I always used to love DD because I think they give more realistic figures compared to hubbers, but after using the dynapac lots now I'm converted. The ability to have such repeatable and consistent results so you can actually compare cars and/or modification effects is awesome

Until you have to tune more than 2 cars a day, they are great. I learnt dyno's on a dynapak........ perfect for wheel spin issues as well.

Like an ecu (well most) , its only ever as accurate as the operator.

That AWD Motorsports claim of this GT3794HTA being on the GT35R "footprint" is a bit interesting . I suspect they may mean the same mounting flage footpring because the BB GT37 turbos are all larger center section things than a GT3582R/X/HTA .

I hadn't thought Garrett would put together a BB spec GT37 turbine with their GT94 compressor wheel . They did do a GT4094R which people I know of thought was a bit lack luster . Forced Performance seems to be doing quite well with their HTA compressor and port shrouded housing upgrades on Garrett cartridges .

Not knocking what people are doing with these things or GT3788Rs but a little while back David Buschur cranked out from memory 600+ from a stretched 4G63 on E85 with a GT3076HTA , not sure which turbine housing though .

Sorry if slightly OT but there are also 3 variants of the GT37BB series and the mid comp spec one uses the same compressor wheel as the smaller frame GT3582R .

Poor choice of words , what I ment was lacking compared to a GT4294R . From memory HKSs sollution was to use a T51 turbine and a slightly smaller trim 94mm compressor . It may be possible to buy the T51R/94mm cartridge through Garret and source you own housings .

A GT4094R is just a 4088R with a 94mm compressor in a housing intended for an 88mm wheel . The 94 and 102mm compressors usually have larger housings and I think HKS had their own made up for T51R KAi and SPL .

Not sure why a GT3076HTA making 600whp on E85 would be knocking these? I am not aware of anyone hitting a wall with these yet and people have pulled 900whp on E85 with them on high boost. A DSM in the states has done 8.4 at around 170mph with one.... pretty serious business!

Sorry still OT but I believe those GT3076HTAs have a lot of potential even on larger than 2-2.4L fourbangers . The GT30 turbine gets a big increase in exhaust flow capacity with even the 1.06 AR T3 flanged turbine housing and FP has already upsized to the larger 0.70 AR T04S compressor housing on this turbocharger .

If I ever built an RB30 and wanted to spend money on turbos this is what I'd use and it'd be on an IW GT30R turbine housing in 0.82 or 1.06 AR .

Anyway back to the GT3788R and GT3794HTA I reckon some of the gains would be from the turbine living in a housing designed for it rather than a GT35 turbine bashed into a bored out GT30 turbine housing a la GT3582R .

Hopefully in time Garrett will make available to the public the large frame ball bearing GT35 turbos using the GT40 turbine housings intended for that turbine .

Agreed on the 76HTAs, I've mentioned a few times I'd like to see one on an RB25.

In regards to the GT37 vs GT35, in the EVO world the general consensus seems to be the GT3586HTA is an overall better match unless you intend on pushing past 40psi - >800whp Dynojet style with a 4G63. Psi for psi they offer similar power, better spool, better transient response etc - so it doesn't seem like the GT35 turbine is really doing it a huge disservice.

A mate of mine hit 560rwkw on ~25psi using E30 with a GT3586HTA on an RB, with ridiculously good power delivery -fwiw.

On a 2L 4cyl yes I would definitely stay with the GT35 or GTX35. It's only the larger displacement 6 cylinders that seem to benefit from them so much

So recently one of the American drag DSMs running one of these had a few upgrades and a bit more of a fierce tune recently using a T3 flanged GT3794HTA and lay down 936awhp on a Mustang dyno (read similar to DD/Mainlines).

Its first event it ran 8.48 @ 171mph on E85, and apparently has more in it...

    • I just checked my belt, it wasn't super loose but I could bend it past 90 degrees a small amount so I tightened it up and for the first time ever my car didn't crank first time, had to crank it again lol. Don't know if that was because I tightened the belt or if it's my starter motor going out (been having slow starts for some time). Coulda also been when I was recording I didn't crank the key properly and it didn't save the recording lol
    • My purchase experience was no where near as glorious as yours but still a significant moment in my life! Yeah that's a bit of a dilemma as to whether you bring it back or not!  Obviously a massive waste of time and effort to bring it back if you're only going to move there anyway!
    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • 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.
