hi everyone, i am currently building a cdb engine with wr1 heads, manifold and electrics capable of 500+bhp. the problem is i purchased this turbo

TurboByGarrett.com - Catalog

before thinking it through and now realize that neither the t3 turbine inlet flange will fit my perrin uppipe

eBay Motors: Perrin Subaru WRX / STi Up-Pipe Uppipe UP PSP-EXT-100 (item 120357517197 end time Jan-31-09 12:50:38 PST)

nor the 4-bolt turbine outlet flange will fit my exhaust



to be honest i can't think of a better turbo capable of 600bhp+ and i was wandering if i could get custom made uppipe and down pipe. or even just get the fanges and fit them to my existing pipes?
any help or comment will be appreciated
thanx

 

There are plenty of kits on the market that make this turbo fit, Perrin do one aswell which is suited to LHD vehicles , They used to sell the up & downpipe as a seperate kit.

 

roger clark motorsport do the uppipe,downpipe kit.

 

Looks like you went into a garret turbo charger with your eyes closed. The up and downpipes will probably set you back about £700 and then you need an external wastegate and you will also need some new pipework for your FMIC

I just viewed your scooby as well and it looks like a WRX to me ??? fitting WR1 heads will be a proper nightmare, did you get the wiring loom for the AVCS heads ???


Personally I would sell the turbo on as there would be that much to change on your car and if your doing the work??? I don't have much faith in it as you clearly do not know what you should be doing ????

 

Rotated or Twisted Turbo set up springs straight to mind hence why the fits are not straight forward. Have you spoken to anyone about this kind of set up? You may want to try Mark at Lateral
