Any decisions for new turbo set up? Something big and ugly.. Try some Holset or Schwitzer.. Those turbos are really "bang for the buck".. Yeah, still "old" nice GT3071r . Still not decided, I like the response of 3071, with it the engine have boost very soon (0,1 bar at 1800 rpm) and wide power range (from 3500 to 7500 rpm), which is great for a DD car. Going with much bigger turbo I'll loose DD ability I'm afraid. Well Holset HX35 with 54mm or 56mm compressor and #12 divided turbine housing could be a nice step in terms of DD. Holsets usually beats any turbo in spool times in same turbo size category.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks . Yes, boost limit is active, especially in first two gears. Max. boost is 1,9 bar at around 7k rpm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The GT3076R is too small step up (capable around 50HP more than GT3071R), but GT35R sounds much better . Still, it will be very hard decision to move on because I really like this abbility of a GT3071R: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sute1568908560 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Is there any chance to route the pipe just over the engine? I mean beginning from the compressor outlet to the intercooler. Is there enough room and the hood could be closed? What is your piping diameter? 63mm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcode1568908558 Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 It could be done that way either I believe, a slight oval shaping of the pipe above the engine should do the trick of making a room for closing the hood. Yes, the pipe diameter I'm using is 2,5" (63 mm). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GerBeGurGya Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 Nice.Just an observation.Your filter might need replacement as it seems that it has collapsed like a really dirty one would with real high resistance.Also check your PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
