Turbo swap ED33T
Permalink  

Hi everyone, 

I am swapping / upgrading the turbo on my ED33T. 

Swapping from oem turbo to Nissan  garret GT554RLS. 

Will much modification be needed for it to fit? Or will it bolt straight on? 

Also I am going to upgrade the dump pipe and install an intercooler. 

Any suggestions on what will fit quite easily? 

Front mount or top mount with fan intercooler? 

 

Cheers for any input. 

 

Mick

Cheers Aus-kiwi Looks like a top mount? I've had a chance to look at my FD33T setup and there's no intercooler. So definitely have get one. I'm taking it that I'd have to retro fit all the piping as I go as there's no piping kit for 88 civilians. Air intake for to filter is just behind driver's side wheel.

Fairly tricky without pics !!In most cases the turbine

can be rotated to fit any location.
