Thats the actual turbo installed? Its not as big as I thought it would be!

 

are you kidding? That thing could eat baby jesus! haha, it does seem a bit smaller than a BW 80mm though.

 

yeh the comp cover is defo smaller than a bw, i wonder if you could use a garrett cover on a bw

 

lol

If the cover has enough material, it can be machined to fit. I know guys that use BW covers with Garrett wheels.

 

Damn, that thing moves a lot of air. It looks great in the car, can't wait to see some dyno results.

 

Its only a matter of time, I have sold several. I don't know if someone mentioned it, but I heard from Garrett that by early summer the billet Gt35R will be out. The wheels are going in for testing next month....

 

Thats good to hear. I heard it was going to be longer, maybe 6-12 months.

 

Looks like I have to put my laggy turbo back on for the DGRR . Or I guess I can buy a new turbine housing... meh.

thewird

 

So any updates on that build mate ?

 

The owner hopes to have it running in less than two weeks...

We're in the middle of putting on an Rx-8 too...

 

i gotta admit, 1Revvin7's job is very good. very precise. and above all which to me matters the most, a nice person to deal with

we gonna see in 2 weeks what that gtx-r can do...

 

bumping this thread... any action yet?

i'm thinking about getting one..

 

Man i need a billet wheel for my BW s475 turbo, ftw.... Can it be done?

 

$2500 is the cheapest i could find

 

For which one? i want the GT45 one.. :/

 

/\ THATS 3K

also i have a gt4202r and TIAL they said they could put a gt45 wheel in a gt4202r for $250 which is pretty cheap

 

3k in a turbo? i dunno if i can do that..

 

/\ thats just the wheel. dont forget the service to put it in if you dunno how


edit: dont mean to hurt anybodys business but titanmotorsports & miketurbo seem to be the cheapest

 

Not when you are at 800whp+ with a turbo that including all the modifications you've done to it (housing and 80mm option) amounts to around half of that...why change what isn't broke???

ya i already priced them out

i want 1000+ whp and i dont think i can do it with this turbo..

 

Did someone say, GTX4508R?

 

You can do 1000+whp on a GT4788 or GT4718 (same turbo, different name) which is available in journal bearing and it will still spool pretty quickly on a ported 20B and you can get it for under 2k in some instances.

My friend in PR has 1180+whp on a GT5593R or 91R bb turbo, cant remember, and at 26psi. so a GT4788 should do the job fine imo.

I'm just saying, you can reach your goals with half the money if you really want to...if you want the billet Garrett then great but I believe its doable for less. You could even go for one of the 87mm compressor BW which is basically the turbo you have now with a different compressor cover and a 87mm compressor. Don't know where to get it but I've seen them.

freaking hate you

ScorpionT, where do you live?...
