hay fellas
im thinking of buying a brand new gtx3076 and was wondering if its worth me machining it to fit in the skyline rear exhaust housing. its a op6 .63 rear

[steve200b]

I have one with a garrett 5 bolt rear .82 iwg its very nice to drive every day and awesome on boost

Sorry forgot to add

I'm thinking of internally gated also

Is there more cheaper more effective options to get close to the 300rwkw mark

Hay steve200b

Is your internally gated ?

How much power ?

How much boost and when does it come on

Thanks

the 5 bolt housing is iwg.

so much info on this site its not funny.. doing this is no different to doing a 3071 or 3076.

i had a gtx3076 in 0.82 external gate form and it was a little dissapointing how late the rush came on 98 fuel, even with E85 it was a doughy unless the revs were at 4000rpm onwards where it would react with massive wheelspin ( setup dependent).

I dont know if an OP6 housing would flow as much as a garrett so it might have better response but then choke up top,

you'd be better off with a GT3076 with a Garrett 0.63 or 0.82

I think its going to cook the OP6 rear housing tho. that comp wheel is good to run on external gate with a .82 turbine housing. If you have to use that OP6 rear housing with a GTX core then chose the gtx3071

GTX3071 for the win! Better response and better comp to turbine ratio.

Yep, steer clear of the GTX3076 for low boost/power combos as from what i can see its better suited to someone looking for a GT3582 type result

Mick_o set the bar for the GTX3071 and it seems to be a hell of a street combo!

Apologies that I don't follow these threads too closely - what is the general consensus on the OP6 housing allowing in terms of flow? I would be surprised if it would even allow a GTX3071R to be utilised properly. Is this case one where a GTX3067R might be worth considering?

[GTScotT]

The op6 would likely max out at the 280 mark with a respectable core/response outcome.

stao has used a different turbine to sacrifice some spool but got high 300s from a 2iu on E85
