T5 turbo on a speed3?

[Adammazda06]

One of the techs in our shop can get his hands on a T4 turbo brand new for free. A friend of his was planning on putting it out his early 90's 10 second eclipse as a down grade, but has decided against it. Im thinking a T5 would'nt be right for our engine, atleast not without upgraded fuel system and forged internals. What does everyone think?

The GT-25 is actually a perfect size for 7 Psi on a 2.0 L

The GT-28RS is very suited for up to 300 WHP.

(Depends on the Boost that you plan to run)

Never heard of a T5 flanged turbocharger, I know of the 7 sec drag Supra's

use a T6 turbo. The problem with the T4 turbo would be the lag ,BTW what

size is it? I am guessing even with a T4/35R, you wouldnt be boosting until

about 4500-4700 rpms and full boost shortly after.

Yeah, I also was thinking boost would'nt come on till 4000-4500 rpms. I don't know about the size other than T4. That was actually a typo in the subject. No T5. The guy who was going to use it for his eclipse has a massive turbo on it right now. He actually runs in the 9's. Along with a 200 shot of, as he calls it "Oh Jesus!" juice.
