Identifying Gt3540r 0.82

[SirRacer]

I really wanted a t66 but have been offered a gt3540r 0.82 at a great price so am going to go with it.

What i want to know is how im going to identify the turbo as from what i know the compressor housing and exh is similar one most of the other similar sized garrett turbos.

Any information would be great. Have done a big search but come up with nothing.

SirRacer,

The standard GT3540 (aka GT35R or GT3540R or GT3582) uses a 61.36mm, 56 trim compressor wheel in a 0.70A/R compressor housing and a 62.32mm, 84 trim exhaust wheel, in either a 0.63, 0.82 or 1.06 A/R exhaust housing.

To identify the turbo, check the code on the Garrett ID tag on the core. If it says “706451-15” it is a GT35.

The exhaust housing A/R is cast into the side of the inlet to the exhaust housing.

Cheers.

My lists for the GT35R or GT3582R as Garrett now call them show the cartridge (CHRA) number as 706451-5 . The complete unit part numbers are 714568 -1 or -2 or -3 depending on which AR ratio turbine housing it has ie 1.06 , .82 or .63 in that order .

So if you order a GT3582R in .82AR ratio turbine housing its part number should be 714568-2 . Confirm that it has a 68mm 84 trim turbine and 82mm 56 trim compressor of the 6/12 blade GT family . The compressor cover should be a .70AR ratio TO4S type .

Cheers A .

cheers, its this part number 714568-2 and the comp cover is the .70

i just wasnt sure where to look as they arent labeled gt3540r on the garrett site anymore.

cheers

awesome turbo ! i have one on my rb30det - makes full boost before 3500 16psi

hey there, my setup will be very very similar to yours but im going to run more boost and some giggle gas for good measure

ill let you know how it goes. wont be put together for a few more months but have most of the parts now.

wind up the boost, come on you know you want to

Hey

I am running a stock bottom end (cast pistons) so 350rwhp is kinda enough for me for now.. with the 3 litre its all you need for the street. I guess i could go up to 22psi and make shitloads more but thats when i can afford it and get sick of the power.

I note in your sig... 350rwhp on 16psi.. any more power and its a waste.

As your not after more would you consider dropping to the GT30r? Or do you think it would pose greater traction problems?

Probably not. It drives pretty good atm. Pretty happy with the way its going. Dont really have a big desire to go for more power at the moment. But that will change when im ready to go to the track.
