There seems to be alot of R&D put into those turbos.Borgies would be the best of both worlds but they are dearer again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vevapower Waiting for the 1st N/A 12! Donating Members 2,533 Member For: 16y 8m 30d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 05/01/14 10:46 PM Share Posted 05/01/14 10:46 PM I went a GTX35. I was told by my tuner it would come on full boost about 500rpm later than the precision.Refer to my signature. I was happy with the end result.Got a dyno sheet Mes?Amazing result making 533 on 20lbs!Most tuners need at least 22+ just to crack 500!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the gtx's laggier than the standard turbo??? Also are the new precision units water cooled? Edited 06/01/14 02:12 AM by Kroozin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same everything else. The GT wheel has alot more get up and go at light throttle.Precisions billet wheel boosts earlier than the GTX wheel cause of its 6+6 blade design but it must perform better than the stock cast GT 6+6 wheel cause they have taken alot more meat out of the centre of the wheel plus maybe other tweaks that you can do with billet. And they may have also picked up some top end flow with those tweaks but I wouldn't think to the point of matching the flow of a GTX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying the gtx is laggy at all but I'm after the punch of the stock turbo and the power of the gtx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also are the new precision units water cooled?There watercooled, they run a different center then the air cooled units, but they are still ceramic bearing.
