Default How much is a GT30 roughly?!....

Been talking to a few people about this surge issue, as i am now running (well nearly ) a GT35.

Just wondered how much they are to buy? External waste gated version

cheers.

GT35 does not surge if you know how to spec a engine.

pete finish the car and IF theres problems then over come them. your engine has already run the numbers so talk to the man that built it. thats my advise. I'm sure even though you brought it built from the previous owner the builder would still offer his advise to you aswell.

Just asked him and he said there wasn't alot surge issues as the exhaust housing was about the middle one and the head has large ports, he thinks it's to do with the mapping

The Ł 895.00 is for the version that needs an external wastegate plus modified manifold/elbow/downpipe.......It get a bit expensive IIRC all in price (with proper Turbosmart 38mm w/gate) Ł 1,400 (approx).

The GT30's with internal w/gates are realy hybrids based on the GT28 using GT series family parts to create the one known as the "GT30".......at least that is my understanding from talking to Vince at Universal Turbos.

Edited:

Add VAT to all prices quoted
