how much bigger is the t6 flange than the t4 flange inlet? anybody have an overlay of the 2? thanks guys/girls.

SPOOLINmatt

its bigger but its not oh my god bigger. t6 isnt allowed on our cars for sanctioned events like boti.

you can compare it to the jump from t3 to t4.

Are you considering a T6 for your honduh? I dont know about spoolin but the T6's I have seen are HUGE. I doubt there is even enough exhaust velocity to spool a T6 on little motors like ours unless its some pro-class car.

SPOOLINmatt

like i said, the size jump is comparable to the jump from t3-to t4. I dont know, i know its big but ive just never looked at it and been like, holy ****!

turbo-crx

No, just the 4294 im getting and has a T6 inlet. I guess i can drill new holes in my current T4 flange.

SPOOLINmatt

the t6 flange is larger then the t4, i dont think that will work drilling holes in the T4 flange to mount a T6 on it. Why would you use a t6 anyway, thats not a good idea. but of course not long ago did people balk at putting a gt42 on a honda engine

turbo-crx

you can purchase the 4294 with a t6 inlet, im buying it used from a guy locally.

SPOOLINmatt

im just saying youll have to weld a t6 flange on your manifold.

EARLdaSQUIRREL

why not just buy the t4 housing and use a t4 manifold, seems alot easier

1300-new gt4294
vs
500- for used gt4294

already have a t4 manifold.

Buy a T4 turbine housing and take off the T6 and sell it.... problem solved.

turbo-crx

whats the difference in the t4 housing and the t6 housing besides the flange?

EARLdaSQUIRREL

thats what i said up there^^^^

vr6chris

here is a picture and size difference of a t6 to t4. turbo on the left is a t4 flanged gt4094r with a 1.19ar and the turbo on the right is a t6 flanged borg warner. dont know part number on it. we had this turbo on our shop evo for a while

turbo-crx

ill have to look at the pic when i get home<, i cant see it at work.

turbo-crx

so i just looked at it on my blackberry.....damn thats a big *** BW. It doesnt even look like a 4094r next to that BW unit lol.

turbo-crx

the 4294r im getting has a 4'' exhaust outlet v-band.

vr6chris

yeah, the 4094r in the picture is a 3" v-band discharge and the borg warner is a 5"

turbo-crx

i think the guy im buying the turbo from is confused about the housing. I think it is the large diesel housing it comes with not a t6. because the housing is divided and i believe the t6 housings dont come with divided housings. Its a 1.22 a/r exhaust housing.

dvst8r

I have a GT4294 from a Detroit Series 60. It has a 1.38ar T6 flange.

SPOOLINmatt

yeah but that turbo above is T6 and its divided.

bigger than i remember but still not a good idea for a honda engine that isn't going to make over 1,000hp unless you just want to experiment.

turbo-crx

yea im gona get a t4 housing from atpturbo.com
