it depends. some of the T3's have a smaller rectangle flange. most of the newer saabs use the Air Research (Garrett) T3 turbos, and some of them also used Mitsu TD04's and TD05's

yea Saab uses a lot of the 1752 turbocharges on their 9.3 and 9.5 vehicles. It's rated as one of Garrett's smaller turbochargers, but would still get the job done for up to 15 psi or so on a J-car.

There is probably 100 different years and models that used T3 turbos.

that is exactly what I am running on my car currently.

I love it!

I have tried 5 different turbos on my car and this is by FAR the best turbo I have used. It pulls very hard and builds boost so fast there is no lag. Very responsive I love it.

the 89 I got from Saab is a T3, a 87 sitting in my garage from Saab is a T3. Both airsearch and garrets are the same.

the one i got was bolted to a saab manifold and all. im just wondering if the gasket is wrong. ill know soon enough when i get the manifold. if it doesnt fit then its not right. i was just wondering if anyone knew.
