Differences bettween both ct26's?, st165 ct26 and st185 ct26? Options

What is the difference besides the impellier size? And can you let me know specs and actuall sizes etc...

I thought the 7MGTEs were single entry....thats why they wouldnt work w/ the MR2 manifold.

There are 2 kinds of CT-26 turbochargers. The first one came in the ST165(fourth generation All-Trac/GT-Four) Celica(with the 3S-GTE engine) and the MKIII Supra(with the 7M-GTE engine.) This is a single entry turbo. The second type is from the ST185(fourth generation All-Trac/GT-Four) Celica and the MK2 MR2 Turbo(SW20 chassis.) It is a dual entry turbo. The dual entry has a faster and stronger spool. The manifolds from these turbos can not be interchangeable, so if you have a single entry turbo you must use the matching manifold and so on and so forth.

Hehe...something like that. I wasn't sure which way around it was. I'm pretty sure however, the ST165/ST185 alltrac 3SGTEs had the same turbos though.
