I getting a new (really low mile) (DSM) TCO5 off my brother's J-spec Cordia engine.
Anyone know the specs on this turbo, I think its the same one that came on the Conqust TSi?
Would this turbo function better that the TEO4 that I'm currently planning to use on the engine?

These are too big?
The Mits. TEO4 Came off a 2.6L I4 Shelby Z
And the Mits. TCO5 came off a 2.0L I4 JDM DSM

i don't know if your TE04 mistu is the same as the garrett T04E but I doubt it ...I was talking about the T04E that many supra uses (not stock)

Your doubting is right. Totally different turbos.

The TE04 should be a good size for less than 10 psi or so. They have that funky 02 housing though, have fun making pipes for that. Do not use the TC05. that thing is tiny.

The TCO5 looks bigger than the O4......

The TC05 I saw came off a Jspec DSM 2.0L Cyclone engine and it was tiny. May be a different turbo. I just know it was like a 12A or something.

actuall took apart the TCO5, its blades are alot bigger than the TEO4, it looks like its more compact. (it is a funky 12 varient)

Now just a quick question.....
If the turbo is capible of 17psi on a 2.0L DSM engine, is it capible of 6-8psi on a KL08 (or at least 6psi).

What I thinking is that the displacements are close (the only differance is I have two more cylinders), the RPM ranges are the same, so it should work.
