Hi Guys,

I have query about the 3076 that I was sent. I am certain that I requested one with the usual 4inch anti surge, 6 fin compressor wheel with the .60 A/R housing, however I was sent the one in the image below.

It has the 7 fin inlet wheel (T04 wheel I think?) and .70 A/R compressor housing with a 4" inlet.

The exhaust housing is spot on and is the usual .82 that most of you guys seem to use.

My question is if I decided to use this turbo how much worse off would the response be compared to the newer style 3076 with the 4" anti surge and 6 fin wheel?

Is anyone running one like this and what sort of power do you make?

Couldn't find any info in other threads regarding how much power people are making with this turbo with this front housing.

Cheers

that will still make very similar power to the other version, there isnt much difference in them power wise

Thanks Titan.

What about response wise is there much difference?

Another thing will this turbo fit ok between the standard manifold and wheel arch / tower. I have the 10mm spacer. Reason I ask is because of the size difference in the A/R compressor housing size and it looks like It might cut it close..

Personally I would return that 7 blade version and get the proper 6 blade version with the 4" ported comp cover...thats what you ordered and thats what you should get...there is some material on here about how the 7 blade versions are inferior...discopotatoe is the guy to speak to...hopefully he'll chime in...

Titan is 100% wrong.

I had one, and it made 240rwkw. Maxed. Mater meth, and it made 250rwkw.

Then I got a real gt3076r, 6 blades, surge slots, etc, made 300rwkw. Attached water meth and made 320rwkw.

All on a 0.63 rear housing. Full boost by 3200rpm in 4th. Made 720nm and held that to the limiter.

Ye the 7-blade one is not the one you want. Bad and nasty performance for what should be the same price for a proper 6-blade.

I actually thought they'd stopped making them in that option given the choices of 3076s out now with various trims etc.

Thanks for the replys guys.

I have contacted them asking to change it to the correct .60 A/R housing. Will have to wait and see what happens.

Dude, you want a whole new turbo with the 6 blades. Not just the cover.

Ask them for the GT3037. Or CHRA 700177-5007

It looks like the one in my avatar.

Yes as Mr Mafia said get the real one which was and still is a HKS spec turbo , only sold through Garrett as well .

The real ones Garrett part number is 700382-10 using cartridge number 700177-7 .

Do it once do it right and think seriously about what he said about the 0.63 A/R turbine housing if lag troubles you at all .

I had that issue in NZ back when I was trying to get a GT3076R for my car, all the local outfits kept telling me either its pretty much the same or that it was actually the one I wanted - I had to order from the states to get what I wanted in the end. There is definitely a pretty noticeable difference between the two, using this version would be regrettable.

Thats what I told him mate. And now he is going to exchange the entire turbo (1 with the proper 6 fin and .60 A/R) so it should all be fine.

Thanks Disco.

I was wanting to still use the .82 housing, my mate has that housing on his 3076 and the lag on that doesn't trouble me at all, so I will stick with that.

And I would have to stick with the Garrett as thats all I can get a replacement for.

What is the difference between the 700382-12 (700382-5012) and 700382-10 (700382-5010) products? Is one 52trim and one 56trim? is there any difference?

Cheers

I don't know what reasoning you have for that, but its not the best recommendation you've made imho - especially after having had both myself. The .82 only loses any noticeable amount of go below 3000rpm, where isn't a place RB25s are "about" anyway. Above there the .82a/r feels nicer, is nicer on the engine (Mafia needed WMI to suppress detonation, I and others have battled boost creep with .63s) and naturally is capable of more power.

I never looked back from upgrading from the .63 to the .82 - though again the OP has obviously also experienced a "real" 56T with .82a/r hotside and knows how nice a setup they are to drive.

I just sent the incorrect turbo back to them and told them I want the real 56T one which had the part number 700382-5012

I also told them to stick with the .82 rear housing. I wanted to keep the .82 housing as it has the potential of more power if I desire it.

    • To be determined, Luke, to be determined. 馃榿 Definitely the car
    • It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair
    • The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It鈥檒l be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol
    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
