as am doing turbo conversion soon am having trouble deciding if to go T2 or T3, from what i know for a T2 you only require a specially created manifold which can be bought from mirage and this means not having to cut the bulk head etc out. but ive heard alot of people saying to me that a T3 is easier to do but i dont understand why. can some1 explain this to me? speed is the best rush i have ever had!!!

t3 conversion is more common so parts for the conversion are readily available, hence in some ways its easier.

i think the t2 is only good up to 150bhp so the t3 is better for the more modified cars.no doubt benross will explain why i am wrong.lol |

There is a few people on here running hybrid t2's this year, it will be good to see what power they get this year, also what times they run at avonpark On 15th May, 2009 TurboDave said:

The quickest turbo mini with a radio (total road trim) runs a T2 I believe... On 17th Nov, 2014 Tom Fenton said:

But in all honesty if i did have it i do not know if my mirarge manifolds can flow well enough to take advantage of a hybrid turbo like this as they were designed to fit not flow. |
