Those results follow the usual trends , larger A/R turbine housing uncorks the hot side of the engine pressure balance equation and you often end up with the same power at lower boost pressure .

This is a good example of increasing the gas flow by removing a restriction , it also means lower charge air temps and lower fuel rail pressure so mostly good . The only downside is that the turbine spins up later in the engines rev range because the larger turbine housing passage means low gas velocity through the turbine housings nozzle until the engines revs climb a little higher .

Actually I always wondered what a GT3076R would be like with a 1.06 A/R GT30 turbine housing but its not a combination any ones tried as far as I know .

Throttle vs boost response works really well with larger A/R twin scroll housings but until Garrett gets the lead out and makes twin scroll twin integral gate turbine housings like IHI and a few other manufacturers do don't hold your breath .

Very interested to see how that real GT3071R 0.63 A/R build goes .

Noise , yep nearly always goes up because there is less pulse damping between the exhaust valves and the turbine housings nozzle .

Cheers A .

yep,

I did the same conversion on an Rb26 with the same turbo. I just drove the car for the first time with the 1.06 turbine housing and its heaps louder. Actually, i dunno if i can live with it with the trust 3.5 inch exhaust. I also found that the turbo performs like a light switch; its nothing, nothing, nothing, then wheel spin. I love that banshee wastegate scream though!

yeah its definatly much more agressive thats for sure

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but has anyone else since done this swap?

Really keen on getting some more information on it as im considering doing this at the moment. Id also be interested in seeing how much peak power increased by.

Turbine map for GT3582R/GT3540R .

Yep the 1.06 is quite a jump over the 0.82 , if you can look down the passages from the mount flange side with a torch the difference is very obvious .

my power went from about 350rwkw to 380ishrwkw from the turbo upgrade.

Do you have a graph to compare boost response?

Sounds like it makes the car a lot less linear.

ps. I have a spare 1.06 rear for a GT35 if anyone wants it cheap....

That graph shows a hell of a lot more flow A so cheers.

GT, how did the thing feel? For someone like me who isnt going to use the car for drifting is it a worthwhile update? The 30kws comment is definitley encouraging as im going to use the car for drag racing primarily and that will make a big difference but dont want the thing to be too much of a dog to drive. You dont have any dyno charts do you?

Did you notice any boost control differences, as im having massive issues with my 44tial on the .82?

Brockas, cheers for the offer. Im in NZ and sending a housing may be a tad expensive.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!

      Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.

      Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
