What Engine Will This Turbo Suit?

[G.I. Jew]

Hi all,

I have managed to get my hands on a TD06 19C turbo with what looks to be a Trust '3 bolt' 8cm exhaust housing.

Can someone in the know please give me some information as to what this turbo would bolt to and/ or was it a particular upgrade to a type of vehicle?

It's a different configuration to what my Subaru would use and a little on the large side for what I use the car for - so will likely have it balanced and then sell it.

Thanks in advance for your assistance - as I know very little about these types of turbos.

Cheers.

Daz.

sweet on a sr or rb20

Thanks for the reply, mate!

Will this configuration be relatively easy to adapt to an SR or RB setup?

if by setup you mean ease of installation;

you'll need an external wastegate, so you'll need to get some kind of spacer to be able to mount one, get a new manifold with a mount for it on OR get a flange for one welded onto your standard manifold. also new oil and maybe a water feed and return made up.

you'll need a new intake pipe, a hot-pipe to the intercooler made up as well as a new dump pipe.

you will also need a decent ECU, injectors and coil packs at the very least to be able to run it properly.

it will pretty much need all the work it would take any other sized turbo to mount but anyone buying it would already know this.

Hey Darren, it's not a bolt on affair due to the flange type of the Trust turbo's, but no different than fitting up a HKS 3037 etc in that it will require a new Ex. gate manifold with a flange to suit the Trust type, as well as obviously the ex. gate itself, dump, lines etc.

They are marginally more difficult to fit as there are not heaps of manifolds that can be bought off the shelf from China to suit, so it takes away a lot of the crowd not willing to spend the cash. Ideally someone would get a custom steam pipe manifold, or one available off the shelf from 6Boost/Powertune etc and the flange can be added at the time of construction.

This manifold is like 300 bucks. Seem to be of great quality since all the manifold they make for our vehicles are on ebay...lol.

will be interesting to see how this gets on.. let us know eventually once the turbo is on a car and how it worked out.

Thanks a million for the replies, fellas!

I don't know the configuration of a Skyline turbo and by the sounds of things, this turbo is the same!

I will proceed in having it tested and balanced and will put it up for sale on here in the next couple of weeks.

Am I right in assuming these sorts of turbos sell used for around $750 - $1000?

Hey Darren, it's not the same as a Skyline Turbo flange. Trust flanges are exclusive to Trust, but it will suit some Nissan 2lt engines, but is not a straight bolt on affair (new manifold requires, as well as auxillaries).

As for price, I've not seena 19c for sale for a while, but that seems quite reasonable.
