Custom Turbo Project Turbo Selection?
I got my manifold for around $600 new
I have seen them on here for under $400 used.
There was a really nice rnr ram horn manifold in the forsale forum for $375.
I got my 3076r used and i sent it to garrett for a rebuild and a top secret upgrade
.
the downpipe/o2 housing was a nightmare for me, I had to tow the car to a fabricator to make it fit.
seems like all the top vendors won't sell you there v band o2 housing.

try calling PTE to find more info on their turbos. I just got one of their 57 trim turbos for my car. ETS just finished putting the kit together for me and next week will have dyno#'s and track times
yeah that might be the case i just need to come and drive your car to see
I havent drove it since the night we put that turbo on there.... sure it spools much better now
I know you've already got the manifold it seems...but did you consider just going the FP Green route? For the power levels you are wanting, this could put you spot on, plus better spool than a GT3076R.
One of our friends locally waited a while for one and is very disappointed in his.
I have been using a pieced together kit for a little over a year now.
The manifold was an RNR style header, the turbo was an old school garrett 60-1.
If you are looking for various fittings etc check out
www.atpturbo.com they have pretty much any fitting you need, coolant and oil as well as the miscelaneous gaskets that you need.
Anyway. I switched my turbo out to a gt3582r check it out
here is the stats of the turbo (GT35R part number 714568-5003 (gt3582r) with ballistic to4s cover a/r 0.70, T31 turbine housing a/r 0.63.)






the hardest part is the charge pipe because you have to make it clear the radiator and if your header is not offset correctly it can be a little bit of a squeeze especially if you want your entire LICP 2.5 inches
good luck with everything

The people that manf. my manifold and downpipe swear up and down its a 3 inch exit flange. Im not so sure. Anyone know if on the discharge flange do they take the measurements from the ID on the flange??? If its the ID its a 2.5" exit...... BTW its a T3 Style 4 bolt flange.....
