Hey guys need to upgrade my hairdryer....oh sorry my stock turbo on my rb25.....lol

Thinking of putting a gt3040r with a 0.63 rear housing so it can be more responsive. Searched it already but no luck.

Its a 600hp dual ball bearing turbo. Want to know how responsive its is and when full boost comes on?

Who ever has this info it would be most appreciated. Basically I want to increase my present 211.8rwkw to about to 260-270rwkw. HOWEVER, response and streetability is my first and foremost goal! Dont want a snail that has great peak power but poor low-mid range.

Any help would be great? I do not wish to hi flow coz its around the same for a new turbo these days.

pfc injectors, pump, z32 etc etc.

all needed anyway

i have the HKS version of the 3040

291rwkw on 18psi with poncams

i have the 1.12 rear housing, so fairly laggy at full boost at 5000rpm

without cams you will still get boost about 4000 rpm-ish with that housing.. cant say for sure,

If you think you need 'em for the 71, your gonna need 'em in spades for the 40.

You are right though!! :)

CAn you elaborate on this GT3071R

What size ex. A/R should i use?

What is it rated at?

Do i need a custom dump? How much?

How much is this turbo cost?

Is anyone running this turbo on a RB25? If yes please state mods and power made.

PS: I will put a pfc in with the upgrade and run about a bar of boost. I will in the future place some bigger injectors and z32 afm (or maybe pfc-jetro)

Thank You In advance!!!

I'd step down to the GT3076R (HKS GT3037 56 trim) or the GT3071 as mentioned. The GT3040R is a mismatch turbo and will be too laggy for your power targets.

I'd go one back again, 250-260rwkw is smack on the peak for the GCG Unit, and it gives insane response with great top end.

For the sake of having 250-260rwkw as opposed to 260-270rwkw (which can be attained by playing with dyno numbes if you need the sheet), i know what i'd choose for the RB25.

try doing some research, you have been handed some info on a good choice.

price will depend on where you get it

custom dump pipe = YES - depends where you get it made

response - go for the 0.64

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
