As i was discussing with craig, If you've got work to do on your car and dont really have time to transport your car to a mechanic, or want it done over a weekend, or dont know what the fuuk your doing, let me know the quote and ill beat it by a considerable amount and help you out.

Cubes, i agree with the gt3540 being a '3rd gear' turbo, especially the typhoon spec 1.06 rear and also the .82 rear. Very impressive once on boost tho. I have done a little reasearch on a gcg gt3040 aswell, they are much the same to some extent.

i got a gt 30/40 highmount with a .82 and external gate on my car n they are a awesome turbo, when boost hits it hits HARD!!!

1st 2nd n 3rd gear, they arnt that laggy....

then again thats on a forged engine, i guess it'll be a bit laggy on a standard engine, but if u wanted it more reponsive put a rb25 or .63 exhaust housing on it, thats wat i had on it when it was a stock engine b4 it was blown up on the dyno....

Probably a few other reasons why it's not as laggy but how does a forged engine make the car more responsive than a standard engine?

[heslo]

Lighter internals? Rods/pistons etc?

if that was the case, then 1/2 psi extra boost on a car with STD internals would take care of that.

Peeps generally do a rebuild with forged pistons and aftermarket rods to be able to cope with more HP, RPM & strength.........not for better response.

[heslo]

Oh I agree with you there Pete, just throwing out possible reasons

[ovrtym33]

sorry pete, what im trying 2 say is that a garrett gt 30/40 .82 turbo is not that laggy evn on a standard engine with supporting mods...

[Cubes]

I am not a fan of the 3040 on the twin cam heads they are a bastardised turbo.

As you say boost hits hard that = lag.

I'd prefer a much more linear turbo that comes on earlier so it doesn't feel like it hits so hard due to lag.

So my factory lights have been butchered for compliance when it was done many moons ago. I have 6000k globes here, and spewin that i can't put them in

[Madaz]

I told you that they had been taken out for compliance

[Damo_R34]

but the whole HID kit too? Dam compliance.
