Found new source for Garret t-03 turbos

[mytight95]

i have bought a 84 pickup truck it is a toyota hilux, came with a 22r-te engine--------guess what it has on it--- a garret t-03


Just a thought for you homemaid turbo projects. Myself included(if i ever do)

got any idea of what size it is? I'm going to guess its a .48/.60 a/r. You'd probably want something bigger than that if you plan on turboing your mustang.

you know i don't know a whole lot about the sizes i thought the turbos that had the same number were the same sizes otherwise.

kinda turbo dumb, ya know

It should say on each side what the a/r is on the turbo. Is that think pretty fast?

 

[mytight95]

I will have to look tell you in a few minutes, this thing is kinda funny because the shifter is so sloppy, it is hard to drive. i will cure that though but it will slide around a little , the other day before i even bought the thing i was test driving it and pulled out in front of a semi, i was in first gear stomped it and got smoke



i will check the a/r thingy, it is dark so it may be hard to see.

p.s. i have found it to get about 22 mpg so far though

the thing on the turbo says it has .50 compressor trim, and .48 a/r exhaust ratio, and i found a site on the net that listed the hp torque of a stock on 135 hp, 173 lb ft of torque.

kinda funny all that torque in this little bitty thing

my brother talked about those things b4... he said was gonna go look in the junkyards around here for one (of course he never did)

i like it, or course there is no modding this thing. I am gonna drive it as it is as long as it will let me. And now that i have a daily driver, it mean more time to plan and work on my stang without rushing things i want to do to it.

I wish I had a daily driver.. I cant afford another vehicle no matter what the price is right now.

K&N and an homemade intake. = better MPG.

 

[mytight95]

man,

I don't even think i will do anything other than a tune-up(maybe). I am just glad that i got this thing now i can drive anywhere i want to go without worrying about mileage etc., and i can also load up parts for my car if i want to.
