hi guys
i need help!!!
i have a T3/T4 turbo or known as T04E. it has AR .50 on the boost side and AR .63 on exhaust side.
i need to know if this will work on a TD42, i have a mate that said it will work but i just want to make sure before i start or i will look for another turbo?
any help would be great.
cheers

Give it a crack, given that you've already got the turbo. You can't be any worse off compared to N/A, and if it doesn't suit you can always swap it out later on.

it sounds too big/laggy. what are the trim specs?

Give it a go.
I think the GT3540 is around the same size, so IMO it will work

I have the same turbo on my TD42 it will work, it will be a bit laggy.
It will be a major upgrade on a NA TD42.
My pump is maxed out it will make 3 psi boost from 1400 RPM and 18 psi at 2500-2700

hi drifter
i belive that the trim spec is .57
i hope it works as i already have the manifold and turbo.
if it starts to make boost bout 1200 to 1400 rpm i will be happy.
cheers
