Gt3076r

[mspek]

There may be an opportunity for me to acquire a 2nd hand GT3076 R Ball bearing turbo 0.64 Exhaust housing, internally gated, < 5000ks (hardly used), for approximately $900/$1000 (purchased approx 4 months ago for $1750).

The turbo currently uses a t25 flange and is fitted to a worked 2l Hyianda Coupe..

Few questions-

Is this turbo a good option for me? It seems to be a turbo of choice for many of you out there. I am after minimal lag, and fast acceleration up to 5000RPM.

If I can get the turbo for this approximate price what budget should I allow for..

I have a stock r33, done 85,000k running stock 7psi, with a full 3 inch exhaust and hiflow cat - thats it..

My understanding is that I will have to purchase (absolute minimum):

*dump pipe

*Upgrade computer

*Upgrade Fuel lines

If I can get the turbo for $900, do you think a budget of $2k is reasonable, or am i tripping.

T25 flange is the first hurdle. Requires work to adapt to the stock T3 flange on the manifold.

Then there is the issue of exactly what spec the rotating assembly is (CHRA in Garrett-speak).

With these things you need to do homework on them before jumping in.

All the above, plus

Whopping a big turbo on is not going to help you much, you have no supporting mods to use it to its full efficiency.
