Well im new to boost. I got a killer deal on a TDO4 with no shaft play from a first gen talon. i was just wondering a few things. Is it a 13, 14, or 15, G or B? Is the flange on this the same as a t3, if not, what manifold can i use. I dont have a welder so i cant make one. Should i keep an internal wastegate or go for an external? and lastly for now im gonna turbo my d15 while i mildly build a d16. will this turbo on a mildly built d16 be good for 200 - 250 whp? Thanks in advance. This site is always a big help.

the manifold in the picture is from the talon

 

its a 14b. flange should be different from a t3, it should be a mitsubishi style flange. you can use greddy manifolds. low boost the internal gate should be more than fine, and save you some loot in the process. what are you going to do for fuel management? if you want to use uberdata, let me know i can help.

 

That's actually a 13b since its a TD04. 14b's are TD05s.

beat me to it......... 13g came on the automatic 1g dsm's.

 

well is this a good turbo for my car? I got such a good deal on it that i just bought without really thinking. All the manifolds that i see the flange is facing the other direction, meaning that if i used this turbo the side with the fan blades showing would be facing the front of the car. This seems like it might be a problem. I think i might sell it and get a more comon turbo like a t3, but i dont know. I do know that this turbo is rebuilt with only 3500 miles on it and there is no shaft play and it is for sale. i dont have a resources nor the welding knowledge to be making manifolds like a lot of you guys here, so i have to be able to buy all my parts. If you guys have any ideas on what turbo i should get or want to buy this turbo let me know before i ebay it. Thanks you guys are always a help.
