Garrett Medium Frame Gtx Turbos

[GTScotT]

Did someone mention earlier that MHI/Trust played with billet machined comp. wheels? Any more info on that?

Basically based off post #58 on page 3.

Not exactly Hard info, but a reliable source.

Keeping in mind the new billet hype is based on different wheel technology. The new Garrett range has full blades, no half blades, and is a much deeper designed wheel than the cast items. It would only make sense that buying a 25g wheel in a different material would not boast necessarily insane results.

What would be interesting though is the 11 blade T67 turbine coupled with a GTX71 compressor custom turbo anyone?

I think we both know the answer... nice one Trozzle

haha just checking...

He seems to spread retardedness over various threads

U can't just cast anything because U have to get it out once casted. Of course this has limitations. Obviously CNC has limitations too but U can definately CNC things that can't be casted.

Some much more useful and promising results, a back to back test using a .82a/r GT3076R and .82 GTX3076R on the same car:

do you think theres goin to be a chance of -5 wheels anytime soon..... it dosent sound like it,,,

Nice results and back to back testing!!!

Really wish they would compare a X3071R to a 3076R, realistically the X3076R is only better on big boost (when loosing at compressor maps)

the difference is that small that you wouldnt notice the difference in response driving two identical cars bar the turbo change.

i would have to agree with disco after looking at their results for the 0.82 housing that for these new wheels to get the max out of them the 1.06 housing needs to be used.

looks completely negligible, the actual power and torque curves are almost on top of each other, it is only noticeable in the boost curve.

15-20hp is nothing to sneeze at, looks like a decent improvement for not much more.

Yup its decent and worth it if you are buying a new turbo, but not mind blowing like some people were saying.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

the difference is negligible i admit... just thought they might have been betterer considering all the hype

[wolverine]

The dyno doesn't tell everything about drivability and rolling response but it hardly looks like a major upgrade at this point.

GTX3071 is the one I want to see. The airflow map of that turbo looks like a real improvement.

Not soon enough for anyone looking to buy now I don't think

Still, even when/if they come out, it will take ages for a proper back to back test to happen so I'd say buy a set of normal ones and enjoy the use of them in the mean time

has anyone found anymore reviews on a gtx besdies the subaru one posted above?

Only at high boost/high revs, lower parts of the map look identical.

The compressor map shows it's better everywhere... Where are the 3076R are only different up the higher boost end!
