A few places sell GTX3076R without turbine housings, at which point they are the same price as a "full" GT3076R... be careful that you dont end up with a full turbo.

Yeah I know, but this was on gcg its bout 1750 for the gt3076 ext and 1300 for the gtx3076 without housing plus antoher 550 for ext housing so its about the same. I find it odd.

gt3076r is $1099 without exh housing get your facts right.

Calm down mate, your right about the price.. 500+ for the 4 bolt or 700+ for the v band housings is an outright rip though.. The internal gate price and the price for the actuator is a joke also.

Hrmm just checked and yeah saw that one but why is the this other one the 52T $1732?

is it just the blade design that has changed? reading this part "Outline interchangeable with Garrett® GT Series turbos" it makes it seem like i could just buy the better blades that fit my turbo for a cheaper upgrade.

Not on the compressor side, but any gt30 rear will fit on the GTX as they haven't changed the turbine wheel.

There are billet compressor wheels on ebay for the gt30, not sure how good they are but you would need to get it balanced by Garrett after fitting it.

My Proflow fittings were weeping ethanol. The rep is looking at them now. I cant fit the turbo until thats sorted unfortunately. Funny enough, the "Torques" ebay fittings were perfect, tested to 90psi as thats all the reg can do.

The other issue I had, there is a large anti surge cup in the fuel tank with small slots in the bottom, at under 1/4 tank the twin walbros can empty it in a few seconds so I need to enlarge the holes. Im back on the stock fuel system for a week or two. (Lucky I left the stock lines in)

Got mine back. Gtx3076. Laggier than stock. Duh. Nice power curve 272.9rwkw at 17psi I think they said. Only got power/torque chart. Getting boost chart tommorow.

No internals. This a daily safe tune.

Mods? Keen to see the dyno sheet :)

That sounds like a normal GT3076 that kind of power, keen to see the dyno sheet to see how much laggier it is compared to a GT3076

    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
    • Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?
    • Well, you wouldn't use 2nd hand bearings out of another engine anyway....so just buying the proper bearings is obviously what you're going to do. The crankshaft would be common. The conrods might be common. There is essentially nothing else you would be able to use.
