Well, the trubo and the wastegate are not very good, they are hit and miss (mostly miss).nathan259 wrote:Well i took a look on ebay for a turbo but i don't know which one is good.

The best option here is to get a set of hot pipes and then get a decent turbo (t3/t4 garrett) with a good tial 58mm wastegate. Here is a link to the hot pipes:

You need to modify the crossmember to make these fit as they hang to low for the mx3's. Do a search, there is alot of info on boosting a v6.

Re: MX-3 KL-ZE Which turbo will fit in?
lol 58mm wast gate, over shooting it by a bit there big a guy a 38 mm will do you just fine till about 400hp buddy dont spwnd the extra money. if you want to drag the car get a decent zised t3 if not and you want to autocross it get a smaller t3 for quick spool up in the corners.

If you had to ask which turbo will fit "in" your MX-3, You still have alot of research to do. Check out the book "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell.
