#12609, "What all is needed to do a t3/t4 swap"




          

If you dont mind I really need to do some research about this and figured this would be the best place to start off about it. What all would I need, and would it be smart to use a t3? How would I worry about hooking up the exhaust housing to the downpipe, it is from a 420a eclipse(the turbo) so I would need to get another exhaust housing also right? What wastegate would you recommend? I dont want a loud ass gate opening up going into the atmosphere, im sorry i dont know that much about turbos,lol just please someone throw out some info

You would either need a new manifold with a t-3 flange or an adapter from hahn that would allow you to bolt the t-3 to the stock manifold. You would need to have an 02 housing made since the one from the 420a turbo would end up pointing towards your block. You might be able to have an 02 housing made that would mate up to your downpipe but I'm not sure. As far as the wastegate, as long as it's recirculated back into the downpipe they will all be pretty quiet.

I swear I answer this once a week.

Manifold, intake, some sort of o2 housing area, downpipe, oil lines, water lines, gaskets, oil and water fittings, lower IC pipe, turbo compressor outlet to IC pipes, wastegate, place to mount the wastegate (either o2 or manifold), dump tube or have the dump routed back into the downpipe.

help? Yes. It takes a lot more than a huge turbo to run 11s or 12s though. (trust me, I would know).

It also takes a working tranny, tuning, and a good driver who can launch a car properly. I had the driver and launching thing down, just no working tranny or good tuning emoji (hence my 12.5 at 113)

You have the upgraded fuel pump, rewire and bigger injectors right? I'm guessing you do but since they weren't mentioned before, I'm just making sure. And AGP is good stuff.
