What Is The Best Garrett Turbo Bolton For R33

[manuel]

Can anyone recommend a Garrett turbo which will bolt on to my standard exhaust manifold. i currently have an xforce 1 piece dump pipe down to cat in 3 inch stainless steel. this will need to match up to back of turbo. Im currently running standard turbo.

Im looking for a garrett which will give me 260 to 280kw at wheels with great response and minimal effort to install.

Does garrett have a bolton replacement which can give me some good power.

i have all the supporting hardware, just need turbo

Thanks guys

Yes.

GT3071 - do a search mate.

[wolverine]

unfortunately it won't bolt up to the dump and it will require oil and water lines and intake mods.

then again I am sure a search of the gazillion threads on this will give you are the information you will ever need.

I will have a look for info on GT3071r

thanks guys

Do you think this garrett item is better than the hypergear hiflow turbos?

I have spoken to fred from Turbologic in Wollongong and he recommends buying a new garrett turbo off the shelf rather than spending money to high flow my stock.

After a hiflow, the only true bolt on turbo's are the HKS line, they are more expensive but they are a complete kit. I'd look at the GTRS and the 2853 pro S for that power range. As Wolverine says, the Garrett are not bolt on, they require new dump and oil/water lines.

I believe the hypergears are good functional turbo's. The main diffs are in the country of manufacture and I know the Garrett is ball bearing whereas I think the hypergear are plain bearing, but others can correct me if I'm wrong.

So do A'PEXi (IHI) I had an AX53B70 which I saw was up for sale on these forums again recently... they are also in the same power range

Have a look at the middle of the page, dump pipe is a bolt on but you will need oil and water lines which they also sell which will make it a straight bolt on.

HKS do the strait bolt up turbos mate, GT-RS (2530) is good for 250kw at wheels and good response too

[PM-R33]

A GTRS is not the same as a 2530, the 2530 is smaller.

gt3071r kit, comes with everything including dump from GCG, and unlike the other supliers it is clocked ready to bolt on.... which means no custom actuator braket etc...

[bozodos]

what kind of boost would a 3071 need to make say 260rwkw though?

[JonnoHR31]

depends on the dyno. might make it at 14-15psi on a happy dyno. might need 20+ on a lower reading dyno and if you have some restrictions

[GTR_Legend]

i purchased a gt3071r kit with .82 rear housing, will be installed tomorrow.

apparently a complete bolt on kit...waterlines, spacer etc...

[bozodos]

Interesting; here I was thinking I'd need a 3076R with a .82 rear to get a lazy 14 psi / 260rwkw!

[hypergear]

should get 270rwkws on 16psi with a 3076 .82 on a healthy engine.

[R31Nismoid]

16-18

[bozodos]

hang on, talking in approximate values here, you can use EITHER a 3076R or a 3071 to get around the same power at similar boost levels? :S

[R31Nismoid]

3076 would be 14psi @ a stab. Bit less than a 3071 as it flows more air.

it's all subjective anyway. one motor might need 16 psi, the next might need 17/18

[JonnoHR31]

exactly, myne needs 18psi to make 250, running 22psi now. but i have a shit dump pipe

[GTR_Legend]

Anyone reading this topic want to also share their experiences on the "bolt on kits"?

as above, i noted that i purchased a Garret 3071R kit.

got it from a shop in sydney who i think may have ordered it from SA (I could be wrong)

according to my tuner the kit was incorrect with parts missing.

The spacer was not included. cost me an extra $30 organise one locally.

No elbow for the comp housing, not sure if this was to be included though.

studs provided were also imperial, not metric.

also something with either the water or oil line not being the correct size or length.

anyone else know or come across these issues?
