sorry to have another 3076r thread.

before i ordered my 3076r i did some research and i remember someone saying that when ordering the IW option, make sure you get the over 1" size wastegate rear housing.

my rear housing is a .63 IW however the wastegate hole is 1".

drumaddict on here has the same turbo but on a rb20 and first testing shows that it has ridiculous over boosting problems...

AM I CRAZY??? or is there a wastegate hole that is larger than the 1" like i first thought?

i have the option of getting mine ported out with a new flap welded on for a couple hundred bucks... but realistically i'd prefer to get the correct exhaust housing like i was after...

thanks in advance

The M version has the larger flapper from garrett of which is ~$100 more than the std.

They do nothing more than port out the hole and then shove a larger flapper on it. So for a couple hundred get the same done from the local turbo shop. Its really not worth wasting $$ on selling and buying the M version. Get yours modded; its the same thing.

Then... Ensure you run a bell mouth dump; don't go with a split unless the setup/inlet flange section is the same as the HKS split dump.

If you want a pic of the HKS dump I have a pic I saved from a kind person who posted pics of the HKSGT3037ProS :)

ooh yes please post the pic up

i'm hoping that i can get it exchanged and only pay the extra $100 rather than get mine modified - as this was what i requested initially (specifically larger than 1", i just didn't state that is was the 'm' version...)

*waits for pic... :)

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
