Garret doesnt make a T70 so it is likely a T04e.

T70 is either masterpower or ebay junk.

didnt garrett do a proper T70 or T72 or something?
T04e arent a bad turbo, they come in a million different combos though, so just need to get the best wheel sizes to suit the build

ive got it upforsale on ebay, im gunna source a turbo off a BA stahi at independent motorsports highly recomended getting one to achieve more power on less boost then the T04e, also he said not to worry about getting bigger injectors he will just high flow the standard ones? ive never heard of highflowing in jectors before on here? and aslo he said leave the standard fuel reg but also on here i read the can only handle 200kw so i dont know if i should listn to him? ive got a new BA reg i can get my hands on so i might aswell put it in and not listen to him?

Stathi knows what hes talking about man. listen to what he tells you and you will make the power you want.
Standard fuel reg will be fine as long as you get an aftermarket ECU but the BA reg would be better. I was actually going to buy that gt35 hes selling but ended up getting somthing abit bigger.

Yeah I found this thread on another forum: http://www.ausrotary.com/viewtopic.php? ... 51&start=0

I imagine that is what EF ECTIV is referencing too.

Who said t04e are shit? Lol at the end of the day a turbo is only as good as the wheels inside. The t04e frame supports alot of housing and wheel combos so some can be quiet decent.
They are just a bit oldschool, but this means they can be found cheap.
