Hey guys i just brought my first r32 gts-t i was wondering which turbo would be my best choice. it already has a gt35r on it an its a laggy as f*k it starts to make boost around 4300 an full boost around 4600.car has wolf3d, larger unkown injectors sard fuel reg.custom turbo manifold with external gate etc etc.After around 200-230kw.what would be an ideal turbo that makes boost around 3000? any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Have you driven a car with that much? That turbo is rated for 300+ kws or so... that's a big drop down!

I have a VG30 turbo lieing around (slightly better then an RB25 turbo)... you could highflow it for around 220 - 230kws...

NYTSKY mate i was thinking along the lines of a gt30 when do they start to make boost?a lot of people on here seem to be using hks GT 2530. Mlr mate with the cam gears what sort of rpm do u think this would lower the boost range by? thanks

Not sure mate, I'm looking into this as I'm having the same thing going on with mine, rb25 with gt35, tuner recons it will drop between 250 to 500 rpm.

Not doing this though till next year when its going in for a rebuild so no answer on this for a while from me, sorry.

I'm sure someone on here could give you a definitive answer.

Yeah i will do some searches on that an thanks man.

Unbiased opinion.

GT3076R would be good choice

But if it was me I could not go past the Billet S56-GT3 with .63 A/R hot side.

The S56-GT3 specs are pretty dam good

The S56 compressor wheel has a 56mm inducer and 80mm Major + (ETT).

Turbine has an exducer of 56.6mm and a major of 65mm and is made of 713C Inconel

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
