ct 26 upgrade???

[oscolivar1]

i was planning on getting an upgraded ct26 turbo....mainly because im not looking for a huge turbo or big demands on horsepower.....
Does any one have the upgrade CT???
can u use the same oil and water lines???
was it an ez fit???
any other mods u made???
any info would be appreciated

i dont have it but you use all the same lines and stuff, its going to be the same physical size as your ct now, just with a bigger wheel inside. when you look at the turbo its going to be the exact same in appearance until you step on the gas and its pulls harder i was talking to my friend about it because i was thinking about doing it to mine, now i dont think im gonna do it, because we've heard from a lot of guys that the shaft doesnt hold up too well after a while.
here's a link to performance techniques, good luck man.

it's a bolt on affair. all they do is bore it out and change the internals.

When I was building mine a friend had already been the CT-26 Hybrid (AKA 60-1/CT-26) and recommended I go for the full T4 60-1 and I havent regretted it one bit. The full T4 60-1 is everthing you could want from a "first" upgraded turbo. Make sure to get the "O" trim turbine housing AR of .70 or smaller is the best for NOW spooling. Might run out of steam above 500RWHP but you can deal with it then. Mine Made 335 RWHP at 10~13 (creeping to 13) PSI. WG didnt flow enough. But the fuel was fine now Im up at 21 PSI, and it rocks the house. I am supposed to Dyno it Saturday, I will post results then.
