turbo inlet size
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi there, just a quick question, was just wondering what the standard size diameter on the garrett t3 for my engine i just brought should be, got a friend telling me it should be 63 mm but i had a measure up and it works out to be 57mm so im slightly confused, if anyone could shed abit of light on this for me it would be much appreciated, Cheers

Low boosting for now.

Garret T3 is a "generic" statement.

The T3 refers to a "frame" size but the actual compressors/turbines vary a lot across the range.

The T3 on my Cossie has a much bigger set of inlets/outlets than my Metro T3.

Standard Metro T3 is 57mm as you measured.

Schrödinger's cat - so which one am I ???

ahh i see yes, cheers for that, my friend rang me too and realised that his sierra, just a pity really because i could have saved a small fortune on silicone hoses and stuff nevermind, going turbo is never a cheap option. thanks again buddy.

Low boosting for now.

Are you talking about the up pipe where the intercooler hoses go? If so its 51mm.
