Ok so other then the T3, what turbos will bolt on to a manifold with a T3 flange?

Model numbers or cars available on etc. Would be great if anyone can fill me in on some? I would like to keep my eye out for a turbo at a junkyard which could work for me.

The 1991-1993 Saab 900 Turbo (and 1990 SPG only) was fitted with a Mitsubishi TE05-12B turbo, which has a T3 flange. It's a small turbo, spools quickly. My understanding is that this is basically a TD05. Some Saabers put a 16g wheel on their TE05; I think it's a common mod in the DSM world.
At the highest, stock, power levels, Saab pumped 185hp out of their 2.0L motors with the TE05. They are known to not be as durable as the larger T3s for the same engine, and while they spool quicker, they run out of steam quicker, too.

Volvo turbos use a flange that is modifiable to fit a T3 manifold. There is a raised area that needs to be ground away and it'll drop right on.

Most of the Cummins Holsets will.
