great turbos, only difference between this and the garrett GT35/40 1.06 rear is the *slightly* smaller compressor wheel and different A/R on the thing. with a GT40 compressor though, it's not really an issue, they're capable of big airflow!

Yes turbo is for sale. The only difference between this turbo and an aftermarket GT35R (GT3540) is the smaller A/R compressor housing. The wheels are identical and are not smaller.

Please don't post rumours or unvalidated facts as this is what led me to purchasing one of these turbos in the first place .... to find out it is exactly the same wheel sizes. Hence why it's too big for my purposes.

Hi,

It looks like a really nice turbo. Im after something that will bolt on and offer more power.

What kind of applications will it suit?

How laggy will it be on a rb25?

What power output is it capable of?

My car has excedy clutch, blitz ic, full exhaust, pod, power fc and blitz ebc.

So once I upgrade my turbo I will need to get a z32 afm and a fuel pressure reg or better injectors.

Thanks

Mark

If you look up on www.turbofast.com.au you can see that they rate this size turbo and exhaust housing at 700hp.

Fatz(Pete) has one on his RB26, I think he posted it makes full boost in the late 4xxxrpm?

If using it on an RB25 I would strongly recommend cams, AFM, injectors, intercooler etc. It should make an easy 300rwkw+.

Thankyou for your reply :P

I think this turbo could possibly be too big for my needs, Im after something that will make full boost in the late 3xxxrpm's and make mid to high 2xx kw range.

Sorry if I have inconvenienced you at all.

P.S Would you know of something suitable at a similar price???

Thankyou

Mark

just going on what the garrett supplier told me when he measured the wheels. the one he measured was definately smaller than the standard GT40 compressor wheel but not by much. maybe there's different revisions of the ford turbo out there? :P

good turbos

abit laggy however i found mine had a echaust leak that i will finally be fixed theis week will report back if theboost resonse increases

these turbos are making 400rwkw on other cars

pete

Will check to see if the lines are the same diameter and thread, it's just a Garrett GT30 core so it should be similar. Not sure about the dump pipe, there might be a couple of companies offering the dump to suit Ford which may be similar.

Should be more than capable of making 300kw @ all 4 wheels, if there are already people making 400 in rwd mode then 300 @ awd would be a shoe in.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
