Need A New Turbo! What Do I Buy?

[2000 RS]

you guys are really turning me off this forum, close to disowning you guys.

So negative towards anything.

Have you ever thought the workshop is booked out till early next week with other jobs before mine?

Did you know im going to melbourne and getting back to adelaide on Wednesday?

I have done my best not to bite back with you guys but now im getting to the end of my line now........

[SLY-33R]

I feel for u rs2000. I have been on this forum for a few years and posted very little due to fear of what your are receiving from members.

My knowledge of rb is limited so I mainly read and never post absorbing info to better help me.

In their defence u asked a question, received advice and then went the other way. U made ur original question redundant by ur turbo selection.

Afterall it is the interwebs and if u cant take some banter this forum is probly not for u.

[Daleo]

Do your own thing mate.

Opinions are like arseholes; everyone's got one.

Hope you end up with what you are after.

[Josh080691]

In the end its your own decision we just tried point u in the best direction for ur power goal and trying to save u about a grand at the same time. If ur happy with ur choice kudos to u. My prediction with. A gt30 on a stag is 215kw

[Tangles]

215kw, LOL

more like 270kw (with the supporting mods such as injectors, ecu, tuning, etc)

[2000 RS]

Just because i didnt get a hyper gear turbo alot of you guys have been pricks, its my money my car ill do what i want with advice from anyone. You guys dont know how much money i earn or have in the bank, my car isnt a budget build.

I do appreciatte anyones opinion and advice, and yet again i thank you for your time.

Banter me all you want ive lost alot of respect for some users in this members in this forum, peoples posts and how they express them selves is who they are as an individual.

Let the keyboard warriors begin!

[2000 RS]

Oops, cant edit that last post. Im sure you will make out what i was trying too say.

[Dream15]

Maybe this thread should read 'need a new turbo! This is what i'm buying!' Instead of 'Need a new turbo! What should i buy?'

[jet_r31]

Do your own thing ,if you don't like whats said, ignore it or leave, no one will care either way, good luck with the turbs

cheers

What those two said.

I struggle to believe that you were after sound advice when you started this thread. You seemingly ignored the almost unanimous advice handed out which leaves people scratching their heads and wondering what was the point of the thread in the first place. That in turn leads to scorn cause, well, what was the point of it all?

But at the end of the day do whatever you want to. I'm sure you'll be happy with the result of the 3076. Just don't get sand in your vagina when we go off track cause the thread is essentially over.

[2000 RS]

I started this thread to get your opinions, i got your opinions and opinions from people outside the forum and come up with an answer. That answer obviously upset some of you guys and you made it clear.

I thought simon at morpowa in adelaide was happy with the gtx3076r from what i read in the forums.

[scotty nm35]

I love my GTX3076, but it's a little pointless spending the extra cash and sticking a 400kw, high boost capable turbo on if you aren't going to use it's potential... Just my opinion.

If you are planning to run it hard, it will be a very fast wagon, just a little laggy down low. There are definitely better options for a daily but your decision is made now, so enjoy it.

you need more fuel octane as a bare minimum to use the extra flow of that turbo, otherwise its pointless over a vanilla 3076, do you understand that?

(i am not being condescending, i am just asking if you do know)

So switch to E85, water/meth, or ..

.the best and easiest octane booster is methanol added at 10 percent/98 to your fuel tank

you can buy it at o.g speed shop on o.g road for $1.00 a litre and adding 10 percent to you tank is easy peasy...

don't f**k around with octane booster in a bottle, it expensive and usually just toluene or such..which you can buy from solvers paint cheaper..lol

and that should get you a very decent result over 98 octane and make it worth it, otherwise until fuel octane is increased you will hit a brick

wall at roughly the same place we all do with similiar sized turbos , regardless of how fancy or expensive the turbo is...thats physics

so octane=win, you have 3 ways to do it

98 octane= my family car would be faster

You can ask around, but this is the truth, anyone telling you otherwise, doesn't know what the f**k they are talking about...

Be shame to spend all that money and not have a better than normal result, if youve got money, and don;t holiday it , E85 the frigging thing

Good post ^

Doed your ecu support two maps? Could tune it for both

Cant go wrong with Garrett, although I'd have looked into the gtx3071 perhaps

Mainly for the down low get up & go factor

Dont be worried about others opinions, its your car. If it was me I wouldn't have gone HG, just saying (my opinion lads, Garrett is top shelf....)

You asked the question, did your research, made a decision. That's what the forum is all about

Car specs?

[2000 RS]

1000cc jectors

Forged internals, engine had a full rebuild from remac.

Crank collar? For oil pickup.

N1 oil pimp

Dentscwerx fuel pump, unsure on lph. Great spelling haha.

Nistune

3" zorst

Aftermarket coil packs

Z32afm

Fmic

Air pod cant remember brand

Tomie pon cams

Ive prolly missed heaps of stuff

Mv auto shift kit with billet servo

[Tangles]

Sounds same as mine, besides S15 injectors & ATS gt3076 highflow

Good luck with the tune - ive got a chipped remaped ecu + injector controller (fic/8)

I did a similar thiing to you, got as much info as I could from as many places as I could and made a decision from there. I too have a GTX3076 ready to bolt on along with 6Boost highmount etc etc, had the intention of using WMI but United now sell E85 so my plan has changed slightly. I for one will be very interested to hear how your tune goes, good luck!

[4bidn1]

Rs2000 are you going to run e85 ? And are you still running standard intake and exhaust manifolds ?

3katz e85 gtx 6 boost mani and external gate you would expect upper 300-400rwkw,

Rs is running internal

4bidn1 im going to get it tuned with 98, i have standard intake and exhaust manifolds for now.

I have the cash to replace them with aftermarket but wanna see how it comes back to me with the gtx3076 and a retune, i have bigger injectors so i can tune it for e85 anytime i please.

1 step at a time for me i guess.

I so badly wanna put a stall converter in, i think it would be deadly in an auto.

[scotty nm35]

It would also make the car a pig to drive, unless you match it very well. Unfortunately getting the stator machined can be a little hit and miss from my experience.
