Is the car running yet?

 

Depending on the 37R its not much of a difference.

 

Its pretty much a done deal so it looks the 3586 is going on the car. I will have the 37r for sale soon. BTW- Great times on the stock turbo! Were you at the Street Tuner Mayhem with the others?

 

so what are you going to gain from 3586 over your 37r? a lil better spool and thats it? you need to turn your boost up to get all that power out of your gt37. I made 762 on my gt37(5 bolt .63) on 41psi. You going to spend a lot more money on the hta3586 for better spool and get about same power out of the car. Its your money but $1800 is a lot to spend for better spool, that gt37 will get you into 9s too.

 

yeap,

 

I always thought the 4202 had a 74mm wheel where the 37r had a 67mm. I could be wrong.

 

Great point. I actually would like to have better spooling turbo but I don't want to lose any top end. I'm getting the 3586 for a killer deal not to mention I can sell my 37r for a good chunk of change since it has low miles. So it really won't cost too much to upgrade. Thats some impressive figures on the 37r! Nice!

 

Thats correct.. the 4202 is much larger.. remember there are 2 versions of 42r... 4294 and 4202.. 4294 is 70mm.. Still a Laggy POS IMO..

good luck selling it, i cant even sell my gt37hta for 1100, everyone wants to pay $800 for it,lol right now its hard to sell anything it all.

 

Thanks for clearing that up Mike.

Yeah I know... I've been having good luck selling named brand turbo's on ebay lately. If anything I may just throw it on my Typhoon. Its wimpy V6 turbo sucks *** and that would make a nice upgrade until I get the TT V8 setup done (next year).

 

The bigger compressor isnt what always means its going to be laggy. I have seen some old 37s (PT67 to be exact) that werent much better than a 4202 (both twin scroll and open). The 3586 seems to make all the power a 67 (nee 37) would and still scoots better than it would.

 

whats the spool difference with the bb6262 vs journal bearing 6262?

 

bump

 

No it isnt All Im missing is a LICP and peakboost doesnt like to pick up their phone.

But with buying a house and building 2 completely different drag cars at the moment the hobby gets expensive very quickly.

 

Let me know next time you're in FL and I'll give you a ride in the 2.0L HTA86.
