T38 turbo's

Externally they share the outline to a T34, it is internally that they are different.
Obviously those people with engine dynos can experiment until they get the perfect match of exhaust / compressor trim
. Other companies can only supply what they "think" is going to work...

UT T38 looks exactly as a T34 but with enlarged internals.
TT T38 is the larger variant, would be no good on a standard head or with small head porting as would suffer surging issues.
both good turbo's if matched ideally for there aplication.
mine was a UT T38, span up and came on boost almost identically to the T34.63 i had previously but could deliver more boost if required and had no problems holding further up the rev range.
Had mine hitting 36psi by 3400rpm (ish) and had no problems holding that 32psi almost to the redline
HTH a little

You might as well use a new, highly efficeint injector than a 20 year old grey fuel tap.

COMEDY DAN, nicely done then mate, im only going by my own personal experiences - what friends have encountered and what we have gathered from several tuners who supply the T38's along the way.
Jase, from personal experience - with the UT T38 & Greys etc you should stil hit 400bhp on the standard head, or atleast not be to far off of it.
(just my opionion!)

just wish you'd gone out in mine before i took it apart now, its the exact way you seem to want to go.
would have been an ideal way to know what you'd get.

Maybe not neccesarily the siemens injectors, but any high impedance injector eems to be the way forward at the mo instead of the greys.
dependant on your chosen tuners choice

Also been speaking to someone regarding a well mapped T34 -light blue's set up. As it would be a was to run a T38 Greys half cocked!!

Deffo a grey area here then........
Wondering if going down the T34 route with light blues would be a better option.
I know my engines getting on a bit but havent got the bucks for a nice Harvey built lump & cant see the point of replacing my engine till it goes tits up!
But i do need a little more power..............
Talk about a Catch 22!!
