Re: to4b on stock jdm gsr motor (project dc2)
That sounds like one of the original T4 John Deere applications that are used in some smaller tractors. That compressor and exhaust measurement is about 640-660cfmat 2PR or so. They use a t04b compressor cover, that's about all that it shares with many of the applications that are used universally. T04B compressor sides are used all the time, its that full combination that isn't used at all really. this turbo is about equivilent to about a Mitsubishi 20G or smaller. This is ok for a GS-R for lower boost use, but because of its larger volute for the T4 design, it's really not the best idea, especially when there are plenty of other "ready to use" designs out there, especially in the 1.10A/R.
*EDIT* I re-read his measurements, and adjusted my orginal post accordingly to his measurements.

1. the shape and design of it isnt very A/C friendly
2. not many people have those turbos around for mock up or setups made for that particular turbo.
3. the spacing of it doesnt allow for a decent sized downpipe to be used
4. everyone uses t3t4's here ( the majority)

I mean at 8-10psi or so, but as Project DC2 stated in several areas, this is not a practical solution unless going for BIG power.

You can easily get away with a t3 housing, the stage 5 wheel is as big as a smaller t4 wheel, and you can get some big AR's if you want. You can also get a .78ar divided-housing from ATP if you really want good flow and fast spooling.
The way you'd use a T3 turbine isnt' all that pretty - basicly you'd only use the compressor cover, compressor wheel, and backplate to bolt to a T3 CHRA and turbine. You would be better off selling that one to a V8 guy and getting a t3/t04b or e thats already assembled and balanced.

You need to make sure that the EXHAUST wheel is going to work with your T3 housing. It's not just a universal fit. Find out the measurements of your exhaust wheel to help determine which one you plan to use.
