I have been hearing that one of the best manifolds for the evo is a ported stock version. Is this turbo a good set up for someone not looking to spend $5,000 for a kit? Since this gt35r bolts up to a stock manifold and has a spot for the 38mm tial right on it. Anybody using this, seen this in action?

*BUMP* People are looking, but nobodys replying?

 

This would be a major waste of a GT35R. It's the same GT35R solution that ATP sells and it's been proven to seriously restrict flow. The ported stock manifold is perfect for a stock turbo, but TERRIBLE for a GT turbo, except maybe in the case of the Vishnu GT30R adapter kit, but that costs as much as most of the top tubular manifold kits.

 

yes, do a search for atp turbo kits. It is the same thing.

 

Just want to add a question to this thread, will this turbo bolt up to a megan racing o2 housing (or any aftermarket o2 housing for the stock turbo, or will you need a o2 housing that is specific for this turbo? thanks all. I think that your best bet would be to buy a tubular exhaust manifold, i know the megan racing one goes for about 250, but i have heard mixed reviews on it. Never heard firsthand a bad reivew though...

 

Everyone on here says those cheap chrome plated tubular manifolds are junk, they crack and flow no more than a ported stock mani. Does the mitsu style inlet flange have a smaller opening which reduces the flow? ATP's website only states that they used low boost 660cc and otherwise stock engine. And dynoed 414 at the wheels. While someone on here "Ted B" made 395 on 93oct and 22psi on a fully custom kit.

The ATP "kit" which includes a downpipe and clamps retail for $2750.00! While this turbo is only $1200.00 Then you could fab up a downpipe and oil lines and clamps.

Do you think with some 272's, alchy kit and 28 psi this turbo on a ported stock mani wouldnt yeild decent numbers?

Thanks "lbcevo" for your educated guidance and to save the hassle of returning parts.

 

It is junk.It is proven to spool late and not hold power !!

 

Here is a link to real proven kits that WORK. The prices are to hard to pass up and we have a few spots left.

Our GT35R Kits retail for $4499. We have them on group buy right now for $2999. That is a huge savings!!!

 

You can always buy Buschur's for 3199$ been proven to trap 140mph. I love Shearers 35R kit, but I can't justify the extra 1.3K it costs to buy it.

 

Thanks to everyone for their input... But one question still remains... The first reply said that you need a tubular manifold to achieve real hp#'s with the gt35r properly. Is this buschur cast manifold the only exception? Or is the difference in the t3 inlet vs mitsubishi inlet? Thanks for the replies

 

* bumpage *

 

The stock 16g uses a divided housing mitsubishi flange to accomidate its twin-scroll ability. The T3 is completely different. It's like using a cheap bb-gun to fire a 9mm copper bb... then trying to ask if you can reuse that BB gun to fire a 7.62 nato round...

 

Finally a technical answer besides, "its junk"! I asked this in the begining and nobody answered. Thanks for the reply and that option is out of the question. Bushur racing or a future group buy is what i'll wait for.

 

The Problem that you run into with any apt turbo kit isnt that it sucks or blows or anything like that its that

a stock ported manifold will flow a great amount, but the collector is the issue, cause its a twin scroll design, when you use the ATP kit for instance, the hot side that they use is too restrictive, cause too much manifold pressure, and causing EGTs to rise, causing you to lose power,

If you really want to spend 2700 on a turbo kit, Buy RNRs kit, They are not proven but alot of people have been running them and also have run into a ton of issues with them, pretty much the outcome is you get what you pay for. If you can spring the extra 600 go for the BR 35r turbo kit, which again is very much proven itself over and over again.

Me, Im thick headed and will be making my Own turbokit, Prob sourcing a DNP manifold, and a SC61 BB or 35r of some sort, My goal is not a Trailer queen, rather a highway monster than I can build for decent money. I figure if spend 2700 on a RNR kit, I can prob make my own for 2000 maybe less, considering i am going to be welding and fabbing alot of this myself, This is my winter project and i have ALOT of time on my hands so i need something to entertain myself for the time being.

My other excuse is that my gf has my money locked away in a safe, to buy a house. ( prob not! bet its for that Fing ring she wants!)



And nobodies answering you cause you didnt search, cause if you did you wont have to make us repeat and re post the same info over and over and over and over again
