Brentt, i have replied to your PM.

I have the same goals for my build and had chosen to Garrett GT3076R-IW (GT30R) 0.83A/R. With my engine specs i expect to get about 300-330rwkw@20psi, with the response equivalent to that of a std hi-flow on a std rb25 engine.

Not sure if this will be too tail happy, till the car is running, but the other option would be a GT35R.

im currently building an RB26 race spec motor. Its my daily driver but will also be my circuit car.

Im currently leaning towards a GT35R in the .86 rear trim for the best compromise between response and power.

I ran a GT35R with a 1.06AR on my rx7 race car and the response was phenomenal and the power was substantial.. (400hp @ 16psi) not to mention the torque.

Being a smaller motor i think the .86 or .82 whatever the option was might be the better pick.

300rwkw is easily achievable with this turbo without having to run too much boost

I had a chance to drive 3 cars with RB30DETT. Their turbo are twin TD06, T04Z and twin T517Z.

The T04z was laggy and wouldn't' be appropriate for the track.

Try T518Z or T517Z with 10cm housing

My pick would be a 60-1 comp with a small stge3 t3 turbine with an .82 a/r rear. Use a decent merge style small runner exhaust manifold with something like 260 tomei cams and spend some time setting them up. This can make an easy 400rwhp with response. You can even try a single throttle body style inlet manifold.

Something around the Trust TD07 / T78 range would be killer for response on a 30DET.

Although a K5 Blitz seems to work well on 2J and RB26.

If I was looking at garrett trim turbo's Id look at the HKS equivalent. No point in pouiring all this money into a car only to have a generic turbo slapped on.

*wheezy awaits flamage :P

What other things like std/not std gearbox ratios and tyres are you intending to use .

These things make a difference when looking into turbos because some combinations are going to need more low down torque than others .

If you want it to be a mountain of torque from low revs and max out at around 500+ you could think along the lines of a GT3076R with the 0.82 or 1.06 turbine housing .

If 600 is the ask the maybe a GT3582R .

Personally I wouldn't bother with Garretts version of the T04Z , if I wanted power in that region I'd go straight to their GT4088R which is a twin scroll turbocharger probably in at least the 0.95 A/R turbine housing .

      My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.

      I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.

      I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended

      I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
