I currently have a precision t67 turbo, and my brother has a t76s. I can get this turbo from him for cheap b/c he is goin bigger with his turbo. Will this turbo fit with my application. One thing that I have noticed is that my exhaust bolts up to the back of my turbo, and some turbo's don't have the bolt up option. If his turbo doesn't have the bolt up option, is there an easy way to make my exhaust hook up?
thanx

Im sure his turbo has a V band outlet, so you would need to change the downpipe flange, no big deal.

Thanks, one other question, his turbo has a t4 flange, and when i searched on my turbo it appeared like i found info sayin it had a t4 and other info sayin it had a t3. Unfortunately I don't know this info b/c I bought the car with the turbo already built, so I don't know some of the specific info.

i believe a t67 has a t4 flange, i have pretty much the same kit as you do but mine was made by ls1 motorsports. and i have had nothing but issues with it, the logger cracked 3 times now. if you are going for big power 600+ i would get rid of that logger, it will cause serious back pressure issues.

ya, unfortunately that is my reoccuring problem, the manifold continues to crack. I was thinking about having a local shop weld me a new one with the correct metal, plus adding some kind of support so the turbo and exhaust aren't putting so much stress on the manifold.

when i took mine in to get fixed, the welder was lafing at it, when he was trying to weld the manifold the welds burned straight threw the piping and the machines heat was as low as it goes. now i just mig it at work myself, going to finish the season and redo the whole system with twin garret t28's and cast manifolds. i suggest you ditch your logger too and all the piping that came for the hot side. last week i was picking up my crossover pipe from the road because the weld broke on it. i am sick of it.

also the reason why the manifold cracks is because the shorter runners from the head expand more then the collector pipe, at least that is what i have been told by my welder.

Is there a less exspensive fix, I really don't wanna sink a bunch more money into my car. Plus I live in AZ, so I can't get rid of my a/c
Plus, what kinda power did you make with your setup?
