would a 57 trim ct26 bolt on to my 7m withouight modifications?

[mk3<3]

also would it fit into ct26 turbo manifold?

 

[hvyman]

Ct's will fit on stock 7m turbo exhaust manifold. 7m came with ct26. The only difference in a 57trim is a bigger turbine wheel.

 

[mk3<3]

what about to upgraded manifold(headers).....so it will bolt rite in?

also do u know what turbin wheel clips are?

 

[GrimJack]

There are no upgraded exhaust manifolds for the CT series.

 

[mk3<3]

for real? i ordered one from sonic motors and i asked for a turbo manifold for the 7mgte and they sent me one but yea i just checked and it doesnt fit on my ct26 :/

Clipping the exhaust fins is supposed to help with spool

Can you show us a pic?

 

[GrimJack]

There are plenty of upgraded exhaust manifolds. Just not ones that will fit the stock CT26, or anything crammed into it's housings, for that matter. No point, the stock exhaust housing will easily outflow the CT26 hotside.

Negative. It will do exactly the opposite. The theory is that it will allow more top end by sacrificing spool. I seem to recall that it's frowned upon, but check with some actual turbo experts if this sounds like an option you wish to pursue.

Just so you know, the 57 trim DOES have the potential of putting you in the range of fuel cut on cold days if you've got a decent intake/exhaust on the car. Just so you're not suprised if you hit it.

 

[mk3<3]

i have a 3 inch down pipe with three itch straight pipe.....and intake im still looking for for one that fits into the 57 trim because mine sure ass hell wont fit in it

yea i checked and my turbo isnt even close to sitting on it rite.... and idk what the 2 pipes coming down r for? thanx for all ur guys help-

 

[hvyman]

Thats a t4 flange manifold. You wont find one with a ct flanged manifold. You either have to get a t4 turbo or an adapter from t4 to ct.

The 2 pipes coming down are for a external wastegate. The ct use's a internal wastegate so you would need to block that off also.

Might as well just wait and get a t4 turbo or sell and just use the stock manifold.

 

[EdT.Mk3]

That looks like one of the T4 manifolds which are a clone of the JDM spec T4 manifold. The difference being that it doesn't compensate for your A/C and you'll notice it's a bit "tight" if you put an actual T4'd turbo on it. ex. I squeezed a 60-1 on mine with a 3.5in downpipe, but had to do some banging around.

 

[mk3<3]

hmm well i guess im goint to have to use my stock manifold...thanx alot for ur guys help

 

[mk3<3]

well hey one more question? wat size is the com housing for the 57 trim?

 

[supraguy@aol]

The input and output diameters? stock. How large is the impellor? 57mm.
The ONLY difference between a 57 trim and stock is that they bored out the interior of the comp. housing and used a larger impellor.
Sell the stainless manifold. You don't need it. Bolt the 57 on, and bolt the downpipe to it, and the accordian hose.

by the way trim=(inducer2\exducer2)*100
