What T3 Flange Turbo for 4AGTE

[BlueAE86]

Looking for suggestions on what type of turbo and sizing to run on a 4AGTE using a AE101 GZE engine, AE86 JDM manifole and sandwich adapter place to small port head and a rather compact maniflod with a T3 flange. It would have to be internal turbo as the manifold has no external waste gate adapter.
I have a T03/4 E but this needs an external waste gate.
Any ideas of what will fit from what type of motor/car?

I am wanting to run the standard ZE computer and maybe only piggy back it later down the line

Would like 150 KW and up at the wheels, have all bits other tahn a turbo and would be looking for something second hand off an import or something.



Cheers

How much power do you want to make? I've heard great things about the T3 off an R32 being used for this, low lag, should comfortably make 220+HP at the wheels, a CA18DET T25 supports 200ATW on a GZE. What's your budget? What kind of driving, what kind of HP are you chasing, what managment...etc

the bb skyline turbo is not a bad choice as it spools up quite fast ramp starts at around 2500ish and is good for 200-220hp at around 18 psi with 8:1 comp pistons, would recomend for a daily.
if you choose to get diff turbo there are many t3 flange styles.

If budget permits a GT2530 is a wicked little turbo ! it will provide boost down low and has a flow potential for 220+ rwkw. I have seen over 240 from one of these suckers.

P.S i have a turbonetics T60-1 that came off my 4agte its currently for sale on ebay (currently at $710 ! day left!) It prob too big for your setup but Its internal gate full competition turbo 360 deg thrust bearing/ 37mm internal gate etc. Boosts at 3800 rpm on a 4age but provides major kick in the pants.( I have gone to a GT3540-700hp roller and external gate)

What engines / cars did the GT2530 get fitted too??

[30psi 4agte]

I have seen em on 4ages but it was my mates skyline rb20 that made 238kw on 19 psi

The ca18det t25 will not make 200rwkw on a 4agte, its way too small. The rb20 skyline turbo maxed out on my 4agte in the sprinter at 140rwkw. The pic of the bunch is the rb25 skyline turbo, it should get you to 150rwkw no problem and be around $400.
If you wanted to spend a little more and get reliability, you can buy a s15 turbo brand new for around $1100, this got 170-180rwkw from 20psi.

You got it wrong! Im talking about a GT2530 diff to a t25 from c18 and DEFF good for 240kw on right engine!!

[Ghetto-AW11]

haha yeah, i know, i was refering to an earlier post talking about a t25 from a ca18! would be lucky to make 130rwkw!

[Ghetto-AW11]

Im actually running a gt25/40 400hp on my 4agte now... hoping for some good figures at 22psi, completely rebuilt.

Sorry, if you re-read the post I said RW 'HP'.

Few wrong answers here

firstly the T25/t25g/t28 turbo has a T2 style flange so will not bolt onto a t3 manifold without an adapter

secondly the max boost u can push out of a rb20-rb25 turbo is 14psi after that the cermaic exhaust wheels will shatter

u can also use a vl turbo as they are t3 style as well and same as the skyline ones too


GT2530 is the go for high boost and power

if ur happy to run 14psi then the skyline 20-25 series turbos are very good in terms of response plus they are around 400 ish for used ones

and the 25 series turbos has a bigger exhaust or inlet wheel cant remember which one

but 25 is better than 20 from the skyline mob

What about the VG30DETT turbo better than the RB25 turbo again.

[purple5ive]

yep ur right but remember they are two of them in there so basically 1.5 liter turbo compares to 2 and 2.5 liter turbo

plus i dunno what flange style they are but know they are roughly equalent to a t25 turbo so basically two T25 turbos but they are steel wheeled i think so might be able to run more boost if only using one

cheers

hmm what about the single turbo Vg30 in the cimas etc
