Quote from: hotstepper1973the turbo is a garrett gt35/40 and was supplied by auto sports engineering in aus.

You sure, that Manifold looks like a T3 footprint? Looks like a GT35R

But hey might be my Imagination its always hard to tell these Things of Pics.

Garrett GT3582\'s all have T3 turbine inlets off the shelf I tihnk, with a 4 bolt outlet. I bet if you check all the FD\'s in the UK with a GT35/40 or GT35R or whatver u want to call them they are all T3 style turbine housings. People are building them up with T4 turbines, bigger wheels, bigger exits and v-bands latterly though e.g. A-Spec...

Ok, So the T4 Hot side is a Mod thats done to a GT3540/Gt35R, you live and Learn.

well chris after 20b boy and your comments i have know idea about inlet sizes as still new to all this turbo jargon i think clarkson said it best in his description of turbo workings it performs witchcraft if you know what i mean hehe.

But if i am learning i would say having a t3 inlet rather than a t4 the t3 would not make as much power as the t4 but would spool up quicker which is what i want correct me if i am wrong.
