Default HELP! I'm trying to find out if this T3 will work for my B18C1

I have a friend who bought a T3 and then sold his car. It is a rebuilt one from some place out of Texas. I keep hearing that a T3 won't work well with my B18C1 hybrid. I don't know if I'm getting bad info or what. Here are the specs on the T3:

It came off a '89 Ford 2.3L Merkur
Compressor size is AR .49
Exhaust size is AR .59

Would this be adaquete? Please, I need help here.

Thanks,
Todd

merkur runs a super-60... it will spool quick and make pretty good power but not as much peak hp as a T3/4 hybrid. If its cheap it would be a good start and easy to upgrade later, but consider that you can get a brand new T3/4E for under 500 and just do it right the first time...

Go to this post:

This was a group buy that ended last month... $430 for the turbos plus tax and shipping. Slow_ass_4dr can either hook you up with his supplier for a little higher price right away, or you can tell him you want in on the next group buy; about 30 of us got turbos on the last one and there's already a lot of interest in another buy.
