well i have been told by a turbo mechcanist (Mike Vine Turbos Carindale - Mike) that the CT26 cannot be replaced by a garret unless you have a exaust manifold change<br><br>"The stud pattern of the CT26/toyota is unique to toyota only all over the world" - Mike<br><br>so people who are saying on thier web sites that the next stage is to upgrade the turbo to a garret are talking about a rather large step<br><br>consequently i asked him about upgrading the existing turbo (hi-flowing) <br><br>he said the CT26 is equivalent to a T04 good for 20-22psi if the state of the turbo and engine is good and the engine has been set up correctly<br><br>he also said that thier are no other replacement parts that are bigger/greater in size than what is already in there<br><br>if any1 out thier can despute this claim please post a msg<br><br>also does any1 kno of an online workshop manual for the MKIII or if any1 could send me a copy <br>(needed rather urgently)<br>msg please if this applys to you

I'm pretty sure that you can just use a spacer when upgrading to a small garret.<br><br><br>However, a manifold upgrade would always be a better idea ;-)
