Garrett Gt2560's - Gt2860's?

[Turbz_13]

Hi guys, (question relating to rb26 bolt on turbos)

I was just wondering if there was a difference between the gt2560's(-7,-5,-10) and the gt2860's(-7,-5,-10)? or are they the same turbo/s?

if they are different, which of the 2 are closest to the HKS GTRS's? it would be the gt2860's as they are t28 based??

i just wanted to know as i didnt realise there were a gt2560 range but a mate of mine insists he has a pair of gt2560-5's. i was alway under the imporssion there were only gt2860's as i was looking at a set of gt2860-5 if they were direct bolt on!

thanks for any help

Im pretty sure there was a branding change.

See the Garrett website for the CURRENT part #

-10's are GT-RS

[Equinox]

The GT2560R uses the 60T GT25 turbine and the GT2860R uses the 78T GT28 turbine. Pretty simple.

The HKS GT-RS is the Garrett GT2871R-10.

this is right as i went thru the same confusion when i bought my -10's

here is an email from gcg:

"Going by Garrett's designation system, these are technically GT2871R Turbochargers. The only reason we still stick to calling them "GT2860R -10 Versions" is that there would be too much confusion between these and the SR20DET bolt on GT2871RS."

link for GTR -9s should be http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarre...9R_707160_9.htm

The bollocksed up naming has tripped you up - it mentions the -9s are 330hp in the blurb, but 360hp under "powershift". Pretty sure the 330 is the right number.

Have a look at the turbobygarrett site and note the turbine dimensions where their list changes from GT25xxR to GT28xxR .

Treat the HKS turbos ie GT2510/2530/2535/2540/GTRS as GT28xxR turbos , aside from the 2510 these all use the same NS111 turbine anyway . GTR spec GTSS or GT2859R I think uses the same turbine as GT2510 .

are the -10 direct bolt on?? the look fairly different to the stock turbos and the -7 and -5's

after being defected i have deciuded to use bolt on turbos rather than a single conversion. i was interested in getting a set of gtrs' but the exchange rate is making them very expensive so i was looking into the garrett option!

[Marko R1]

they are direct bolt on, the reason i stuck with them is to also avoid a defect and epa

im doing an rb30 so if u have an rb26 they will be laggy

[Bumblebee]

theyre not that laggy... im running them in my engine.. full boost around 4.5k roughly.. lower in taller gears

and theyre savage lil bastards when they come on.. man do they come on fkn strong

[Marko R1]

i had them on my other gtr & i liked them as well
