Where from and how much usually?

About a grand i would of thought?

 

Martoooooooon?????

 

Anywhere else?

 

lots of places to buy a gt30,do a search?

 

dont you want to use martin?

i bet he's pretty dam cheap

 

Didnt say that, just wanted to know if anyone else knows of a place doing good deals on this turbo?

 

Try a Garrett T3 60-1.

Standard oil journaled turbo. No fancy ball bearings.

Just help mine make 380bhp.

Can be had much cheaper than Ł600 quid too.

 

Much cheaper?

What exhaust housing did you use to gain 380bhp

 

.48

You'll need an external wastegate on it though.

 

Did you use a tial gate? What size 38mm?

 

Best to send the compressor maps off to your engine builder and see what they say Maps are available on the net freely if you search.

I was going to go for a .63 - but was advised to go for a .48.

 

Yep 38mm Tial.

 

Ah, ok. Thanks the info mate, you've been a big help

 

Why use a 550bhp turbo if you not even got 400bhp?

ATP in the states are good for them too, about 700notes plus shipping, texes, etc etc, so if you can get em for a grand UK, may as well pay that.

wasnt talking to you, no idea what car you on about, never mind power.

 

Just saying, you always got somthing to say.

 

& most of it is shit hot info

 

it was a valid question, with the usual bad attitude reply from you

 

I aint even gunna go there. Never mind.

 

PMSL, it WAS a valid question though


why have a car that is aa big laggy, when you can get a turbo to suit your own needs and have a "sorted" car

if thats acrap


i heard t88's are fooking awesome

 

Why make it sound like your dissin the guy. He's made 380bhp!

Turbo seems to be working well for him

 

Got mine from Turbo Dynamics mate, im running internal wastegate though. Speak to Matt there he is very helpfull indeed.



You need to set in your mind and also in spec of your engine what power you want to achieve. It is vital that all compnents are suited.

I made this problem on my last engine - still went well but was not a perfect match.

Wicked Cheers Mate

 

it's how ya reading it

but if he had turbo spec'd to his engine and needs, i bet the car would drive MUCH better

 

This is why i said 'you'll need to speak to your engine builder'. Just slinging on a Turbo and crossing your fingers is possibly the easiest way to through good money away.

I'm hoping that i'll pass 400bhp on the final map, i wanted a turbo that could support more boost than i currently run. I also had the block fitted with nikasil liners to support more power and reliability in the future.

PS: The T3/60-1 (and spec of) was chosen between both me and the engine builder.

There sure is a load of hate on this board...

 

The compressor map must suit the engine, i cant highlight that enough mate....

Basically choose what engine you want, what you intend to use it for, what power you want, revs etc. then choose a turbo that will cope with all of the formentioned

 

yeah the thread starter

 

Cor blimey gov - ya all sat in ya mickey talking a load of ole jackson.

this ole china is mustard ....

You lot on the Stella tonight or what

 

You can buy a turbo from me even though you made it clear that you thought my new car was shite on a previous post, business is business!

 

Billy: Have a look at the Fast Ford Tech PDF's (i think there was a link in here not long ago) it gives the basics on matching a turbo and how to interpret the compressor maps.

Then give your engine builder a call and chew the cud for a bit.

There are literally loads of turbos that could possibly be used and all will give varying results on your engine spec.



It really is imperative to talk to your engine builder.

 

You mean the one asking for advice. Not crap

 

Thanks mate, will do

 

I never said i thought your car was shite! Its not.

 

Billy what engine are you intending on running this on and what power would you want to achieve.

 

 

2.1 ZVH 280-300bhp? Roughly.

Wasnt really thinking of how much power, more on the way its delivered.

 

 

Not interested

 

A gt30 would be far to big for that engine mate i would look at a gt28 turbo for that kinda power, could possibly even run a t3 with .64 exhaust housing, im not an expert here but defo a gt30 too BIG..
