My GT35/40 kit came yesterday. This is the one with the polished turbo housing, coated downpipe and wastegate dump back to DP.

The two turbos in the last 5 pics are GT35/40 & Greddy T-78.

Enjoy!

props to Badog for his pics!

BTW: You can blow into the exhaust housing of the GT35/40 and spin the turbo, you CAN NOT do that on the T-78.

*note to self* need to post a vid of a hot-a$$ chic blowing into the turbo making it spin...hehehe

what kind of port did you decide for that nocab? it seems like the turbo's not too big so a mild streetport would have been perfect for it.

I'm still waiting to hear back from Rob @ Pineapple on what he decided. He is the expert, not me.

He has all the turbo specs and I've sent him the dyno graphs of the GT35/40's that have been posted. I'm sure I'll be happy with whatever he chooses.

If I feel it isn't large enough, I've got a perfectly good 40k original stock motor I'm pulling out that I can send out to have rebuilt and monster street ported or racing ported...

Your going to need all the porting you can get to beat me

The compressor looks a bit bigger than the T-78 and the turbine housing looks smaller. What size is the compressor and turbine wheels? The T-78 is roughly a 66mm compressor wheel... about the same as a T-66. What A/R is the exhaust? Is it a P or Q trim? Just curious...

Looks sweet!

Jim: The exhaust on mine is the 1.06. I do not know the trim or compressor wheel size...Jason do you have the rest of the specs on this turbo kit? I feel like a dumbass not knowing... !

ummm, I'm not going to need any porting to beat you until you stop being a p*ssy and turn the boost up beyond 5psi...hehehe

nah, i doubt the porting's gonna be too small. w/ a small turbine like that you don't wanna advance the timing too much. that turbo's gonna make good power down low, why kill it w/ a large port? does anyone sell a straight up gt40, that would seem to be very similar to a t78 but w/ duall bb.

Kyle the turbo looks good! Can't wait to put on and see what this bad boy can do.

nocab, why dump the wastegate back into the dp, what does that do?

less noise

wptrx7

so it has nothing to do with performance?

Technically a "teeny" bit less power, but much, much quieter. An Open Wastegate sounds almost like Open Header - Loud.

Some people like it that way.

Where did you get your turbo kit at? And how much horsepower do you expect to the wheels?

oooooo...pretty.

glad to know somebody's car is working; my clutch went out last weekend, so my car is in the shop having the clutch master cylinder replaced. doh! maybe one day i'll have this thing in good working order!

Domestic: several ppl have put down over 400rwhp @ 15psi. I'll shoot for 450 @ 16psi (street) and 500+rwhp @ 20+psi on race gas... ported motor from pineapple plus all the boltons
