Garrett Turbo question

**manhertm** · 03-27-2008 12:39 PM

Are the turbos made by Garrett for specific engines or are just for general application. I have a friend who is thinking about selling his GT28r from his Nissan but didnt know if the fitment would be different.

you would have to get a manifold with a T25 flange, and perhaps do some custom fab work because the turbo will sit diff. Its not a bolt on.

So are Garrett turbos made for specific applications or am I just looking new manifold and flange? I'm confused.

You need everything that would come in a gt28r kit.

So its not the turbo ,but the accessories that make it fit our engine. Right?

most garrett turbos come in a couple of standard applications (different flanges) depending on the turbo. to make them hook up to your cars you will need an exhaust manifold for sure (many wont fit in the stock location regardless....hence the ATP housings for garrett turbos) as well as some exhaust modification. garretts can for the most part be clocked to adjust outlet locations as well...to a certain degree.

to answer your q, they are pretty standard across the board...

Ahhh, that basically answered my question , his flange is different.
