Hey i've got a CT26 turbo that I was going to Hiflow but the the housing is all cracked, what sort of turbo would suit the 7MGTE using the original manifold? The turbo has to have a internal waste gate & has to be a improvement from the CT26. Under $2000 so that rules out Ball Bearing units (dam).

Not sure exactly what turbo might be a direct swap.
But check out some of the import wreckers and u might be able to find a decent brand name turbo with manifold to suit.
Not real sure tho on prices so it might be hit and miss.

TO4's are a popular upgrade for 7M's. You will need an adapter or a whole new exhaust manifold to make it fit; both are available pre-made (check out eBay) or an exhaust shop can fabricate them for you.

Similar, but I doubt a T3 would be an improvement!
