One common theme I noted from the specs of these 3 GTX turbo's is that they run a slightly larger exducer than previous models, but run comparatively more inducer size....i.e. these 3 GTX turbos all have 58 trim comp wheels - up from 56 trim.

3071 model now also has a .6 comp cover - previously .5 comp cover

For some reason when I log into turbobygarrett.com I can't see the GTX series in their catalogue. And the pics hosted on this thread won't open either???

But if Honeywell have stepped up a size on the inducer then it's no wonder they have shifted their maps over to the right and claim they will support higher outputs than the previous GT models.

Was there an update to the turbine specs that they are using, or just the compressor?

This is awesome news, i was just about to buy a new turbo. Thankfully I have been putting it off!

Plus i could not decide whether to get a 3071 or a 3076.... Now I will get get the GTX3071R for sure :D

Note the compressor housing A/R's , 71R 0.60/76R 0.70/82R Port Shrouded 0.70 A/R .

Without seeing pics my guess is 71R T04E 0.60 A/R , 76R T04S 0.70 A/R Port shrouded , 82R T04S 0.70 A/R Port Shrouded .

Garrett do make a 0.70 A/R T04E housing but its a weirdly shaped casting .

AFAIK the GT40 series comp housings have not been used on Garrett's smaller frame BB turbos .

For those who arent sure how to plot compressor maps I have done a quick point to point on the GTX3071R.

This is for a 2.5L motor @ 90% VE

Boost shown on the map is 1.5 Bar

For interests sake I also checked the figures at 101% (to push it to its extreme), 3000rpm became 22lb and 8000 became 54lb.

All in all I would say this is an excellent turbo for the 2.5 >_<

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
