well if you've seen my other posts, the bearings in my twin vein ct26 got some play in them, so i pulled my turbo off and got a rebuild kit. and they had enough play in them that the compressor wheel got into the housing a little, so instead of assuming its good, i was going to upgrade, i've read on the FAQs page that a simple supra turbine would make the top end more agressive (i had my old turbo maxxed out on a manual boost controller and im very familiar with the top end fall off, and i want to fix that). i've also seen 16g conversions, but currently they're all whole turbos. and i dont want to buy a whole turbo for a supra or a single port 3sgte when im only going to use the wheel and housing, and a 16g modded twin vein ct26 is around $600, and i dont have that kind of money being winter time, bills and holiday season. does anyone have any info on just a supra compressor and housing? or really any hybrid compressor and housing? i dont want to go too big because i wont use it to its potential, i've done a **** ton of research on this, and i know you can only go so big on the compressor before a ct26 becomes useless and the exhaust cant handle it. 16g is what im really looking for though.
now please tell me if this next paragraph is pointless based on what im going with my compressor...
now for the restrictive exhaust side, ive done about a days worth of research and cant find a set price on a stupid turbine clip. what i want to do is give someone my turbine still on the shaft (i gotta pull it apart to replace bearings anyways, ill just give them the shaft instead of paying to get mine tore apart), and tell them i want a certain degree clip (depends on the compressor upgrade i do, thinking maybe 5-10*ish for supra, 10-15* for 16g, not sure yet though but i hope im somewhat in the ballpark) for a certain price, then throw it all together and have both sides modded. if all goes as planned ill have a nice allround upgraded bolt on turbo
i know that spool times would be quite a bit different, its not that big of a concern for me, but i have an idea to increase driveability.... right now im running a manual boost controller, and i heard about wastegate creep as it builds up pressure? i was thinking about getting an electronic boost controller, hopefully eliminating that creep once i get it set right ---> increasing spool times, by how much? idfk haha. im a kid, i didnt know half this stuff a week ago, and had never heard of a celica all-trac or st-whatever untill i bought my car off craigslist 2 days after it was posted lol.
but any help would be appriciated. oh, and if it sounds like im on crack.... its your fault, i got all my info for various forums hahaha! thanks in advance!
