Hey everybody, I have a garrett 3076 external wastegate version ( not sure on the a/r) and was wondering where I can purchase a different rear housing? Im wanting to go to a internal wastegate.. I've heard this is possible, please correct me if I'm wrong. Bit of a noob when it comes to turbos.

Thanks for any help in advance.

We can machine you a IWG .82 rear housing that has a 6 bolt Nissan pattern on the rear, with actuator with bracket supplied, plus the exhaust manifold spacer. In total you will be looking to spend $600.

I should probably give a bit more info.

I recently purchased a GTT which came with a - but not installed - HKS 3037 external wastegate version (56 trim?). Which apparently is exactly the same as a Garrett 3076R. Also got a Trust exhaust manifold for an external gate setup.

So far from the research I've done, it would be simpler and cheaper just to stay with an internal gate system, which is the reason for my original question.

Or would I be better off going the external gate route.?

Yes I realize what I have already been told. But about which route I should take is where I'm not sure on. I've read that an internal gate can be restrictive on how much boost can be run and that a .82 internal gate housing will spool slower than if it was an external gate setup instead.. Is this true? Im looking for a fun street use setup that will go well on the track aswell. And money isnt the biggest issue.

hks 3037 had the cropped turbine wheel iirc

so a standard gt30 rear end won't work

So using Bens rear housing won't work, I take it this won't work either?

Would the hypergear one work or would I better off just using what I have and going the external gate route?

That's what I have.

Hypergear should be able to machine a hkusing to suit your turbo.

Okay so I'll keep that in mind that I'll be looking at about $600 for an internal gate rear housing.

Now, what I'd also like to know, seeing as I already have the manifold for it, what are the pros and cons of internal vs external gate in this particular set up? Besides the fact I'll need to buy an external gate and the fab work.
Can one handle more boost than the other? Or is one laggier than the other?

Sell hks turbo complete buy bens gt3076r. Hks gt3037 has a cropped exhaust wheel as stated above. Same as the gt2835.

That's genius!

If you were considering a housing for 600 a whole turbo for 1250 makes sense. Approx 500o k's use and includes dump pipe.

I was seriously considering it but im going a high mount ext gate as I think itll match the plazmaman plenum better I think. But op should def buy and sell the hks. Wont lose money as the hks 3037's still get $1000+ mark.

No, they are just saying that the HKS turbos used a cropped wheel. So the 2835 is a cropped 3071, the 3037 i believe is a cropped 3076

HKS 3037 and 2835 are two completely different turbos, the 3037 will deliver more power with more lag.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.

      Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃

      You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
