Hey guys, I have a question about going NA --> Turbo with the NA block, head, intake, etc. If I was to buy a turbo, what else is needed? I know one of the Supra guy's in Vic did this swap, but I can't remember who it was.

Also, I found a Garret T3 Turbo for sale. Here is the description in the ad:

"Garrett T3 turobcharger.
Completely rebuilt and never used.
Original Equipment on Ford 2.3L OHC engine found in late 70's - mid 80's Mustang / Capri.
Turbo designed to fit into into intake manifold, I have manifold and will throw in no cost.
It requires new internal waistgate for O/E operation.

Will Take Fair Offer!"

He's asking $250, is that a fair price, or should it be cheaper/more expensive?

Is that compatible with the Toyota 3.0L I6?

Thanks in advance for the help. When I get home, I'm going to research it more on Supraforums.

Cheers
Shane
