Good stuff.... :banana:

the internets he says shes says can drive you crazy...I went to the extent of buying a new turbo for mine cause for the last 4 months I havent been able to drive it.. So I sit here reading stuff to kill time and on paper full boost @ 3600 and 235kw, its not so crash hot..

Got it up and running today drove it around a bit, give it a few clutch kicks and i was having a ball, so much so i couldnt care less about the new turbo atm I just wanna drive..

just bolt it up get it tuned and I bet you will love it..then 1 of 2 things will happen

1.. you will realize it wasnt worth all the headache and expense and give up on it..

2..you will freaking love it, the bug will bite and you will start a list to mod more shit..

Busy training with air for other purposes today .

A std BB type GT30 turbine measures around 59.9 by 54.9mm inducer and exducer .

The cropped ones from memory are 56.4 by 51.6mm (84 TRIM) OR 56.4 by 53.6mm (90 trim) .

Your calls , my preference is for Garrett or HKS GT30 "T3" flanged GT30 turbine housings . The HKS GT Pro S ones need a bit more work to make the dump pipe and if you particularly wanted one of their different A/R ratios its probably worth it .

I'm not sure what size because there isn't a lot of feedback with these GTX compressor wheels .

Heyyyyy?

To clarify, you gibberish speaking bag lady, your talking about your existing setup? Not a 20g result. Yes?

haha..thought that might stir ya... ;)

thats my exsisting setup yes...its lame on paper but its still great fun to drive..

Ok ok u guys have talked me into getting the .82 garrett housing lol!!!! ive spoken to MTQ today and they are gunna let me exchange my sonic housing for the garrett unit tomorrow arvo and they have a dump pipe as well so its gunna cost me another $500 to swap housings and get a new dump pipe.......

So will the little 14psi actuator that i have pictured in here be up to the task or is that somethin else ill need to look into?????

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
