turbo
i am am putting a 2.1 zvh engine in my rs turbo, but the turbo on the car at the moment is a stage 1, i was just wondering if i could just change the housing to a .48 housing, would i benefit anything from doing this or do i need to get another turbo thanks

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
Hello Mike,
There is no benefit changing to a larger exhaust housing on a stage 1 T3 turbo.
The compressor side is already too small for any modified 1.6 let alone a 2.1.
The stage 2 T3 turbos are standard .36 exhaust housing with a larger compressor.
The stage 3 T3 are 55 or 60 trim compressors and the .48 exhaust housing.
A stage 3 would be a minimum for a 2.1 engine size.
