I was wondering if a ct26 turbo off of a supra would be a good choice for a 240sx. I have a jgs manifold and havent gotten a flange yet but could get the turbo pretty cheap. Just wondering what size it would compare to and about what rpm it would boost and what power it would be good too. Thanks for all your help.

i checked one out for the first time the other day at the junkyard, looks pretty good. looks very close to a z31 t3 possibly a little larger

I've seen the CT26 push 18 psi everyday on the MR2 which is a 2.0. SO you should be good for 10psi easy and no lag to speak of at all.

There was a member who already did this. Try a quick search through the archive.

I don't think I would push 18psi on that ct26 or even anything past 13psi. My friend has a mk3 supra and at 13psi the turbo didn't last long before he needed to get a rebuild I think it lasted about 2 months. After he got it rebuilt and upgraded the wheel to a t4 it felt like a different turbo and he was boosting 16psi and it has lasted a year.

I bought a t3/t04e so I am not going to try it. My friend just called me one night and said he could get it for maybe free and I was just wondering how it would do. Later man!
