Hey guys, 

Currently running a Gen 2 3582r .82 on my 33 GTR  

on e85 with all supporting mods. Making around 400awkw but it’s basically dog shit under 4800rpm. 
 

Considering I’m looking at 400awkw Max would a Gen 2 3076 with a 1.06 be more suitable or would it be as laggy and better to go to a 0.82 as well. 
 

Cheers

Yeah open scroll. It seems to be on par with when similar setups are making the power. 
it makes 20 psi at 4800 for reference. 
full 3.5”, standard head, even if it had type b’s thst would only shift the power band in the wrong direction for me. 
 

I am beginning to think the Gen 2 3076 would of been on the money for 400kw and under

Convert to twin scroll, also I would go GTX3576R Gen 2 over the GTX3076R Gen 2.

FWIW I was running a GTX3576R Gen 2, twin scroll albeit with a 1.01 rear housing and it was all in by 4300rpm~4400rpm with a smaller 2.5L motor at 2bar of boost (29psi).

GT3582 vs GTX3582 Gen 1 and 2 would be very different in response, considering they flow much more air.

A GT3582R is rated to about 600hp, a GTX3582R Gen 1 to about 750hp and Gen 2 at 850hp. I know the numbers Garrett advertise are a bit over the top, but you get the general theme.

A GTX3071 Gen 2 would hypothetically flow as much as a GT3582 to put things into perspective.

      The alloy coolant reservoir has a sight glass, so as long as I can see coolant in the sight glass it's GTG, as for PS, it isn't anything catastrophic if it gets low, and as it hasn't lost a drop since I have owned the car I cannot see it being an issue, even after putting the "big block" 2.5 in....LOL The only time it gets slightly messy is at oil changes, as the oil filter sits above the frame, and I need to use a plastic bottle with its bottom cut off to catch the flow when loosening the filter

      Good on you for taking on the job, but it is a big one. Even if you have bolt on manifold and turbo, you will need: Post throttle pressure source to boost controller to wastegate (and FPR, and ECU/MAP sensor) Pre throttle pressure source to top of BOV(s) Oil feed - you can take that from the standard port in the middle of the block Oil return to block under the turbo - this is much trickier than it seems to route a decent/wide pipe past the manifold. You really can't use rubber hose because it is way too hot there, and also the oil out of the turbo core is a bit frothy so it needs to have a decent diameter Water feed - you can take that from the standard port in the rear of the block. Water return - mine runs to a T into the heater box return, just make sure you don't create a high point making bleeding hard. All of those lines should use 200 series style teflon braided hose with heat shielding because everything needs to be routed past the manifold. Also a turbo beanie is a really good idea to minimise the chance of the car catching fire (under bonnet lining in particular) You also need to decide a cam cover breathing solution as well, will you vent externally via a catch can (probably illegal) or return to the intake (plumbing required and can oil up everything over time) Keep in mind the intake and exhaust piping in the engine bay will be custom so you either need to be able to fab ally and steel or have someone you can get a car that isn't running to. Get the wideband fitting welded into the dump pipe at the same time. Also, just my opinion, a screamer pipe attracts attention and doesn't add power, I'd plumb it back if you want to be allowed to keep the car on the road. BTW do you know anything about how healthy the motor is, and what power you are targeting? Doubling or tripling the factory power on an unknown motor is a little risky. Also fuel system will need some attention (pumps, high current hanger, direct power and earth feed, injectors etc)
