Hey, i think youll find a t28 will be way to small for a 4l. You would be best of to sell it an look for a gt3540 or to4 or similar. As for manifolds snort performance do excellent manifolds at good prices.

T28's should go fine for a torquey low boost setup, just dont go over doing the pressures you wanna run with it.

The turbine is too small and will choke...

t28 was designed for a 2L motor.. if u wanna stick with the t28, run a pair of them. otherwise you'll be bitterly disappointed - it will choke.
good luck!

Which would be WAY to small, they also have small inlets.

Dont go trying to turbo your Ghia on the cheap cos the turbo is cheap, it doesnt work...I tried :(

Lol, I beg to differ. I am nearly there and so far I am on the $3K mark with only around another $1000 to spend. But I am thinking of changing to a T04Z Turbo just for some extra grunt!

Ah, Righto! Yea, Little turbos = Piss poor performance! If you can get another one, I would Definately say go the twins! Would certainly go nicely and would be an absolute show stopper!

if u have the money to do somthing diffrent go for it but if u dont go for somthing thats known for working. i just got my to4z(0.84A/R) up and running last week end, works will mabey a little more laggy than a gt3540 with 1.06 but i am happy with it.

and remember smaller maynot be cheaper in the long run!!
