Do you have your crankcase ventilated? AS 3TGTE's get older, they start to breathe which is characterised by oil smoke on lift off. Make sure your rocker cover outlet is not blocked and open to the inlet air pipe or atmosphere (filter if so).
To fit a CT26 to your manifold, you'd have to have an adapter plate welded to your manifold, and fluid lines modified to accept the new turbo. You could also choose to use an aftermarket manifold like the one above. you'll need to consider an intercooler if you wish to raise the boost, but not necessary for under 10psi boost levels. lag would depend on the type of CT26 you get, everyone will be different, but remember, they are designed for bigger motors, but having said that, the original CT20 isn't going to show much difference!!! Power output with a CT26 would be around 175BHPish, given everything else is stock
