Yeah mate. Hopefully they will be finishing off the 'high boost runs' then. Sooooo excited :D

Thanks lith pretty sure ive got all the dramas sorted now so im looking forward to some high boost dyno runs and seeing what the dyno plot looks like

Awesome, look forward to hearing final results - hopefully better luck this time :)

You are not the only one... I think the GTX3071R has the most potential out of the X71/76 and X35 so I am eagerly looking forward to results from someone not shy of using a bit of boost :)

Only pity is it may be held back a little by the internal gate compared to a high mount set up

I agree, its the one I was most looking forward to - however I think the stock manifold(s?) could turn out to be a problem in this particular instance.

is the compressor the only change between the GTX models? eg quite literally nothing other than the compressor + housing has changed?

Yep

Heres the end result guys cleaned the pipes up clamped it all up and connected everything up even sprayed bit of silicone spray around to make my otherwise grubby engine bay look bit more respectful :whistling:

Gunna start cleaning up the engine bay next only thing letting my car down but its getting there now :thumbsup: hahaha

No im not gunna be shy with the boost Simon if my fuel system can cop it and the lil GTX can blow 25psi + efficiently its gunna get all it can handle haha all in the name of science of course :nyaanyaa:

Seems the GTX's response if as good as the older GT though which is bit of a downer but it does make good power the baby of the T3 family

Thanks mate its not really but the silicone spray makes it look the goods haha :thumbsup:

Tomorrow is good hopefully this torrential rain washes some more crap off my car but stays dry enough so i can squeeze on the power a bit tomorrow lol. :worship:

clean engine bay mate

its only one more day wait, wont hurt :P

Just got back, Yeah Mick was keen to see yours!

Pauls had dramas with a sensor which is quite minor and will be a nothing fix when shops open up again but still did 407rwkw early on.

Sorry Jez, RB wins

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • 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.
