good luck finding any info on toyota turbos lol.. ur better off asking ihi
as far as i remember somebody had said that toyota turbos are made by ihi.. but i dunno if thats speculation or actual proof..

Great. I would ask Toyota, but I'd be lucky to find out what size wheels the Starlets came with, let alone turbo details
.EDIT:- "Toyota unfortunately has never published the compressor maps for its turbos."

ihi turbos from the same era are so different from the ct series turbos that i would highly doubt they are made by them. stranger things have happened though!
got this on the ct26 but thats probably no use to you:

I'm not sure, but looking at the figures I can't see why the CT12 gets such a slating for being a pointless upgrade

because there isnt a great deal of difference, from the ct9, if you went for the ct20, then there would be enough of a difference to warrant the ammount of work needed to fit that turbo, just my opinion.

That's the advantage, no farting about adjusting stuff.
Twin Turbo Supra's so I'm led to believe.

sorry lads to burst ur happy bubbles.. but the turbos that come with the twin turbo supra's & on hte soarers ie the 2jz-gte's are ct12b's .. they dont bolt on @ all..
what ur talking about dunc is the ct12a ie from an ep71 with a 2e-telu engine .. which is the same size as the ct9, only has a smaller ass... not much of an upgrade, i would know i tried one lol..

well yes in fact in the old days, (long b4 u lot came along lol) the 1st hybrids we used to use on the forum where as u said above.. but we also used to use the ct12 induction side blades.. as its something around 1.4mm bigger.. but the rear end is not interchangeable.. so u must use a ct9..
u wont see any noticeable increase, even though power would have increased by a bit.. but not really worth the hassle.
the ct12a hybrid i had was one of syawal's kit 1s well lets put it this way, the front had a ct20 intake inside & the rear was stock.. IT WAS CRAP! the amount of back pressure it caused in the head almost caused over heating after a few runs down the qtm.. worse yet is u could feel top end the car was DEAD!

So Kon, the CT12b, would that be a decent upgrade or is it too big?
i know someone who has fitted it here, pretty decent upgrade even though these turbos (like any other toyota turbo) dont really like going over 1.2 bar.
with 12psi it was pretty impressive, well not that impressive but id compare it to a CVH t25 as far as specs go.. its not that laggy either, if i remember he said he got full boost by around 4000rpms
