Gtx3071 Install


Recommended Posts

The screamer lives up to its name. lol. I think i'm a little deaf now. I will have to plumb it back in but I want a tune and one run at Calder first.

Drives great, I dont know what all the fuss is with regards to the larger housing, from what I saw it has around 10psi by 3500 and 20psi by 4k. The transient response is bullshit, hitting gate within around a second of me flooring it. Much more responsive than the old highflow. (sorry ironpaw) *chuckles*

Other than overheating because I didnt bleed the cooling system properly the install went without issue. No leaks, no noise, smooth power delivery, what more could I ask. :cheers:

a) lovely stuff mate

b) maybe figure out how much it will cost to do a very similar turbo/wastegate/front pipe setup/install

c) when do I get to drive it?

d) we really need to get that Fcon in there

Hahaha. You can sit in the passenger seat, it may smell a bit, Aaron had a crap there, and Sharon will too when she hears the gate, she doesn't know about it. I cant wait to scare the crap outa her. lol.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
