srt4 turbo to 89 T1?

[goreo]

Hi,
We have a stock SRT-4 turbo after my son upgraded his to a AGP setup. Would it be a good update on my 89 T1 Voyager with the Mitsu setup? I realize that the oil and coolant lines would need updating. Thanks..

You would have a hard time fitting the srt-4 turbifold to the 8v head on your voyager.

Hoping that the SRT's Mitsubishi TD04 turbo would mount up to the T1 manifolds, being a Mitsu setup also. Newbie here to this stuff. thanks.

the SRT/PT turbos have an integrated exhaust manifold and turbine housing (cast as 1 single peice). plus the ports on the SRT manifold are squarish....

so you'll have to find or make a custom turbine housing to be able to bolt it onto a TD turbo ex mani.

i don't remember, but aren't the SRT turbo's smaller than the mitsu's we use?

or you could slap a DOHC head on the mini!

Nope, bigger with well matched "today technology" turbine blades. Ours wouldn't touch that one.

plus the turbo on an SRT-4 spins opposite of a typical turbo, plus the whole manifold set up is crazy, but they did it like that for the tight packaging in the PT Cruzurs, its kool but also a pain too cuz if you wanna upgrade yer turbo you gotta buy a header, lol

good luck, but i don't see it being worth the headache

I say you sell that turbo on ebay, and take the added dough to help purchase something bigger for the mini.
