its for my b16a1 in mt g2 integra 8psi daily with vafc hack..... thanks guys

 

can anybody help me out

 

try it out...should spool quickly, might constrict a little on the top end, but will be manageable...

 

well isnt it preety big for t3? i canta fford a t3/t4 and i dont wnat to run a saab t3 that is .42 and .48 so i thought this would be great......

 

try it out...what do you have to lose? youll only gain, trust me...

 

They did a project with this exact setup in HCI magazine. They used an 8:1 fmu with an inline fuel pump and a little bit of retard and used the SVO t3 turbo from a thunderbird and a drag manifold. Without an intercooler at 6 psi (using a modified internal wastegate from a volvo) they pulled 214 whp a5 7500 rpm and 152 lb/ft of torque, so I think that combo would work pretty well. Oh yah, and it was with the smaller turbine wheel, the .48 ar. Hope that helps.

 

yea its a good turbo .. its plenty big

 

I plan on using one on my b16...just pulled one off a 5-speed t-bird with 45,000 miles, for $30 bucks

 

Damn, that's a helluva deal! Any more where that came from?

 

Yes that turbo will work great on your B16a. I'm running the same one myself right now. I dont think you would want to go much bigger than a .63 on the exhaust side for a B16a anhow, and the compressor side flows plenty of air for a street car. Good turbo, you'll like it.

 

Any numbers with that turbo..how much are you boosting?

 

the SVO turbo has to differnt types....the automatic transmission turbo and the manual transmission turbo....just thought that you'd like to know

 

Here's an ITR with a 40 Trim T3 at 8psi


And here's an LS with the .48 Exhaust Housing 60Trim T3 for an Auto Thunderbird at some high psi (in the teens)


I know neither of those setups are all that close to what you're planning on running, but at least they show that mid to large T3's do have potential on B series engines

I'm currently running the Ford 60trim mentioned above (that's not my Dyno, though) on my LS, and I'm pretty happy with it. I reach full boost (8psi) by 4000rpm, but it pulls strong all the way, and I'm hitting high 13's with it and a crappy FMU

 

yea i got the manual one...just wondering if it is capable of 300whp...

 

IMHO, if you want to make that much power, I'd just bite the bullet and shell out the cash for a decent T3/T4 setup, because in the end, it is better suited for high power apps.
However, for a street setup the Thunderbird T3's can be lots of fun, and are certainly able to hold their own in low/mid boost applications

 

im not looking to make that power now, maybe sometime in the future, shooting for 250whp @10psi now...I picked the turbo up for 30 bucks so i figured i had nothing to lose.

 

Then slap it on there and have fun!

 

I am getting a t3 with .66 on the exhaust and .48 cold, but i am going to put a .60 on the compressor side, what kind of power do you guys think it will put out?

 

witch would be better for my b16 teh .48 exhaust or teh .63? thansk for all teh help guys

 

just run the turbo for now. Get use to the turbo cars, and if you still not satisfied, upgrade to a t3/t4. You can always upgrade it later on to a t3/t4.
