Bronze Donating Members 690 Member For: 14y 13d Gender: Male Location: gold coast Posted 22/01/13 03:38 PM Share Posted 22/01/13 03:38 PM Im about due for a new turbo as well. What is needed to change the standard turbo on a BA to a GTX3582r? I have found plenty for sale, most without housing. What size turbine housing would I need?Your stock exhaust housing will bolt straight on. You will need to change your hotside piping as the stock outlet is 2 1/4" and the GTX is 2 1/2". You will also need to change intake pipe as the GTX has a 4" intake compared to the stock 3". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have the Turbo in now and car is going awesomely thanks to ben and unclewal for putting me onto him anyway moral of the story is if your Turbo is shagged no matter where you live, seriously consider sending it to ben at pro charge. Thanks for the tip unclewal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Sweet! good to know you did the right thing OP and are happy. It's annoying but sometimes spending a slight bit more money gets excellent results and service.
