Or just run a Garrett GT4088R which has a real Garrett high temp material spec TS T4 flanged turbine housing . One actually designed for its turbine as well . They really are a better match of wheel to housing on both sides and more thought has gone into the wheel trims too . GT/X35xxR anythings are Garrett bastard bitzer turbos , wrong housings for both wheels and a stupidly large turbine trim . They are a legacy of Garrett trying to have something along the lines of the HKS spec GT3240 without the legal issues back then . You can do better .

A .

Actually I've heard of GT4088R exhaust housings losing integrity under similar conditions as well, and "pound for pound" I reckon are not as good in terms of real world performance on smaller displacement petrol motors than the GT3582Rs. My view of "doing better" would be more like putting a Borg Warner S300SX on there if you were going T4 TS.

until we really start testing this set up its hard to tell.

my personal opinion is it will be a great package in a 1100kg car.. with E85 we are able to make more power with smaller turbo which is great for throtle response and a nice flat power line helping with traction etc

Lol thats overkill for 500-550whp on E85 man - should still see >600whp on a DD if you leaned on it a bit. Just be a bit wary of EGTs on the track/drift, one of the guys here had one on his SR20 S15 running 600-700hp @ hubs on E85 and the divider in the ATP TS housing cracked... not ideal.

Out of interest, was he running e85, what sort of EGT's are you guys seeing with E85.
