Garrett G-Series turbos
#76
Dont know what Garrett done wrong with the Gen 1 GTX3076R but its kind of "the flop" in that range of turbos. SURE it was capable of making alot more power than its older GT series brother but it was WAY laggier in comparison. So Hardly a good comparison especially with the .64 rear on it. Its a horrible mismatch.
Dont think the 660 has earnt any bragging rights unfortunately. Though rexies are a terrible plaform to judge a turbo off as everything is laggy on them haha!
Looking forward to seeing some evo results though. So good luck to the guys who have dropped their hard earnt on a G series as id like to hear just how they drive as the dynosheet only tells part of the story.

T4-Divided variant? Does this mean there is a twin-scroll version coming out?

Its still taking Garrett AGES to get off their dot and a develop a few more versions and get them on the market .
I'm guessing that there was a lot of old GTX stock out there and it isn't likely to move if better things are on the shelf next to them .
I'm sure plenty of people like me aren't going to touch dinosaur technology in the mean time , its probably just promoting BW sales .

I get a distinct impression there will be a flood of the larger options later this year, including but not exclusively the G30 range which will likely to be relevant to the largest amount of people's interests. Overall, so far the G-series hype has only legitimised how far ahead Borg Warner were with their EFRs - the G25 results so far do nothing to threaten Borg Warner imho.

That doesn't look at impressive for a 2.3L.

Nah. I just trolled the EvoX results and the closest power band was for a stock bottom-end Evo X with an EFR7670 - which was making slightly more power at 4000rpm than this. Suffice to say with all other things being equal that'd suggest that the EFR7670 on a 2.3 would be incomparable

On 2.0L the Precision 5858 spools only a touch slower (if at all) and makes over 600

The transient response is awesome, and everyone that drove the car at the shop loved how it felt on the street.

Indeed. Full boost was a bit sooner though, ~3700rpm. 100* temps in the dyno room definitely hurt. I think the .92 housing is too big, and I think this would have spooled much better in the smaller .72 housing. I also think the T4 divided variant, if/when it comes out, will be a significant improvement.
