My turbo project
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi,

Over the past few weeks I've been gathering info together on various turbo set-ups and how to get the best from them.
I've set on the blow-thru setup as there is more potential with this type. Today I found an alternative to the Metro T3. I found a nissan 200 SX Turbo in the scrappy. It had a rear end prang and was written off but all the engine is in good condition, it's all complete, Turbo, Intercooler etc etc. Would the turbo unit from this be a good one for the a series?

I've checked it all and its fine, it is also a blow-thru type so isn't too hard to connect up (I can fabricate my own manifolds :)), and the turbine blades are smaller than the T3 unit but there are more of them. I have myself a ?50 scrapper a series to experiment on which isn't in a car.

Too you guys who know turbos well, does this Turbo sound ok to use? And does any of you know what unit it is on the 200 SX? The only identification is 'GARRET' lol

what year of 200sx?

its the S13 pre 88 i believe it's kinda a squarish car with headlights like the MR2, the scrappy removed the Number Plates
