what the limit of the housing looking for 500bhp not sure if it flow it
on standard 4x4 manifold

well its open scroll 0.72 a/r so should be big enough id of thought, and a gt30r should flow over 500 hp looking at the map, iirc though you will really want a rwd mani.

That turbo will do the power but you will need a 2wd exhaust manifold, the 4x4 has really had enough around 460

i'd have thought the housing would create a fair amount of turbulance, at that level of flow, personally i'd be on an external setup, or a five bolt setup with the wastegate off a separate part leading into the down pipe further downstream.

i agree external would be best but if on a limited budget it should still work and be much cheaper and simpler.

with an internally gated five bolt setup, you can split the exhaust streams so they can meet up further down the exhaust pipe to flow better.

thank's for the import guy's i got the turbo today not took it of the manifold yet,the housing look's as big as a .63 t34[might be a small bit bigger but a t4 housing is a lot bigger ,you think it still do the power?,i would like the .82 which look as big as the old t4 exhaust housing

so need to change the mani ,if i go for a new housing might have to go external any way not a lot of internal gate gt ,there the nissan t28 housing a 5 bolt which i have on my cortina and this standard looking housing

Mine's on that housing i believe (standard downpipe bolts to it anyway?) and made 520 when it was originally mapped.

it's a standard .63 a/r been machined for the gt30 core so i think its going to be a hard push
to make 500 on that

You can just about squeeze it on a nice spec engine but back pressure is high

yer i think be best to go for the bigger housing as you said the mani be no good

will the 2wd manifold fit in the escort cossy ok

2wd manifold will fit ok and will be easier to make up an oil drain as it is very tight when running a gt30 on a 4wd manifold.
