Duhhhh stupid turbo questions Posted by DietrichOS [Email] ![]() ![]() |
I have a 1990 Turbo Vert with the Automatic. I believe I have the Garret T3 turbo in this car. Am I right, and if so is this turbo oil cooled? I check the oil regularly but it doesn't seem to burn any.
Also, I know in the later C900 SPGs they switched to a Mitsubishi Turbo. Was this the TD-04 or the TE-05? Or another one? I thought it was the TD-04 but I seem to be getting conflicting information from the internet (Wikipedia) on this. Big Surprise, eh?
As a side note, I had a Saab 9000 with what I believe was a Mitsu TD-04 turbo, and I loved the way that car pulled. Is it reasonable to swap a TD-04 into my convertible? Would that toast the automatic tranny?
As always thanks for any info. I signed up to be a Saabnet member because I felt it just wasn't right for me to not pay for what I have gotten out of this site over the years.
