80046, My New GT28-R Posted by WickedESi, Dec-04-04 08:24 PM
It has a dual ballistic ball bearing cartridge :7,



I was going to clock it tonight but I don't have large enough right angle snap ring pliers, so I made some out of mild steel but they bent radially... That c-clip is monsterous.
Does anyone happen to know what the stock wg actuator on these things are rated at?
Also, does anyone make T2 flanged exhaust manifolds for our car? I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to make my exhaust manifold.

Actually that is a t3 manifold flange. Hahn of star will work.

T25/28's turbine housings use a T2 flange (slightly smaller than a T3 flange).

Okay then i stand corrected....custom manifold required for 420a.

Hey!... It will spool fast though. :P

The GT28 should be using a T25 flange. The GT28RS is used in s15 from the factory. It may look cute but you can easily make 300whp with it. The problem is that since it spools SO fast you will have a very hard time with traction. But still it is a very nice, efficient, responsive turbo. Good buy.

Hell yeah Anthony! Hey, you wouldn't happen to still have your stock manifold would you? I know you might need it if you ever take your turbo off, but I need spare to cut the flange off that goes to the head to save me a lot of time.
You the man, I'll give ya a call when I'm back in Hustville after finals.
