What 80's cars used which turbos? turbo id chart


Recommended Posts

Searching around on the web for info and thought maybe you guys could help. I thought it would be helpful for pick and pull trips to put together a list of cars and the turbos that came on them, compressor trims and turbine ratios.

 

Maybe you guys already have links to this info, that would be great.

 

81-83 280zx used garrett T3 with .60 a/r compressor and .63 a/r turbine (is that correct?)

 

What about dodge turbo 2.2L lasers and daytonas

Looks like 80's turbo fords may have used the same turbo as 280zx

What other cars used the same T3 as the 280zx?

Saab 900/9000 Turbo's apparently came with T3's, I have no idea on the A/R's. As you pointed out there the Dodge 2.2L Turbo cars came with T3's as well AFAIK.

Supposing you have a bad 280ZX turbocharger and a good "other" T3 with a different compressor housing, will the 280ZX housing bolt on the "other" cartridge? Or would the difference in the other turbo's housing matter?
