t-67 R ct-26 upgade on ebay

[charman02]

hey guys, what do you guys think about this turbo? Reliability? Durability? I know that the 60-1 upgrades for the ct-26 isn't so reliable already compared to the 57trim. Anyone tried this t-67 R ct-26 upgrade?

This has been brought up before, but I won't ding you for it.

For the quick answer - stay FAR FAR AWAY from that. The little ct26 housing is no where near large enough to handle the volume that wheel puts out. Not to mention the turbine of the ct26 really doesn't have the proper torque to turn such a wheel.....

Im sure the product is nice and machined correctly. Its a real bitch to give feedback after 10 months of FINALLY putting it on your BHG mark 3.

I actually ran this setup for about 5k miles... It makes incredible power at stock/ 12 psi. I made about 325 rwhp on stock engine + MHG at 12 psi.

Got rid of my 7m after 5k miles, went 1j. All i can say is, beating the shit out of this turbo for 5k miles there was minimal shaft play (never over 12psi)... i would say that it would need rebuilt after 15k unless you crank the boost, by the size of the wheel, you could crank this thing up to 22+psi and still make power.

I bought this a while back. They are very good with thier customers. I bought it and the compressor was chipped. I contacted them about 3 months later after i bought the item and i sent them the broken compressor and they sent me another one that was not chipped and looked great. Pretty soon getting this turbo together and mounting it on my 1jz. Ill let yall know the feedback.
PS. also might try to get a little bigger turbine.

I'm new and all. But seems like the 7M doesnt have alot of choice when it comes to just bolt on upgrade turbo.

Plenty of upgrade paths, just cheap MKIII owners...

notice no one's posted over 10k miles on those turbos? Cause that's about how long they last before the extra sideloading from the oversized wheel either breaks the shaft or at the very least prematurely kills the bearings.
