got some turbo questions
« on: May 18, 2006, 12:47:09 am »
my buddy gave me two turbos (plus other turbo goodies) he wasnt using. they are garret t25s from a 95 eclipse gsx....

can i bolt this turbo to a stock TD exhaust manifold?? the mk2 TDs use garret t3s right? is this too small??? this will go on a NA 1.6 probably run off the wastegate(~10lbs) and i will use a sidemount intercooler that he also gave me...

waddya think?

i don't think it will bolt on to a td manifold, but you could probably make an adapter plate

A T25 is smaller but very usable... I think it's about the same size as the K14/T2's that are OEM on the 1.6 eco and GTD.

But I doubt it will just bolt up, do the t25's have the trapezium bolt pattern? I think Mitsubishi gassers use a different bolt pattern compared to VW diesels.

VW cabby '79
VW T3 1.9TD '91

T2 is smaller than T25, T25 is smaller than T28, T28 is smaller than T3.

nopes. a T2 ore evrithing what begins with T2xxx... from garrett got this manifold bolt pattern



I know there are manifolds wich will fit youre T2 flange, i was thinking a vw vento, maybe someone else can confirm this????

I don't know what a gasser turbo gonna do on a diesel, it will work, but maybe with more lag becouse of the trim, a/r... someone tryid this?

Can you post ore send some pictures from the turbo? specialy from the side of the downpipe?
