Get it through street to track. He gets them from ATP turbo in the states an I reckon it would be half the price including postage to your door, compared to the gcg link.

The dollar is pretty decent at the moment as well

wow expensive yes!, but then again that is a genuine Garrett housing and EVERYTHING else is aftermarket, they are apparently cast with different materials as well, some high nickel ni-resist material something or rather =S

More or less true yes, but its not worth 900.

Like someone said already itd be worth half that out of the states. Actually let me confirm that...............................

Same genuine item, with a realistic cost (still a lot of money but its swallowable).

I hope that helps.

So this will fit the GTX3076R as well?

different units, different part numbers GCG listing is the dearer version with upgraded wastegate valve.

Still doesn't matter, with the way the dollar is now why wouldn't u buy one overseas hahaha xD

On a different note, +1 on something wrong with set up hahah, blocked/restrictive cat perhaps? you can still make that same power with a 0.63a/r + more, will just run a bit hotter, don't necessarily need a 0.82a/r

So this will fit the GTX3076R as well?

They are interchangeable, only thing that changes in a GTX unit is compressor wheel and surge slotted comp cover

I had the .82 IW garret on mine, then the .63 external now the .82 external.

.82 was a bit laggy, full boost around 4200, .63 full boost by 3500, .82 external at 3800.

all different to drive

Which do you prefer? Do you have a build thread etc? Interesting to hear the differences between the housings :)

I thought gt3076 had a port shrouded compressor inlet as well?

Maybe it was just a pic of the gtx advertised a the gt that I have seen...

You can have it with or without... Mine has the 4in inlet and surge slots, sounds mental too...

yeah id like to know what was preferred most also

No build thread, sadly a bit too muchtime and effort these days. mostly just spam my Facebook with update pics

The .82 internal did its job, but the control of the internal gate is destroyed by external. From that experience if i was to put a large turbo on a car again, IW wouldnt even cross my mind.

the .63 was good, and to be honest it would probably still be on the car if it wasnt for an issue we thought i was having when i put the .63 in there. (turned out not to be the turbo) which was good but id had already bought the .82 to try and solve the issue.

the .82 external isnt very laggy imo, full boost in 4th is around the 3800 mark (19psi) and im pretty happy with that for what it is. overlaying the .63 and the .82 on the dyno the .63 is on about 300-400rpm earlier, but did make a little less in the top end, In saying that 2 mates have the same set up but with a .63 on their neo motor and didnt see the fall in the top end that my 33 did

End of the day car is a daily that sees a bit of track work, so for that effort the .82 is staying on.

the last 2 times we went to do a power run on 19psi turned out to be 40+ degree days. so we never got a proper run. since then ive had a low mount manifold made and installed, and tomorrow ill be going from 3" stainless steel to 4: titanium, so ill try and get some kind of power run in next week

What pressure springs are you guys using in your wastegates, for the earliest response is it best to run as close to the pressure you want

for example, a tial44mm external and want to run say 20psi, what spring pressure would you want ( assuming you have an electronic boost controller)

pretty sure the one in mine is a 12psi spring, so wondering if it would get better response with a 16psi spring in there?

I run 1 bar of spring, then use the mac valve to push boost pressure on to the top of the gate, helping hold it down. Works better with a 5 port mac valve like mine but the 3 port ones can be setup like that too. I can hold any boost now.

looking at my boost curve seems like the spring or the duty cycle was not done right, maybe resulting in a lazy boost curve etc.. looks like its heading for full boost at or before 4000rpm which is whats the norm round here but then take a further 500rpm or more to get from 15 to 18psi, so yeah i think the spring may need changed to a 1 bar spring and the controller adjusted for a more aggressive build up,

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
