Manual Conversion - What Turbo Recommendations !

[rasored]

As the title suggests , doing a manual conversion on an RS4 , 33 ECU and wiring - 2WD with gearbox .

The Turbo is getting old so i thought with the build a new Turbo would be an idea . Now it will be a manual I am thinking a larger/unrated turbo would be beneficial .

I would like to stay with original T3/4 fixings but if that is not a good idea tell me !

Any experience and issues would be a great help .

Head over to the Hypergear turbo thread in the forced induction section; Stao is pulling some pretty impressive numbers with bolt on highflows.

His current one ran 350kw (I think) admittedly E85 on a fabricated manifold, but it looks like a stock r33 turbo.

Getting your old turbo beeefed up has the advantage that it will just bolt straight in. If you have the time you cold post it to Hypergear or there must be local rebuilders although as above Stao from Hypergear has done some great development work. If you want a brand new turbo the Garrett GT3076 could get you 300kw if done right.

I use the garret 3076r 56t with a .63 on mine with a manual awesome turbo and not to much stuffing around to make it fit in my terms , makes 338rwkw on 17psi so more to come yet when I turn the boost up (that's using e85)
