Morning gurus,

I bought a skyline 12 months ago and the owner said he changed the turbo, I can't remember whether he said it was a 3071 or 3076. How do I tell the difference? It's internally gated if that helps (although I believe either can be internally gated?). I thinks it says 0.67 a/r on the turbo itself.

Any help would be great. Cheers

there should be a little metal plate with numbers n letters stamped on the core (around where the hoses go in and out of the centre of it).

take a photo of that plate and either take that to a turbo specialist or maybe even someone on here can help you to sus it out based on that. n yes, you'll also need to get the A/R ratio numbers stamped on the housings.

Most "real" GT3076Rs have an anti-surge housing - if it sounds like a jet spooling, its a 56-trim GT3076R with the anti-surge housing. If it doesn't, doesn't mean it's not from the range of "GT3076R" titled things... but it's much more likely to be a GT3071R.

Hmmm not sure, it does scream when spooling but it's my first turbo car so can't really compare.

An original Garrett GT3071R will have 0.50 AR on the compressor housing , the real GT3076Rs have 0.60 AR compressor housings .

A .

Must be a 3076 then because I definitely remember 0.6x a/r on the comp housing

So, say it was a 3076 what is a safe level of boost to run at constantly? I've been told all I need is a stiffer waste gate spring and I can run 21psi, would that be too much for the turbo to handle long term?

I don't see why not, how much boost are you on now? also maybe talk to a tuner before you go raising boost too much

It's tuned for 7, 10 and 14 PSI currently, I won't be changing any boost pressures with out a tune. Just wondering if a 3076 could handle 21PSI day in day out or if it would need to be turned up to 21 sparingly

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?

      You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.

      Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.

      I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon

      TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
