turbo a?

[TooGoode]

i just recently purchased a new turbo.....i got a really good deal on it and the guy said it would fit my car so i got it. all it says on is is A it looks like a ct26 but with a bigger wheel.... is it ok to run it with a stock setup, aside from a 2.75 in. exhaust?

of course it would be alright, no big deal, besides you might hit fuel cut a little earlier if it really was bigger, but are you sure its not from a 3sgte motor?

if it is from a 3sgte it won't work on our cars because of the bolt patern

heres a pic.....

will it fit the same flange as the ct26 or is it just a ct26 upgraded?

 

[spoolme]

do you got a pic of the exhaust side?
if its from a 3sgte motor, the wastegate would be different, like a duel entry. its actually smaller than the ct26 on the supra.
you have to watch out when buying them, cuz people think they are the same, and they arent.

heres the exhause side.....

well it looks the same, clean that nasty goop off there and get a real gasket tho for sure.
but thing for you to do, is put it on and see if it fits.
doesnt look like the wheel is any bigger than stock (43mm)

Im pretty sure mine has an "A" on it too. I think they all do.

of course the turbo is all cleaned up now.....i just have to prime it and let it rip!

oh...and uh...did you ever give my pic credit? lol

heres the exhause side.....

Holy Crap.. Keep your fingers crossed that the brilliant use of gunk used for the gasket didn't git in the turbo...

It looks like a standard wheel to me.. :dunno:

oh...and uh...did you ever give my pic credit? lol

haha yes i did.....so is my turbo just basically a rebuilt ct26? why is the "toyota ct26" covered up? the actuator has been moved too...it goes over where the "toyota ct26" letters used to be.
