the exhaust & front housing to the turbine haha I'm not going to spend another 2000 just for a turbo kit.

^1500

Well I do know it's a turbo built by Mike's Turbo so I feel pretty confident on it. I got a shop here to look at it tomorrow for me if not I'll just call Mike's turbo I guess. Might have to get a 90 degree bend to clear the manifold looks like
