Want this question answered?
its a ct26
I believe the 7mge n/a and 7mgte turbo ct26
You can, but it would be difficult due to placement, I would personally throw a CX Racing CT26 Turbo in there, it kicks a hell of a lot more and easily fits to the car. Hope this helps! P.S. The CX turbo runs for around 385, so I would not charge you if you were to need assistance.
There several modifications required to install a ct26 turbo on a 22rte motor. The throttle body, and oil passages are the main parts that will be modified so as to accommodate the turbo oil.Ê
supra stock wastegate is set at 6.5 lbs an easy way to overcome this is to shim the wastegate actuater 10mm further out from the turbo body this will cause the gate to require more pressure before opening doing this on my stock ct26 raised my boost from 6lbs to 11lbs and I hit fuel cut at 12lbs when I really slam the throttle.
You could get turbo for the 5mge and the 6mge (CT26), but expect to pay about 4000 bucks for the turbo, which upgrades the engine to 215BHP. For the money (and HP) it is probably a better idea to buy a 7mgte and do the engine swap, as the 7mgte has 235BHP. Expect to pay about 2200, if you are buying the engine new, plus the cost to get the engine swapped. If you need more information on doing the 5mge to 7mgte swap, there are a million (okay, exaggeration..) discussion boards, and websites that talk about that.
There's a forum for these trucks: http://22rte-trucks.com The 22RTE used a CT20, nothing else used this turbo that I know about. The CT20 is expensive to replace, not a solid performer and a general pain to work with. If you have a working ct20, tips to keep it working: 1) Install a flex pipe in the exhaust system. The stock hard pipes contribute to cracking of the turbo housing, which is one of the most expensive parts. 2) Pull that turbo and have it torn down before there is turbine on housing contact. You can swap in the ct26 (significantly larger) - the supra version with minor modifications, it may or may not require tuning. There are also ct20 to Garrett t3 adapters. A Garrett .42/.48 t3 is a good replacement, inexpensive, easily found and available. You need to adapt oil feed, oil drain, and water cooling lines.
