hi, just lookin for a quick answer to 2 questions.

1> Is the turbo from a saab 9000 turbo to small for B16 (looking to run 10psi max,standard internals)

2>can i take the internal acuator off and use an external one on the manifold.

thanks

 

I currently run this turbo on my b16a ****** fun *** turbo quick spool great mid range power, dies off alittle up top, make sure to weld the flapper shut if converting to external thats what i did. went 13.5 on 3psi

 

A little small for my liking, but it isn't going to be a total buzzkill.


Yes.

 

yeah it is small, but its cheap and effective

 

thanks guys , Bseries what hp did you make with it on the b16 ?, .

 

240-250 wheel
havent been to a dyno yet, but im trappin 115-118 on street tires

 

cool., thats quick, think i will get a saab turbo and save my pennies (cents?) for the wastegate and stuff ,

 

I have a spare saab t3 if you want

 

hi , thanks for the offer but im in the UK and im guessing shipping is expensive.

 

115-118 mph traps with 240-250whp am i missing something? Yeah this turbo will be a good one for a daily driver with like you said great spool and low-mid powerband. Have u made a desicion on fuel mang?

 

got a chipped ecu and looking to use crome. any experiance with it ?

 

i know driving the actual 9-3 is fun, it spools very quick on that car

 

i'm also going to be using a t3 from a ford thunderbird on my jdm gsr i will be putting it on this winter should be fun

 

just got one for £50 ($90?) off ebay. are the t3 oil line kits a standard fit ?,

 

wonder if u should check with someone to see if a b16 will spin the turbine too fast at high rpm's thereby burning a t3?

lol wtf are you talking about?

you aren't going to over spin the turbo as long as the boost is regulated

i think he means that the trap speed seem a little high for that WHP?

depends on the weight of the car really

 

this is true im not sure, i was spinning alot, as i said im also guessing on the WHP, BTW car weighs 2200 with me in it
