As soon as I get a housing for it, I think I'm gonna try slapping on my T-60-1 from my '00 Trans Am and see how she does.

Unfortunately, until I get bigger injectors I'm not going to be able to have too much fun, but it should provide interesting.. I'll post more details as they happen.

Anyone tried a T-60-1 before? Just curious... ;)

"Slapping it on?"

How are you going to deal with the exhaust flanges being different? Adapt the turbo, or get custom exhaust plumbing?

The former. I'll be adapting it. I've got the resources, I just need to find the time.. ;)

Should be fun, though.

Awesome. Are you going to take the turbine housing from a Subaru turbo and fit the cartridge in?

You'll be among the first to put a non-IHI/Mitsubishi turbo on a BC/BF, I think.
