Maybe on a well prepped 1275, but I think it would be a bit too laggy.
Might be better with something a tad smaller.

I have a TD04L sitting next to me now, but it is going on a G13b as they rev a lot higher & can cope with this size turbo better than an A series

Short answer would be too big for anything. Without knowing the trim and A/R ratio for turbine/compressor the number is useless. Is it a T04 off a truck or off a car?

I gave it a quick google, people are using them on old supras, and twin setups on late model RX7s.

I'd say it's too big, for one on ebay it said this....

64 Trim 0.96 A/R


Don't know really what all that means, but if that's what they all are, someone might be able to tell you if it's too big.

What are they worth? I might try it if it is classified as reasonable price?

T3 on metro has a 0.25 A/R on the turbine. Low A/R on turbine means less lag. The centre housing is the same on all T3, it's the turbine and compressor housing/s that determine the power etc.
