What are the differences between these turbos, and which cars did they appear on? Pros and cons of each?

ct-26 is from factory 3SGTE....same with CT-20B (3rd gen motors)....ct-27 is an upgraded ct-26 that was developed by ATS racing....

did the older models not also come with CT26's?

The MKIII 7mgte came with single-entry CT26 (commonly known as CT26A)
Almost similar to the one on ST165 (1st gen 3sgte) but gives better top end.
The compressor housing of CT26A is a bit off to fit on ST165.
It must be clocked.

^ thanks for the clarification... I knew you'd know

Anybody ever use te CT12 as an upgrade?

ST185 · 10-13-2005, 07:37 AM

CT12 is smaller than CT26.

tC's aren't turbocharged..... it would be almost a waste to use a CT26 in a boosted tC application. There are many newer turbos that would give you better results. The actual turbocharger may cost more... but in the long run you will probably end up spending about the same amount of $ for a nicer setup. CT26's have too many downfalls to go as far as making custom manifolds, oil lines... etc.

what are the down fallls with the ct26 turbo?

its a good size turbo right?

i dunno much about turbos, but is there a huge difference in technology with the new turbos?

it's limited in PSI and the turbo/exhuast side is restrictive limiting flow. plus using it in other applications would require a special twin entry adapter for exhuast manifold. if you bought another turbo kit, it would most likely come with the proper manifold,IC piping, oil lines, coolant lines, etc.
