Default the junkyard turbo thing again!!

ok i plan to use either a 300zx turbo 5.5 psi or the probe turbo.
i need some help from you guys to help me choose the turbo.
1st its goin to be WITH the a/c so ill need something compact. also i need it to be easy to mount.

by the looks of it i might be able to get away without the adapter if i use the probe turbo plus more boost..but no intercooler and i dont wanna blow the motor.

but on the other hand ill definitley need an adapter using the zx turbo. and ill feel safer wit less boost.

so which one should i choose.??

i would go zx since its basically a t3 but i heard the probe one reaches boost fast but seems very small to me (i used to have one but never instaled)

Since you mentioned the 300z turbo, maybe you would know which gen 300z this one came from. I never got around to figuring it out. I might slap this thing on a dx engine or something.








Sorry for the crappy quality, I used my web cam for these. The turbo says its A/R 48 and the type is a Garret M24.

Dont mean to mess up the thread, but since the turbo guys will be looking at this :
Has anyone ever used a mr2 turbocharger? (ct26), it also came on the mk3 supras.
My friend has one, along with a mr2 intercooler i could get fairly cheap.

I know a guy that tried a CT26 on his 4th gen prelude, the 2.2 couldn't even spool it past like 3 psi.
