what modifications would make this turbo fit?

RB20 turbo's are T3, I wouldn't use this turbo personally. Try and look for a T28 ball bearing.

RB20 turbos are T28's with T3 flanges. I use one with no problems

he just baught one lol arrives on Monday, im looking at T04E turbo now seems like a good little turbo for only 6PSI

yep serpo is right, its due in on monday...

i rekon the t04E is a nice turbo from what ive read, for quick spool but i rekon itll run out of breath at about 5,500

from this projects experience ive learn if your on a tite budget always go the t3 flange direction, heaps of supply and support online, but if u can afford to go custom, then the world of turbos is your oyster (however the spelling goes)...

im getting rid of the downpipe i ordered of the internet for a t3/t4 turbo as i dont think itll fit this rb20 turbo...

im assuming these turbo run t3 feed fittings. So since i ordered td04L fittings and lines already ill just have to replace the small fitting to the turbo feed

remember rb20 uses the flanges off a t3, the down pipe SHOULD fit. not 100% sure though, have u thought about mayb a rb25 turbo, haha thats a t3 with t3 flanges

**rnbguy** · 31-05-2007 06:06 PM

rb25 is tooooo big and laggy i wanna keep is small but not too small

ill try this abit then once it works, ill experiment with other setups

your rb20 did it have 5 or 6 bolts? because my downpipe is 5 bolts and i thought rb20 had 6

**Aza** · 31-05-2007 07:03 PM

it is 6 but its still the same flange.... wouldnt be hard to modify it.

and a t3 isnt that lagg, my old t3 use to kicks in around 2500-3000 max. my rb20 turbo kicks in around 2000.

man thats pretty good info, well fingers crossed till it gets here monday

**rnbguy** · 31-05-2007 09:43 PM

for some reason it doesnt look like a t28 to me, but nething would do, as long as it fits what i have
