What Would You Choose

[old mate]

ok the motor is an rb25det s1.

my goals are 400hp and retain some form of response or realy not having a very lagy turbo.

the two turbos i have are:

Garrett GT3082r, .63 rear ext gate

HKS TO4S, .7# rear or and option to use a larger .8# rear ext gate.

now i know the Garrett is ball bearing with the smaller rear but i have read they suffer compressor surge??? and the HKS is old design and not ball bearing so i can expect it to not be as responsive as the Garrett.

i drift ALOT so i want a turbo that is going to be usefull to me.

What would you choose of the two.

Thanks, Steve.

i would sell them both and get a GT3076R

[old mate]

whys that? what specs would you get? little more detail would treat me.

Agreed.

400hp is what, 240rwkw-250rwkw give/take.

GT3082 - too big, will produce another 50rwkw in a sniff

HKS T04S - too old/laggy, same as 3082, more power

GT3076 - NOW you are talking a turbo fit for a task.

For more details on the 3076 - a simple search is all that's required.

discopotato & plenty of other users have posted more info than you'll understand

thank you for your reply. i should not a problem on selling the turbos, the hks one is just been rebuilt. what would you expect to pay for a fresh rebuilt turbo?

[R31Nismoid]

Check the For Sale area mate - i'm not really up with older turbo pricing like i used to be

A 3076 will set you back around $1500 or so, this may influence your asking price/s

[old mate]

thats not too bad. i didnt realise the 3076 is also the 3037 wich is what i wanted in the first place. i should ask more questions before buying stuff.
