hmm i know a t3 will choke at around 5 k rpms, i got one to get my car driveable at least to work and back.
its a real garret water cooled t3 .
Can i swap out the cold side wheel for a bigger one? and a the bigger housing? i have 1 turbo left over from my cheap ebay ones.
?
or should i just use this as the driver and then just get a real t3.t4?
Turning a t3 into a t3/t4?(56k beware)

Re: Turning a t3 into a t3/t4?
actually hec, I think that the t3 may work not too bad on ur ze.
give it a try and tell me what you think. I am thinking of going back to t3 instead of the hybrid one that I have right now. Too much lag for me I think... maybe not for racing though, but we'll see.

Re: Turning a t3 into a t3/t4?
its really small, like ar 43 or something.
i dont have lag with the t3/t4 that much, i can hit boost right away like at 2.5 k rpms full boost by 4.
the t3 i guess well see what happens.

u need better tuning
