Future possibility for CT26 replacement turbos?

[blk92suprat]

Currently the only option offered is to bore out the compressor housing to fit a larger size wheel...but I would like to go further with the CT.(disregarding exhaust clipping)


The next step in upgrading the CT26 is changing the exhaust side (turbine) to a TO4 size wheel to match the compressor. The compressor is also upgraded to TO4 size with a large compressor wheel, or even the 60 series (bigger). The exhaust housing is modified or even replaced all together with a custom high flow housing. Turbonetics offers this type of upgrade. They have a stock style exhaust housing that will mate to a garrett center section and still keep your stock compressor housing as well.

I read about this on the net.
Is this a worthwhile upgrade and is it possible Driftmotion can make it happen?

[IwantMKIII]

Some turbo shops already offer upgraded exhaust housings....its not very common.

[bigaaron]

Sure, we can make one. I was already looking into it but I got sidetracked by the T4 turbo kits we started making. Now those are ironed out, we're going to start on some new additions, a bolt-on 7M turbo being one of them. Call me if you are seriously looking to get something soon, 909-630-8969
Thanks!

^Just Aaron being Aaron! In case you didn't know it, this community really appreciates you for being so flexible and accessible Aaron.

I hope to have you some feedback on my new clutch after the weekend.

I plan on purchasing the 57 trim CT with some fuel goodies as well sometime this spring/summer.

I was researching CT upgrades and came across the exhaust side modifications as well.

What kind of price tag would the full blown CT upgrade have and is it worth it for the money spent?

It would be around $1k, maybe a little less, but it would be a brand new turbo with Garrett internals, 360deg thrust bearing, a new Turbonetics exhaust housing, 3" or 4" intake, 2.5" outlet, water cooled, etc....

Sounds tempting....I'll call when I'm ready to order the turbo, fuel pump, AFPR Kit and some misc items.

At that time we can discuss this turbo in further detail.

Thanks for your help!

Your going to start producing 7M bolt on turbos? Not modified CT26's right?

[bigaaron]

Here's what we will tentatively offer, could be within 30 days:

All brand new 7M bolt-on T04 style turbos.
CT26 flange exhaust housing, bolt on to stock manifold and elbow.
Internal wastegate.
Choice of 6psi or 12psi wastegate actuator with DUAL PORTS!
Polished compressor housing.
Anodized billet backplate.
360deg thrust bearing.
Garrett internals.
57trim, 60-1 or 67mm compressor wheel.
57trim will have 3" inlet and 2" outlet, O trim.
60-1 and 67mm will have 4" inlet and 2.5" outlet, P trim.
Oil cooled.

Possible options (pricing not worked out yet):
Ball Bearing
Water cooled

Tenative pricing (could come down slightly)
57trim $1000
60-1 $1050
67mm $1050

[zoppii]

Any chance something like this would fit on the 1JZ/CT26 Manifold you created?

[SupraMan1987]

What power levels would we be looking at on that? I'd love to have something capable of 5-600RWHP to compete with the BOSS I was considering so far.

[bigaaron]

The 60-1 will do 500whp, the 67mm would be able to do 600whp.

[SupraMan1987]

Thats good pricing. Personal question, would you guys be able to develop me some new intercooler piping to make this work with my HKS IC setup? Having to trash my 1K+ intercooler is one thing holding me back from this.

[bigaaron]

We have piping kits that can easily be installed on your setup!

[jonny87turbo]

Does the price $1050 for the bolt on turbos include the oil line kit in that price or is it extra?

Oil lines would be extra for sure.

[SupraMan1987]

Will it be oil and water cooled or just oil? If so, will you be selling a full bolt on type kit as an upgrade? I love myself some SS lines.

I really like this bolt on T4 setup over the upraded CT. Good thing I brought this thread up before I went ahead and got a CT57 trim.
You can expect an order for the T4 60-1 water/oil cooled, ball bearing, polished compressor side and ceramic coated exhaust side if available.
Is there going to be a 4" intake pipe for this too?

[blk92suprat]

Aaron, what would you say the max efficiency range is for the bolt on T4-style 60-1 turbo?

[turbo87targa]

7m bolt on t4 turbo from DM? I'll be watching this thread INTENTLY.

[bigaaron]

It's in the works, hard to give an eta quite yet...

[turbo87targa]

Come on Aaron, we have mk3's..... We evolved to the second level of patience lol

That just gives me more time I make sure I've got every necessary (and not so necesary) mod to run it it's best :)

[blk92suprat]

I was hoping to pick one up for my birthday today. Any updates Aaron?

[smitty__16]

Any updates, I too maybe interested.

[blk92suprat]

Any new info on the bolt on t4's?

[smitty__16]

Bump

[Cycoclown]

if it wasnt for aaron i would probobly still have a Studless head on the exhaust side... and it would still be on jackstands.

argh i've been waiting on this turbo over a year and said screw and ordered a 57trim a couple months ago :cry:

[SURUKO]

i will love to see some pics of this new turbo setup .....

[bigaaron]

This is still in the works so stay tuned, but as for a solid date I can't say for sure.

any update on this?

[bigaaron]

Unfortunately no, it's kind of on the back burner. I'll see what's going on with it this week.

[IwantMKIII]

^wish it wouldn't be. Its been on the back burner for a couple years now. I remember asking about this when i had my red supra in 07. Been wanting it ever since. Would've much rather put the 600+ i spent on the 57trim through you guys on this turbo you have on the burner. I'm sure others would as well for the price you've been suggesting.

^^^x2
I've been holding off on buying a new turbo for this one.

Keep us updated Aaron.

[IwantMKIII]

^i actually forgot about it till this thread and bought a 57trim about 6months back lol

[carter]

I'm interested, really wanna rebuild the hks, So once you guys come out with it ill get one.
ps. if you need a tester, i'd be perfectly ok with that lol

[blk92suprat]

Updates please.

Im finally ready to get a new turbo before September hits.

[IwantMKIII]

^knowing its history, don't count on it.

[Moy]

Guess you are right..

I ordered a LIPP Boss 2 weeks ago so I'm no longer interested in this. Too bad this one wasn't available a bit sooner.

Either way I love shopping with DM and I wish they werent all the way across the US. from me.

[bigaaron]

It's still on the back burner. :(
When it's done I will surely have some pics to post.

[OfnaRcR4]

I can't wait to see how these go!
