Default Turbo upgrade information needed.

I am looking for infromation on the turbo that is use in the dezod s1 turbo kit.
What brand, size, trims, links to the turbo.
Also turbos will fit the kit as a bolt on replacement.


Thank you.

I have a Dezod S1, although I bought the kit used a few years ago. It is a genuine Garrett, T3/T4E. I can't remember exactly, but I want to say it's a 57 trim. It is a journal bearing turbo without water cooling. I also believe the downpipe is a 5 bolt.

You should be able to confirm some of this in the install manual found here:
Tech Notes

Hope that helps.

Yea, unfortunately they don't say it. Their website does say Tubonetics, but that was a long time ago. From my understanding, Dezod moved away from Turbonetics due to reliability issues at that time. Not sure if they switched back or not, but I trust Garrett over most other manufacturers when it comes to reliability. The T3/T4E is very old school, but it's also a workhorse.

So I found the post from the original owner of my kit (I bought it from the guy he sold it to, lol). It can be found here: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/ppc...t-sale-226257/

Looks like it matched up with my post. Still don't know the turbine or compressor A/R however.

Yea i was upgrading my custom kit. (Cast manifold, t3 45 trim, 2.25 dp)
And got a t3/t4 t04e 63 from a friend. That turbo was way to big and didnt line up to the dezod manifold and downpipe i brought.
So trying to find out which turbo the kit was model after.

Facebook people gave this number t3/t4 c54 57 std0 82. Turbonetics
So seem like a 57 trim.
Got one of those and installed it a few days ago. Just finish up tuning it.
It spools slower then the 45 trim i had, but this one kerps going to redline. So worth the upgrade to me.

Glad it worked out. BTW, I just saw that you are in Texas. I hope you weren't terrible affected by the storm.
