well i went to the junkyard today and pulled a t03 out of a 87 chrysler newyorker. .45 trim, .42 compressor side and .48 turbine. factory set at 7psi on the 2.2ls. got it for $50 with NO shaft play in any direction.

CONCLUSION:
t03= smaller than ct26 which to everyone here seems too small to even be useful. BUT the fact is that it still pushes air and i am NOT looking to try to get the maximum amount of power out of it and the engine. AND using a paerformance calculator all i need to do for better performance(with this turbo) is get a compressor with 60 or super 60 trim, and even with the 45 trim i will go straight through the center 74% island and at 4500RPM i will just barely cross into the 70%(both at 7psi at 10psi it will go farther into 70%) and with the super 60 i will be just shy of the middle of the sweet spot.....so I will say it now. I will make this turbo work. It won't break any records, it won't be the most powerful, and you all might not agree with it..........BUT there is more than just a ct-26

Go for it man! Thats awesome! Screw all these naysayers here. Do what you want and be different from everyone else out there. Who cares if its not the fastest? Whats better... being just like everyone else and being fast, or doing something totally out of the ordinary (such as piggybacking 2 of those turbos together!) and learning alot by it and getting a good bit of power out of it too??? Id say go buy another one and just go crazy, engineer that beast to work!
