As has been mentioned there are supposed to be a few new offerings on the way from Garrett .

The GTX2971R sounds interesting but the few details available only say the turbine is smaller than GT30 and larger than GT28 . Someone mentioned this turbine being smaller but slightly higher flowing than the GT30 so if its true then it must have less hub and more blade area .

Also there is vague info about a couple of GTW , W for wide I think turbos is plain and ball bearing but there numbers must be using a different system to the usual turbine size plus compressor OD ie GT30 76mm R .

The pics show 9 bladed billet compressors in either T04E or what looks like port shrouded T04S compressor housings .

The turbine housings look like being V Band outlet and inlet in some cases and in a few closer spaced AR ratios .

If people find our more can they post here for all to see .

Cheers A .

Hi Disco potato03,

Sorry to thread jump but i was hoping you could help me out a bit with T04B compressor housing A/Rs.

According to the Garrett site compressor housing A/R has not much affect, not like the hot end of course.

i have some gtx2860r chra's with -5 (0.64A/R) hot ends but need the T04B cold end.

was thinking of using some old GTss housings and re-profiling them to suit the 45.7mm/60mm gtx compressor as the GTss inducer is only 44.46mm and there should be enough meat left to profile it. just wondering on the 0.42 A/R and the outcome on boost rate and ceiling.

Also i have some old gt2510 T04B covers which would have to be sleeved, tig'd either end and profiled as the inducer is 47.7mm / Ex 60.1mm but the housing is 0.60 A/R.

The gtss option is simple but gt2510 a bit more work but can easily be done.

I always read your threads and posts as you really seem to know what you are talking about.

Appreciate your time and thoughts on this.

Many thanks and back to your topic

With a bit of stuffing around a good turbo workshop should be able to make a pair of effectively 2530s (current terminology GT2860R 63T) using the "2510s" comp wheels , from memory "2510s" were just 2530s with smaller turbines .

Gotta run cheers A .

Sorry Discopotato03 you must have misunderstood me.

Put simply 2 identical turbos, the only difference the compressor housings (T04B type) one 0.6AR the other 0.42AR .

Just wondering about pressure rise rate, heat and capacity.

Cheers

Found a lot of good unbiased info on the Turbo Forums, good site. the following one about my particular question.

http://www.theturboforums.com/threads/287017-Compressor-Housing-Size-Effects-on-Surge-Spool-Up

Think i will stick with 0.6 AR and if there is surge (doubtful) then i will re-machine the profiles on my lathe with some 0.42 SS hsgs.

Sorry for the thread hijack.

A few details are now creeping out .

The GTX2971R looks like having the larger or 90 trim version of the cropped GT30 turbine which we know is a flop in GT28 turbine housings . Garrett has been said to have cast new turbine housings that better suit this and the normal 60mm 84T GT30 turbine and I think they are the new V band and twin scroll T3 flanged ones .

Also there is info on the new GTW BB and bush bearing GTW units at ATP Turbos site .

Cheers A .

The $64 question is will they still do T3 flanged IW turbine housings because that's what suits most modest roadies . I couldn't give a rats about V band mounts etc , if it ain't got a workable IW option shove it where the sun doesn't shine .

BW doesn't limit their units to external gates .

The smallest GTW unit could be interesting particularly if it gets the usual GT30 turbine somewhere down the track . From memory it has a 9 bladed 76mm compressor in a modest trim size .

A .

I found a GTX parts list and these details were included .

GTX2967R with 56.6mm 84T turbine

GTX2971R with 56.6mm 84T turbine

GTX2971R with 56.6mm 90T turbine

GTX2976R with 56.6mm 90T turbine .

If you had a HKS GT2835 Pro turbine housing the first two could probably bolt to an RB exhaust manifold .

A .

Maybe, but you'll have stuff all chance of finding a Pro S housing these days I would have thought, and then the issue with the unique dump flange.

Kando sells a housing for the cropped turbine. Might be a better option with external gate off housing.

Seems to be very limited options for internal gate these days (except Hypergear options).

Edited by M@&k

^^ This then poses the question of why not have Stao supply a complete turbocharger spec that has been trialled and proven?

I have no preference/suggestion one way or the other, but reckon for a Garrett devotee an external gate setup on Mark's unit would have been a half decent option even if it no longer resembles a stocker.

Looking closer all that's of any interest in the GTW turbos is the smallest one with the 76mm 58T 9 bladed compressor in the T04E compressor housing . If it found its way onto a GT30 turbine in the GT25 sized BB cartridge (GT2554R-GT3582R family) it may have its uses .

I think the GT29xxR series is a case of why bother without an IW turbine housing .

Agreed. On the add on ATP site it says: "The GTX29R series adds more high flowing internally gated configurations"

Might be interesting to see.

I think Garrett turbos are dead this is their attempt to shut PTE out of the market with cheaper turbos. Only gotta look at their sizing to realize who they are having a crack at!

Kinda sad that a company like Garrett are now literally giving up and attempting to undercut PTE & BW becoming "the poor mans turbo" so to speak :(

Lift ya game garrett and do some f**king homework instead of delivering these "budget turbos"

Thing is with these housing options it still requires other bits to bolt on which still doesn't make them a "cheap" alternative really ;)

Yep, I learnt that lesson the hard way with the GTX3067. After having the dump remade to fit the different turbine housing didn't achieve results any better (arguably worse) than bolt on offerings from Hypergear.

I tell myself I have something a little different at least :)

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
