Gt30 500 Hp Turbo With A/r .82 Exhaust Housing

[GunMetalR33]

Big carl has the 6 blade GT30 not the 7 blade that you are running Mafia (from your other post about your probs).

Carl: are you still running the rb25 hot side? I have the same turbo (HP in a box) and got 248wrkw. I am about to put the vg30 hot side on so I dont have to run 19psi...

its definately 500hp turbo checked the id tag with whats on gcgs web site. i emailed gcg yesterday about changeing over the a/r .63 internal wastegate for an a/r .82 internal wastegated one and mark larden from gcg confirmed that they can do it for $450 exhange or $600 outright. also that i should pull 290 to 300rwkws but with an extra 500 to 700rpm in lag or spool up! stuff that i say! well at least i know now. think i will leave it as it is. thanks for your input guys.

So are you running the rb25 Exhaust housing mate? That's what I though they came with from HPInABox?

Anyway it seems to me like the 7 blade turbo with the .7 comp housing is no good with the VG30 zaust housing. I am going to go with the vg30 housing with my 6 blader GT30 and see what happens. Unique Auto Sports have been selling these for a couple of years and seem to be getting 250 - 260 rwkw at around 16 psi which I am aiming for considdering I am currently getting 248 rwkw with 19 psi using the rb25 zaust housing

[bigcarl]

rb25 exhaust housing = 281rwkws.

[R31Nismoid]

the 7-blade wheel has never been a good match in them

its anciet.

Although some people around will tell you GT30's done come with a 7-blade wheel... but this is just another post to prove people are slightly mis-informed

[bigcarl]

guess i got the good one.

[R31Nismoid]

yours is 6-blade ye carl?

[GunMetalR33]

rb25 exhaust housing = 281rwkws.

Not for me big fella. 6 blade GT30 like yours and rb25 exhaust housing = 248rwkw. However I have an OEM manifold and no cams etc... + only 19psi

Edit: I am putting on a z32 zaust housing (well its actually a r34DET one which is the same). I am hoping to get 250-260 rwkw with 16-17psi...

yes ive got the six blader. i had 260rwkws original tune with this turbo but i wasnt running cams , just aftermarket manifold. awesome turbo, power comes on very hard at 3800rpm!. i drive on low boost most of the time but even with 14psi ive got almost 250rwkws. i get 10psi by 3000rpm on low and even earlier on high boost! cant wait to hit the strip with my nittos...

Big carl: are you still looking for a new manifold? Are you interested in selling your current one?

I think my smaller power level is due to me having to use 2 spacers on the Exhaust housing to fit the comp cover next to the manifold. These spacers are not exactly the same size and the one closest to the turbo has a smaller inside diameter and acts like a exhaust baffle...

When I get the r34 housing I will get 1 bigger spacer made up that is the right size.

Hey Gun,

how much do UAS sell the VG30/R34 exhaust housings for?

[discopotato03]

Garrett should be selling their new T3 flanged integral wastegate GT30 turbine housings in 2 - 3 months , worth waiting for I reckon . Don't know exact time frame - maybe sooner if imported direct . HKS sell theirs as well for the GT3037 Pro S .

Cheers A .

disco,

i'm actually looking for a VG30/R34 (A/R .63) housing to suit my t3 turbo sitting at home, which will be going on my new car soon.

SSSssshhhhhhhh, quiet about the whole vg30 zuast housing being the same as the r34 housings

UAS and other importers do not know that they are the same, if they find out the price of the r34 housing will go through the roof.

I talked to them about getting the z32 housing before I knew the r34 was the same and they said that they could not get it anymore, too hard to find...
