ya I understand the hybrid concept (from reading about it just now..lol) but as far as the T's go, i think they are reffering to the hotside and not the compressor housing. someone confirm this pls!

take for example the GT3586HTA, fp only sells it in one form which i believe is the T3, however, u see the guy below was selling a T4hta35, which led me to thinking he was using a bigger hotside on the turbo

ya ... no ?


edit:
According to ATP’s site, a T3 flange is 3.375’’ x 1.75’’ and a T4 is 3.250" x 2.750

Hey just moved into the area (Goldsboro...) Thought I'd introduce myself.

Anyone know of any tracks on or around Raleigh that are not just a 1/4 or 1/8th strip?

Any good performance shops in the area?

welcome to the area and thread man. There is a 1/4 strip down in fayetville, and I believe the closest road course around here is the VIR but I might be wrong. as far as shops, There are a couple of great evo shops within 70 miles (both in fayetville), and they are Spec Ops and Force Fed. I have been dealing with Spec Ops and very happy with them.

ps. btw its a tradition around here that the new guy usualy posts pics of his ride and a list of his mods

Welcome to the area. If you are interested in road racing tracks VIR - Virginia International Raceway is just above Durham right on the VA NC border (www.virclub.com).

What kind of performance shop services are you looking for? Street/track alignment and suspension stuff can be had in Cary at Performance Chassis (919-319-3484) - I used to work there. There are some great shops in Fayetteville if you don't mind the drive.

I'm sure others will chime in with their favorites.
