i believe this is the turbo that you guys get in ur trucks stock.... i bought this turbo from a friend.... i want to know more about it.... boost capabilities.... cfm capability... my wastegate is welded shut... what do i do... its for a 4 cyl engine by the way... ka24de in a 240sx....i only want to run 5 - 7 psi on it.... can someone be kind to give me as much info about the turbo as possible please... and what should i do about the wastegate being welded shut.... external waste gate.... also the fact that this turbo is water cooled and lubricated by oil... would i need oil lines and water lines?.... are any of you interested in trading for a T3 or another turbo.... this turbo seems to be in really good condition.

stock cfm ios about 500-550 depends on who/what you believe.

boost becomes non efficient over 22ish. but it will make however much you want it to make just like any turbo.

to run 5-7psi of boost cut the welds off the wastegate and reinstall the stock actuator. it is an 8psi actuator.

you do not have to hook up the water lines but it does have to have oil feed and return just like any other turbo.

Re: td06 17g

i can go lower than 8 psi right... if i unweld it... would it have a leak if its not done properly... i might as well weld a flange on my manifold and get external wastegate

Re: td06 17g

you can go lower than 8 if you leave the actuator loose. but control will suffer.
