Danny says it's like a GT35....but needed to be a hybrid of other smaller parts due to room constraints.
He calls it a "baby eater".......
apparently she's a big one!?

Default That is at least two turbo sizes larger than Nuge or Nathan's GT2871

depending on trim. GT2871R then GT30, then GT35.

Biggun, definitely need more RPM's for sure to take advantage, the 2.0l as well.

Default The stroker does help to bring boost at lower rpm, but >>

I do notice that full power hits >=5K, rather than 4.5K of my last turbo....which, I think< he said was mainly a KKK27 (?).
man...I'm not at all familiar with this stuff.

I do know that a set of side draft Webers on a TR^ benefit from 32mm venturis coupled with F11 emulsion tubes : )

Default Dude you are on the VERY min of that turbo for displacement! Is he sure??

min 2.0L max 4.5L!!!

my thoughts are it'd be better to have alittle smaller and broaden the power band. especially since a 2.0 can flow only so much air. meaning if you make say 475hp, get a turbo designed for 375-525hp not 400-600. DEFINATELY not knocking your whole set up, just thinking optimum.<ul><li><a href="http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/catelog/Turbochargers/GT35/GT3582R_714568_2.htm">http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/catelog/Turbochargers/GT35/GT3582R_714568_2.htm</a</li></ul>
