i got my ct26 today. this thing is huge, i had a td05h eclipse turbo that i was going to use but ended up giving it to my friend, then i decided i wanted to turbo it after all and started scrounging parts. the ct26 is such a bigger turbo. i didnt realize how big it was. im excited. the st165 header mounts up to the newer turbo fine... but the header on ebay right now looks so tempting... expecially with the c one CF hood cause i am going to have the vent uncovered at all times so people can see my chit. oh well. i got to go get more parts to finish this biatch.
Its a decent size stocker, but eh, nothin amazing.

i think the ct26 gets a lot of crap because its a stock turbo. its bigger and better then what a lot of the turbo cars came with stock.

lol i know a guy with a fully modded out rx7 and he just upgradded to a T88 turbo. The compressor housing is just shy of 1 foot in diameter... It is the biggest turbo i have seen on a automobile but i have seen much much larger ones on generators.
it prolly needs to be rebuilt... any one know of a good place i can send it off to that wont screw me?
size aside... it is still inefficient after 15 PSI.

haha, come on, lets not get into innefficiency. it is good for what i am looking for. i dont want to boost too much so the ct26 is fine. i just want boost. and it mounts up to the headers that i have and the downpipe i am getting along with the full exhaust that comes with it. so the ct26 stays.
