Turbo Slant Setup

Ill chime in on my ultra low buck turbo 6 install. I used a 3.0L Toyota Supra Turbo, CT-26. They are all over the place as people usually ditch them for bigger ones. I got mine for 40 bucks. The wastegate is set to 8-9 psi from the factory. Good enough for me. Another guy runs one and says you dont need a boost referenced fuel pump, just put the biggest needle seat you can in the carb. You can vary the boost by running a bleeder valve inside the cab, you bleed boost pressure out of the wastegate and you can literally run more boost than the wastgate will allow in a closed loop. My manifold is just a 2.5 inch U bend that comes up from the stock exhaust. Take it to a muffler shop and give them the measurements and they can put a T3 flange on one end and the proper 2 bolt exhaust flange on the other. Mine puts the turbo about even with the valve cover and the output is about at the water pump level. I dont think the CT-26 uses a T3 flange, I just made one from the bolt pattern. I run a carb hat and put the blow off valve on the far end of that hat so its past the carb intake, made more sense to me than putting it half way on the boost pipe. The vacuum advance is still referenced off the intake so at boost its gonna be at 0 vacuum but at idle, it still should show big vacuum. a 2.2 might be a little small, but itll spool very fast at low RPM but then will start to really spool past its "island" while blowing off the wastgate. TRy and get a turbo from a 3-4L motor. That SRT-4 might work as its designed for big power and RPM's but they will be more expensive than the old ones. Look at a few of my posts, they may give you a better idea of what Im talking about. 9PSI max boost is still like 70% more power! And run a low numeric rear, like a 2.76-2.93 ( I got one for sale ;-))
