who really knows about turbos

[droptopgst]

I know the 18g is bigger than the 16g and all that but what is the T, D, O stand for in the like TDO6 20g?and what is the G at the end stand for. I looked over a bunch of sites and none of them really break it down, they just tell you what ones are bigger or smaller. Also where does the T3/T4 come into all this. Thanx for any info.

The "T" and the other letters come from I believe the type of Metal that is used. I could be wrong though. The T3/T4 is the size of the sides of the turbo. The exhause is a T3 and the intake is T4.

The "G" stands for Gangsta... cause Turbos are PIMP!!!!! Actually, I don't know what the G stands for... Sorry.

But I could be COMPLETELY WRONG????

The "G" means the blades of the compressor wheel alternate high and low. The "b" turbo blades are all the same height. Only Mistubishi uses those letters. The T3/T4 is a Garrett turbo.
