Street, Track, Strip. doesnt seem to matter, I have a friend in a similar situ with these 35r turbos. He has done the same amount in the same time frame. The feedback from the last turbo (which looks remarkably similar to the 35r from the sierra sierra nightmare) is that we are spooling the turbo too hard. Given the selection process i fail to see how. Garret claim the turbo is good for 2/5 litre engines, We're using a 3 litre. We are only using 23/24 lb of boost and the revs are limited at 7500 rpm. Theres something not right with the 36r imo. wether its too much turbo for the cartridge size or something else I have no idea but there is too much evidence both real and anecdotal that it has a definite reliability problem when pushed a bit. I am not going there again.

Now you eat those words Dunc, I went through hell and high water to oblige.

Only 4 in the last couple of years.

They're just a forklift engine. Useless for high performance application.

If garret were giving them away I doubt I would take one. I've had enough of them.

It would be quite difficult to improve 2 seconds a lap on the aero package they were already using. According to those guys the car had enough downforce at superlap that it could actually drive upside down.

Will be changing from a t3 to a t4 twin scroll Mike.

Old man fail! had dinner at the dg with intentions of cruisin over but work has taken its toll. Old man hit the wall then hit the couch and never moved. next time blokes.

I have the catalogue in my hot little hands now and will venture over to elite racing to sit down and have a conflab with dan'el sahn as to wether this product is a viable proposition from a dollar view point. Quality comes at a price it would seem.

What more can you say.

The old man and the chick magnet should be in attendance. The old girl has pissed off for a week so Mrs jack can do the cookin for me.

If i can finish work early enough I will be up to say hello on sunday evil.

If you dont mind the drive Scotty of Scotts rods fame out at ippy does some damn nice work for some really good pricing.

Friend will be back on deck from sema on tuesday and will hopefully have all the relevant guff we need to make the selection we need. That and I'm an old prick. would rather have a paper catalogue than the link you posted that wont open for me anyhoos.

I will have the catalogue in my hand probably tuesday. We will make my next turbo selection from there. I've pretty much made up my mind these borg warner's are where i want to go.

So Smity, do you want a nissan patrol too. Just stand in the car park next week and I'll organise another law suite for ya.

You're in good hands, the leprechaun is a very careful tuner.

Just get genital wharts, They're cheaper and look better than verdes.

FArked if i know either, I remember having ice cream at jindy once so i assumed it was an ice cream shop. they're all the farken same to me.

All gone mud.

Heard that Mark, We take all this stuff out of our cars to save weight then go and put it all back on in the form of roll cages, dry sump kits, surge tanks etc.

Lets do it dave.its still only 3 kay away from the origina badkin.

jindalee.

You carnts want me to drive an extra 3 kay for ti....errr, ice cream. You're all effin drunk.

Thats some sweet looking product mark. What sort of weight saving are you figuring when those puppys find their way on to the car?
