looking to upgrade to a holset turbo and wonder if anyone has any info on the size and style of the flange that banks used to use with that system, i dont have the time right now to take the turbo off to check it out cause im constintely driving the truck and dont have another vehicle but just by looking at with the turbo still on it looks like a smaller version of a t3 style but i could just be wrong, any info helps

 

Since they used three style turbos over the years ??? Non should be a T4- but it could be a t3 so just look, and they make adapters.

It is not smaller than a t3

 

alright cool thanks and the system i have has the 50 lb metal intake box but if its a t3 good t4 even better

 

is the t3 and t4 mader by garett?

 

No t3 t4 refer to a flange size not a turbo specifically

 

My Banks kit (circa 1987) has a Rotomaster TO4B clone with a six hole outlet flange. I cant find the outlet gaskets any more, so I have to make them from high temp material. Here it is when I tore it down last year for an overhaul. Oddly, it was a gas turbo and had a carbon seal on the compressor side (commonly used only on gas installations). Later TO4Bs are metric and the early ones are standard, so I ran into bolt and nut problems.

 

The 6.9 non gated turbo is a T3 flange. Same as the holset Hx35 with a 12cm housing, at least the one i have is.

 

Sweet even better. its good seeing some idaho boys on here

 

I change those carbonseals to dynamic, they leak a lot less

 

Hehe indeed, not to mention an Idaho boy runnin an HX35

 

yeah once i move back to kuna in june you wont be the only one in the treasure valley with an hx35 idi

 

Kuna huh, you know sycostang?
