AMS 30r
AMS 30r
Can AMS shed some light on my question here.
I Have an AMS GT35r kit, and i think i made the wrong decision in purchasing this turbo.
Initially I though i wanted outright power but things have changed and i would like a more drivable car...
I have been reading and checking some logs and the 35r is gonna be a bit to laggy for my liking on a 2L.
now my issue is this, can i purchase a separate turbo from you guys (30r) and will this turbo fit my existing 35r kit.
What AR does the AMS 30r turbo kit come with, and can i get a 0.82 or will only the 0.63 fit . I know AMS uses the 5 bolt housing and turbos come from precision and they make a 3076 in a 0.82.
if later on my plans change and i get a 2.2 stroker i will use then use my 35r.
but at this point in time i enjoy a quick spooling car, not willing to have a 2500rpm power band.
Care to provide some info ERIC!
Thanks

The 30r will bolt on to your current kit, IMO with a stock 2.0 it is a much safer (stock bottom end) and streetable turbo... Now with that said if you have springs and retainers and can rev to 8-8200v(with the 35r) its not such a waste of a turbo but when you add race gas you are way over the limits of your stock bottom end. If you want a 30r I have one from my AMS kit with 2300 miles for sale because I am having a stroker done by AMS right now and am getting a 35r.
Heheh!!
yip we were planing to and i was going to buy your turbo
only prob JohnEb is your 3076 is a 0.63 right..... i am after the 0.82 hotside.
do you think that a 3076 with Ar 0.86 will work!

look the reason i ask for a 30r 0.82 is that i have been in one and there was ver little lag.
you at high altitude as well when did you see full boost in 3rd gear John

Why not a 50 trim? My car hit 499 at 28lbs. and the spool was great I thought. That was on meth inject. and a flash??
I am not very good with turbo's but I believe the 50 trim spools a bit sooner than the 30R however the 30R has a bit more top end.. I believe that's what AMS told me when I was comparing my car to Martin's white one.

50 trim turbo is completely different and wont be a swop of turbo
i think they have a different mani all together!
Unless I am completely mistaken the manifold and everything else is the same from AMS 50 to 35. And I would be happy to swap turbo's and some cash with ya if you want a 50
OK here we go
The 30R and 35R will be a direct swap. the only thing that might need to changed is your intake pipe depending on what sort of engine management.
As far as A/R housings go keep in mind we use the PTE housing which are rated better then the Garrett. The PTE .63 housing we use is PERFECT for an evo and I really would not recomend going with anything bigger. Honestly the Garrett .82 is going to spool very similar to that GT35R .63 housing.
