wondering if anyone can tell me where to find the specs on a garrett t3 turbo
i've already checked the website and they have nothing...what i'm looking for is the type of threads that go into the boost side of the turbo.....the line that goes to the waist-gate what that hole thread size is

Garrett T3 turbo's all have different specs... there are several different kinds and variations of the t3 turbo.... you just want to find the one that best fits the car...
oem t3's off factory built cars have a a/r .42 48 trim... then you have the modified one that are usually higher like the 50 trims and super 60's... it all depends on what you want and your goals for the car...

Compressor housing is usually an 8mm fine thread 1/4" long bolt.
Exhaust housing is usually an 8mm coarse thread "1/4" long bolt.
hope that helps.
They are a 13mm head.
Try screwing the stock header bolt into the compressor housing. It will most likely screw in.
