StockyMcStock Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 great turbos, only difference between this and the garrett GT35/40 1.06 rear is the *slightly* smaller compressor wheel and different A/R on the thing. with a GT40 compressor though, it's not really an issue, they're capable of big airflow!

rayin Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 turbo still for sale? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/86014-garrett-3540-gt35r-internal-wastegate-turbo/#findComment-1557100 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughBoy Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 Yes turbo is for sale. The only difference between this turbo and an aftermarket GT35R (GT3540) is the smaller A/R compressor housing. The wheels are identical and are not smaller. Please don't post rumours or unvalidated facts as this is what led me to purchasing one of these turbos in the first place .... to find out it is exactly the same wheel sizes. Hence why it's too big for my purposes.

makaveli Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Hi, It looks like a really nice turbo. Im after something that will bolt on and offer more power. What kind of applications will it suit? How laggy will it be on a rb25? What power output is it capable of? My car has excedy clutch, blitz ic, full exhaust, pod, power fc and blitz ebc. So once I upgrade my turbo I will need to get a z32 afm and a fuel pressure reg or better injectors.

DoughBoy Posted August 31, 2005 Author Share Posted August 31, 2005 If you look up on www.turbofast.com.au you can see that they rate this size turbo and exhaust housing at 700hp. Fatz(Pete) has one on his RB26, I think he posted it makes full boost in the late 4xxxrpm? If using it on an RB25 I would strongly recommend cams, AFM, injectors, intercooler etc. It should make an easy 300rwkw+.

makaveli Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Thankyou for your reply I think this turbo could possibly be too big for my needs, Im after something that will make full boost in the late 3xxxrpm's and make mid to high 2xx kw range. Sorry if I have inconvenienced you at all. P.S Would you know of something suitable at a similar price???

StockyMcStock Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 (edited) just going on what the garrett supplier told me when he measured the wheels. the one he measured was definately smaller than the standard GT40 compressor wheel but not by much. maybe there's different revisions of the ford turbo out there?

DoughBoy Posted September 1, 2005 Author Share Posted September 1, 2005 Sorry I don't have a manifold, although I think Fatz could be persuaded to sell his complete setup to you.

AMS Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Possible of 300kw plus at the wheels for the Stagea? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/86014-garrett-3540-gt35r-internal-wastegate-turbo/#findComment-1562528 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughBoy Posted September 4, 2005 Author Share Posted September 4, 2005 Will check to see if the lines are the same diameter and thread, it's just a Garrett GT30 core so it should be similar. Not sure about the dump pipe, there might be a couple of companies offering the dump to suit Ford which may be similar. Should be more than capable of making 300kw @ all 4 wheels, if there are already people making 400 in rwd mode then 300 @ awd would be a shoe in.
