OK, i've been wanting a t3 or a t4 turbo on my KA-T . I've got the SSA T25/T28 manifold. I found a SR20DET T25/T28 TURBOADAPTER TO T3/T4 TURBO made by SSA for there t25/t28 manifolds. + i also found a t3/t4 BB tubo off a R32 Skyline GTS-T TYPE-M............now for my Questions.........will this setup work? and how many PSI is the wasegate set at on this T3/T4 turbo? and will this turbo bolt up to the manifold adapter?

That turbo is not a T3/T4 and won't be much better than SR T25's. It's off a late RB20 (so it's ball-bearing) and even though it's a T3 flange, it's pretty damn small and has a tendency to annihilate itself at ~1bar. With a 3" downpipe and exhaust that turbo will probably run around 10-12psi on stock wastegate.

yeah thats a straight t3 turbo. yes it will bolt up with the adapter, but the question is will it fit where that mani with the adapter on it is gonna place it. ????? your guess is as good as mine.

the only issue i see with that is that t3/t4 turbos are big and its gona be a bottom mount so clearence issues might come up and also the ssa manifold may not be strong enuff to support the weight
