Garrett -5S Vs -10S Or Other (Tuned On E85)

[The Dan]

Gcg or any turbo company, should b looking at how to adapt the factory housing on the gtx series as they would make a truck load of cash, basically bringing out a hole new line up for gtr low mounts around the world.... Not everyone what's a big dirty cheater single.....

We can already have the stock GTR comp covers machined to fit the GTX2863R.

The problem is they surge ported the GTX covers for a reason. We don't want to 'try it out' in case its a flop and we certainly don't want to spend someone elses money to see.

To answer the question above. Yes the comparisn from -5 to GTX on Tomei manifolds would be enough also

I dont no man, there's a lot of people in this world that have gtr's and low mount twins. They are losing sales because it's a pain in the ass to fit the gtx turbos. So why not design a new cover for em so they can b adapted, could surely couldn't cost that much, I mean they make turbos all day everyday, something like making a housing to fit should b that hard. They have made them all before. I'm guessing, but surely you wouldn't think it was a big deal considering that's what they do....

Wouldn't the bigger inlet and outlet be a major player in the figures, therefore, even if a surge ported cover with 2 bolt outlets could be achieved, it's restricting the gtx design and why it works so well.. Would make it a different turbo altogether. Be hardly worth it to produce a mediocre result from what can be achieved with the original gtx design?

[The Dan]

Not really. They are surge ported to allow air to pass on to the exducer faster. It will allow more flow that way but we could back cut the comp cover to achieve a similar result I think.

The GTX turbo bolts straight inside the turbine housing of a -5/7/9 so if you want your comp cover machined up to suit I can get it done for you no problem.

They will be cheap for whoever wants to trial them that way. I'm talking around $1k a piece but that still hasn't been confirmed yet. STILL waiting for return phone calls on it. Hopefully I can chase it up a little more tomorrow

Sold lol

Daniel can you get supertech valve springs at a good price also? might aswell change them also in case the tomei's are a restriction.

[N1GTR]

Damn that's a good price Dan.

Absolutely. Can I sell them to you at a good price though? Hahaha

*looks around to make sure Nismoid isn't watching*

Damn that's a good price Dan.

What price? I don't know what you're talking about.

[N1GTR]

Lol

[SS8_Gohan]

^ hahahahahaha

*still laughing*

Comparative dyno results vs -5's on exactly the same setup and roughly the same time of year for both dyno runs. Also a non-WA dyno result would be preferred

Luckily the dyno is a Victorian made unit (Dyno Dynamics)

sorry for the ignorant question but the GT-RSs have a slot in the comp cover, is that a surge port? and ifso would the GT-RSs comp cover go onto the GTX?

I don't think it would make a difference man. The GTX have a much bigger inlet to the comp wheel than the "GTR friendly" turbos.

The GTX low mounts simply just aren't bolt on .

hi guys im in gold coast and if you want ill do it i have a r34 gtr vspec and i have a spare motor and r34 head along with a hks 2.8l stroker kit sounds like something for the 34 if you still need some1 im in 100%

[N1GTR]

Yes^^^^ There we go

Good stuff on stepping up and giving it a go!

[hks 2.8l bnr34]

i ready to go i have emails elite racing with all my detail and im ready for anything they want to try i have a shit load of stuff to build the head also if you want a built head and a spare block let get the 34 started new project and sponsorship come on guys lets do it for my amazing fiance that has cancer it is her and my dream car lets do it

[hks 2.8l bnr34]

Hi elite racing iv been trying to contact you about this project if pickups please get back to me today as im about to buy a new step zero stroker kit to build responsive motor please et me know as I dont buy it if im doing this as that stroker kit the say dont push it past 405kw to be safe thanks again guys im willing to get my spare motor shit buy you guys if you want to build it to what ever spec you want thanks again

Hi mate I got your email. I'm not ignoring you but I'm currently booked out until September 5th so getting in to reply is something difficult to do (especially because I don't want to give you a 1 line reply)

You being local is a bonus for test fitups so I'm organising a pair to be sent to me for a test fit if you are willing

Are the manifolds on the engine at the moment?
