The compressor map shows it's better everywhere... Where are the 3076R are only different up the higher boost end!

ok not identical, but not hugely different, the results from that subaru thread show a similar thing. Most the gains are to be had at high boost levels.

50lb/min pretty much all the way through the pressure range is fairly significant, considering that translates to around 50hp!

so is any one actually running any of the new GTX turbos,

inparticular the GTX35 on a 26?

Can pretty much get the whole kit for 3700 ... includes turbo, manifold, wastegate, water lines, gaskets etc, just need a dump pipe and intake

sounds alright to me

GTX3076R doesn't look like a big enough step to justify itself and the GT3076R is a little small for a 3litre, anyway :P

I'm not sold on the GTX turbos yet, and await the EFR7670 with interest...

Given you don't still have the stock turbo it seems that you aren't JUST after response, have you driven something with an RB30 in it yet?

haha touche! my setup as is makes me want more response... i'll be checking out al's car before i make a 100%

Haha I try ;) I think folks underestimate the things, RB30s tend to bring spool down 500rpmish which is what people mostly seem to pay attention to, but its worth remembering that the spool is on a bigger engine too - so even if you had a 500rpm laggier turbo on the RB30 it'd argueably *feel* as responsive as the more responsive turbo on the RB25, trick is its actually that much more responsive.

Terrible use of English, but might still make sense? I reckon I'd find a GT3076R annoying on an RB30 after having one on an RB25, and a GT2835 isn't THAT much different to a GT3076R really. For what its worth a twin scroll T04Z on an RB30 makes my car feel like a laggy sack.

Definitely experience it for yourself, but the difference between the two motors is much more than saying "half a litre" justifies.

I have read this post 3 times and my head hurts.

Why would you find a 3076 on an RB30 annoying? too linear and not enough of a hit?

I've encountered some results from a GTX3582R which I know the conservatives and such forth on here will potential throw toys at - don't shoot the messenger please. This is a "full retard" EVO running running 13:1 compression and race gas on around 30psi. Its stock displacement and clearly not set up for low down torque so much as going apesh1t:

Apesh1t achieved, the most generous that reading could be is crank hp which is still mental for a T3 flanged turbo which spools anywhere near that quick - laggy on a 2litre but an RB30 would make it perfectly useable.

I think that's a great result.

It still has a good 3k of usable power after the bullshit steep ramp. Though you wouldn't want to get caught below the boost threshold.

Dunno that it'd work too well on an rb30. Remember you have to keep the revs below 4k becasue it's only a truck engine.

S2000 and GTX 3076 with Tial .82 hsg

http://www.s2ki.com/...c=788561&st=875

Thats very,very impressive for 1bar and pump fuel.

And looking at the 500hp graph, it certainly shows there is much more left in it. Doesnt dive over at all.

Ill be doing a direct bolt off/on comparison between the GT35 and GTX35 in the coming months.

thats got to be predicted flywheel. the GTX35 flows about the same as a T04Z and thats not capable of 920@ the hubs.

Probably flywheel though usually it says it and you see a TCF field, but even then 920hp at the fw is taking nothing from it

You're trolling right? Either that or a retard? Truck engine? Don't go over 4k?

    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
