THats the turbo 100% all specs the same and everything... I think the pics might help you too... it says its a ball bearing Turbo... if you can figure out anything from that please let me know

It says it was ran on a GT4 which im taking is a celica ? and those are a 2.0l and it said it made boost by 3800rpm..

IF anyone else reads this Im trying to find out if this turbo is able to make over 400WHP on a Ka24de bored .20 over with a 3angle valve job, ss valves, ss springs, titanium retainers, Crower rods, and wiseco pistons running 9:1 comp. With 38 mm external waste gate...

I bought the turbo in a complete kit all for 700$ still new in boxes. Im just trying to find the amount of Boost i need to run on it..

Thanks

it could easily make 600rwhp on a ka (and many other engines) with the right supporting mods.

you will probably be seeing about 10psi or so at the same rpm he mentioned about the celica

Well Structure240sx Im going to be running wiseco pistons, with crower rods, 3 angle valve job, SS valves, ss springs, Titanium retainers, The head also is going to be ported, The block is bored over .20 and I have metal head gasket. Im probably going to knife the crank. I have a Wablro Fuel pump, and JWT ecu running 50lbs and a z32 maf. Im just wanting to hit 400whp and maybe 450 Unless when i dyno it. It can make more? let me know what you think I just trying to find a Map for that turbo so i can figure out what puts me in the Efficiency of the turbo. I want to run as much boost as i can safely.

I know, someone said 720lbs i think I dont know ill figure it out soon... But I got The jwt just so I can have a ecu that was made to handle boost over just a stock ecu with a piggy, i would rather piggy a ecu made to handle the injecters... and the ecu only cost me like 200$ new hehe Im just worried about this turbo ... It seems like its a good sturdy turbo but i dont know..

I'm not sure if the guy who's selling it (who happens to be in the U.K.- beware scams) rebuilt it but it is, or at one point was an SSAutocrap turbo. If it's *not* rebuilt with the garret internals and ball bearings (doubtful) then it's an unbalanced, poorly-made piece of crap right along with all the other SSA turbos, so stay away from them. They're stupid easy to spot...

Edit: Oh, I see you already have one just like and aren't buying this one...well then good luck but I wouldn't trust the turbo. A 50 trim will get you 400whp with better spool and power below the curve.

I havent bought the Injecters yet... so im going to buy 720s i think its 720CC ones I will probably have to get a Safc or Emanage to handle them..

YEah i bought the turbo from a guy around here... So you think it will not be a good turbo to run with ? cause of the Problems people have with SSauto I think it is from ssauto its a turbo XS turbo i do think.. Well if I shouldnt use it then where can i find a rebuild kit for it so i can rebuild it with Garrett internals..?

I dont want to ruin the over 3k i have droped into my engine but at the same time dont want to just throw away the money i spent on the turbo so a Rebuild kit wouldnt be to bad to buy if it fixes the worries

Looking at the placard, it says it's a T3. Looks like a Super 70 trim. Never heard of this, but they do have a Super 60 version. The difference between the 60 trim T3 and the S60 Trim T3 is that the S60 has a bigger minor diameter. It's actually more of a 65 trim. Based on the relation of the size of the CD to the inducer, the inducer is well small of an actual T70 turbo at about 2.1 inches. A T70's inducer is 2.720 inches.

OK, the only reason im trying to figure this out is cause i want to buy garrett guts to put in it cause I dont want to spend over 4 to 5k on a engine and then have it all go down the trash cause of a ****ty Comp housing Blades flying into the engine. please help me

Also not on the subject but I was thinking about the whole SS valves, springs and titanium retainers... Any oppinions on if its worth it or not... My max goal for this car will be 500WHP ... Thats if i decided to go further but My real goal is 400whp to 450whp ... I was always taught Build it to do 10s 1/4 miles but tune it down to a 11s 1/4 cause it will last longer... I was reading about a guy that hit 400hp in a stock Ka24de... Im just trying to justifie 1400$ for a fully built head .. cause Is it worth putting the money into all that if I cant rev it much higher cause of the crank...

If you're looking at those kind of power levels, you're focus should be first o the major parts. The valvetrain parts you mention are going to have a minor effect on power. You're still going to need to cover the bottom end and have a turbo that can get you to those power levels without overstressing the motor.

Well, C-kwik...

I think the bottom end is going to be well over built with those Wiesco pistons and Crower rods.. Im going to have the crank Knifed. I'm also going to run metal head gasket. I was thinking of doing just SS valves on the Exhaust side but i dont know. What other type of things are you talking about when you say major parts.. Im sorry to just come out and ask but What size turbo is best for this build then. I thought this t3/t4 turbo i have Would be fine for reaching those power goals but if you can help me out a little that would be great.
