XtRmn8 570Nm @1800rpm Donating Members 2,441 Member For: 21y 1m 26d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 20/09/13 02:03 AM Share Posted 20/09/13 02:03 AM I am keen to fit a full exhaust to mine before tune time as from what I have seen and been told there is a benefit in having the ability to make a lot more torque. This will require for me to pull the GT3576r and get a port, flapper and actuator done. While the turbo is off I would be happy to do the wheel upgrade for a bit more top end.

You would have the screamer to deal with though and plumbing that back would add to the cost though :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratter Member 6,793 Member For: 18y 5m 21d Gender: Male Location: @ my laptop Posted 20/09/13 02:52 AM Share Posted 20/09/13 02:52 AM IH8TOADS Here's an example of what I understand to be an initial first run E85 tune (which appears to have previously been a 98 tune) which shows more boost early does not equal more torque early. In this case the boost on ramp up was slower with E85 and yet torque was higher/or no worse coming onto boost. Possibly due to more timing and earlier due to the use of E85 as indicated in my earlier post. Hence why IMO I would step up to a bigger turbo when using E85. this is from 2 different cars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fehlbie Donating Members 142 Member For: 15y 7m 16d Posted 21/09/13 11:32 PM Share Posted 21/09/13 11:32 PM Just my two cents worth. I was considering the gtx3576 and the gtx3582. I ended up getting the gtx3582 and I am very happy with how responsive it is. I drive a manual fg xr6 turbo and there is no discernible difference between the gt3576 and the gtx3582 in lag. And it pulls like a train. I am making 345 rear wheel kilowatts at 3400 rpm. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
