I'm looking at buying a used AMS 3076R turbo for my E7. The turbo however is only coming with the oil return line. What else would I need for it to work? Would I be able to buy an install kit for the E8/9 and get the other lines gaskets and bolts that would work? The E7 turbo specs are:

p/n = 49178-01570 (GSR)
p/n = 49178-01580 (RS)
Turbo = TD05HR-16G6-9.8T (GSR)
Turbo = TD05HRA-16G6-9.8T (RS/RS2)
Nozzle Area (cm2) = 9.8
TD05HR turbine = GSR Inconel (steel alloy)
TD05HRA turbine = RS/RS2 = Titanium alloy
Compressor 16G6 = Aluminium
Inducer = 48.3mm
Exducer = 68mm
Turbine housing = twin flapper

I know it's a stretch, but if anyone has actually done this swap I'd dearly love some input. Thanks

 

If you are buying a T3 style turbo the factory manifold and such will not work. You will need to purchase a lot more parts to make the swap.

 

Like what besides the ex mani, what else?

 

Basically, a turbo kit. Well, minus the turbo in your case.

Such as http://www.streettunedmotorsports.co..._placement.htm, or https://secure.buschurracing.com/cat...b27b240893c99c.

 

If you want to bolt it to the stock manifold, you would need a different housing for the turbo.

You would still need to buy an O2 housing, wastegate, dump tube, down pipe, intake piping, oil feed line, coolant lines, and maybe a couple fittings and gaskets. I would personally, only take this route if you're planning on doing custom everything since this is not a kit. Could save you money but I would stick with T3 and get a kit to make things simple.

 

Now I'm confused, AMS is telling me it will work on the E7! This is their e-mail in response to my query.

Hey Kevin,



It should bolt on the Evo 7 no problem but there might be fitment issues with the intake pipe and oil return line as the pan is different. Otherwise it should bolt on ok.



Thanks

 

This is the actual turbo

 

I think AMS is confused and thinks you already have a T3 manifold. This is what your flange looks like on your stock manifold.

You will not be able to bolt that turbo onto your stock manifold. You would need to get a T3 manifold, wastegate, etc. to make it work.

 

I just bought my gt3076r for my evo 8. But mine going to bolt on to my stock manifold tho. U can check out the turbo on eBay... Just put gt3076r evo 9 on the search... Bought mine for a ill bit $1799 plus shipping. I will get mine in a week.

 

Pm me n I will tell u when I install it. I did a internal done. Should put out at least 450 or more HP. I'm looking to get about 500 - 550 HP out of it on pump gas
