ERST T3's


Standard and all 3 stages what size housings they come with? and internals

cheers..Radders

 

Ive got a stage 3, and thats got a cossie compressor in a modified T3 housing, 360 bearing, 7 degree cut back on the blades and a 48 exhaust housing.

Duno if this helps, if not i guess its just tough luck

 

stg1 : STD EXHAUST HOUSING, LARGER COMPRESSOR WHEEL, UPRATED THRUST BEARING (NOT 360 deg) -31 ACTUATOR

stg2 : STD EXHAUST HOUSING, LARGER COMPRESSOR WHEEL, 360 deg THRUST BEARING, -31 ACTUATOR

stg3 : LARGER EXHAUST HOUSING, LARGER COMPRESSOR WHEEL, 360 deg THRUST BEARING, -31 ACTUATOR

according to burtons! stg3 is .48 housing

 

all T3's will come with a .42 A/R housing.. you can put a .48 exhaust housing on any T3

 

I'll ignore the shit thats just been spouted

Stage 1 - Usually one of two configurations. Either a std turbo bit with uprated seals and bearing, or std seal and bearing with a larger compressor - nearly always the former.

Stage 2 - 360 thrust bearing, staggered gap oil seal, and 55 trim compressor wheel with a std rear end.

Stage 3 - as above, but sometimes with a 60 trim wheel and always a 48 rear end

 

unless specified otherwise

 

lo, then it's not a stage 3

 

true but what would ya call it then?

as mine has a .63 rear end, stg3+ or stg 4 or 5?

 

pmsl @ ppl that fink that can judge a turbo on "Stages"

 

y not most turbo manufacturers base them on stages and variations there of

 

u wouldnt call it anything as such. The stg 1-3 are pretty universal, as they work well for most people. There a loads of different combo's of turbo bits, so it's to state the full spec when u are talking about a specific need. A t3 with a 63 back is a a laggy turbo with a small powerband - the smaller back pressure is pretty redundant as the compressor is out of it's efficiency zone.
