Hey all...

I know that there has been a bolt-on GT35R turbo available for years from PTE. This is only for the DSM's though:

I was contemplating somehow customizing the turbo so that it would bolt-on directly to our Evo VIII's and IX's. It would be a great solution for people looking for a large bolt-on without having to spend thousands more for the whole kit. It's not fun changing out aftermarket pieces that you have already purchased for different aftermarket pieces...

Would this even be possible? What would have to be done? If not, why not?

Thank you!

 

look up ATP they have made a exaust housing to do this for years

the stock turbo spins in reverse from normal turbo so the stock manifold is very close to the radiator and with 857 posts you should know this. A funky exhaust housing has to be made to compensate for that, and you have the ATP kit. Some like it some hate it. I believe it would have to hinder top end flow and spool.

 

+1 Atp

 

im sure anything is possible if you have the tools.

they do have the atp kits. 2300

cheers!

 

Interesting...

I may contemplate on building one for myself and if it works out, buying a bunch and selling them

 

I dont think it would sell, not to many people buy the ATP and why would they by yours

 

ATP is very good, look at my thread. there is no lack of power up top at all. in fact it keeps climbing.

 

Any links or info on the special housing from ATP?

 

I think this could be done:

it already was!!!

 

Im talking about making my own kit for it though...

Does anyone else make a bolt on GT series turbo?

 

so ur telling me u have the manufacturing capabilities to cast your own precise hotside? hey man go for it.

 

No no no lol

The turbo comes precasted to fit the stock manifold. Im talking about welding pieces to make everything else fit: downpipe, wastegate, etc.

Do you think it can hit 500whp on race or meth?

 

and u plan on selling this?
