gt30 compared to t34 .55
i have a bit of a dilema going on so here goes
i have a gt 30 roller bearing turbo with external wg and i also have a t34 currently running a .48 exhaust housing i am looking for a genuine 400 atw hp so question is am i better running the gt30 as it will make the power at lower boost levels and will be less stressed ??/
would a t34 make this power realistically ??
am i better off sellingthe pair and getting a t38??
advise and options please
regards Ian
ps this is 2wd sapph

T34 WILL not make 400ATW fella, stick with the GT30 if that's your goal..........
What is your exact Spec??

T34.48 will make 380HP all day long, so with a .55 or .63 housing it would easily make 400.

T34's never make big power, i've yet to see a genuine one at 400ATF - So to get 400ATW you are looking at 472ATF which ain't going to happen, even with a T38 you'd have to have alot of goodies and a good map

As said ATW not a hope, defo needs to be bigger, maybe just a decently mapped car is all you need, even 400 at the fly is a hell of a fast car in a cossie shell.

get a T38 and your car will see 400bhp
mines running T38 , headwork, bd14 cams and greys and it made 400bhp with ease
upping the boost next time too see more ! a GT30 is an awesome turbo tho !
