And just to set the record straight don't want 300rwkw, but I want my turbo to be capable of it if I ever do want to. I am really only looking at around 270-280, the motor is untouched except for cams.

just some points on the HKS2835proS. This is NOT an all-day-everyday 300rwkw turbo. I think people have read what it "can" make, and taken it as gospel that it is easily achievable. It is only rated at 420ps, even if you factor in your HKS conservative estimate, your still gonna be pushing it for 300rwkw.

Now i know you said you dont want 300rwkw. My results of the full 2835proS kit, with all the support mods were 265rwkw on a totally stock motor, and 281rwkw with poncams. So id say that those are closer to your everyday figures for this turbo, which puts you just where you want to be, but with possibly not the easy potential you want for the future. Its great street turbo.. What are others making with their 2835's consistently?

So if you have cams already, then a jump from 240 to 280+rwkw wouldnt be bad, but just keep in mind that to get an extra 20rwkw to achieve 300, its not going to be a simple boost increase and a tune. With and without cams there is an issue of boost falling off and killing the peak power.

I hear what your sayin' Sly33. And I agree with you that the 2835proS would be a good choice, but also [as you repeat] I would have no head room for any possible future development. One thing that does appeal is that the 2835proS would not be a lag monster, everything owners have told me is that its a responsive powerful choice. The GT30R and the GT3040 - although more powerful - would not be as responsive, they have to have more lag. I have yet to decide....

The real GT3076R is turbo number 700382-12 and cartridge no 700177-5007 .

The Garrett engineers don't recommend the .63 housing on this turbo mainly because the 56 trim compressor makes more airflow than the exhaust housing can let the exhaust gas out of . GT30 .63AR exhaust housings are quite small inside when you look at them .

Before anyone asks HKS made GT30 turbine housings in .61 .73 .87 etc but they also offered the 76mm compressor in 48 and 52 as well as 56 trim . Garrett only markets the GT3076R in 56 comp trim and in the US recommend a MINIMUM of a .82AR exhaust housing . Have a look at the turbobygarrett site under products/turbos GT3076R . Expand the turbine map and note the maximum flow of the three available housings . Maximum flow becomes the restriction if its not enough to be in step with the volume of air the compressor is trying to pump into the inlet side of the engine . Since it wants to choke up the hot side you can't take full advantage of the 56 trim compressors full capacity so its potential is wasted . I've read about good tuners in the States actually getting better response from this turbo and the GT3582R by using the mid or .82AR sized housings after someone tried the .63AR housing . I don't think I'd use a .63 on anything except smaller comp trim versions of the GT3076R/GT3037 or the GT3071R .

No offense intended , cheers A .

a 450hp wont throw you to 300rwkw.

It actually will. It is well known that Garrett under-rate their turbos and that you would only require around 480 engine hp to have 300rwkw. I have seen an R33 put out 300rwkw on a GT28RS

While i dont know the specs of a GT28RS, isnt that like saying i know of a 2835pros making 300 at the wheels, but most of them wont in the majority of cases?

with all the fricken ratings and various housing choices, these ratings mean little to me now!! It does what it does and you'll only know when you try :ninja:

I'd like to see a GT28RS (GT2860RS) make 300 RWKW (400 RWHP) on any engine , sure thats not a typo ?

If your using it as a street car, response over power.

A car with more power in the midrange is faster than a car with less midrange if your only talking ~20rwkw difference.

I have the big hooter 600hp on mine, it wasnt too bad at all. But then you compare that to a GCG hi-flow. My extra ~20-30rwkw wouldnt have made me faster unless we were @ the drag strip.

Daily street driving 250-260rwkw is what you want.

Much more your really pushing the envelopes of traction among other things.

I'll get you a dyno graph with my GT-SS making 600rwkw is you want?

Read sly's post, he has worked hard to get where it is.

Nothing is impossible, but when you have to run boost through the roof on stock motors, whats the point?

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
