I am also considering the same turbo as it is my daily... and I was told (can't remember from where though) that the new precisions have gone through a massive amount of R&D and reliability as improved drastically compared to the old ones... don't quote me on that though lol

Couldn't help it :nudie:

Have you looked at the Borg Warner turbos. 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.

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!!!

That was on the run in.

My mistake. It was 22psi.

Haven't looked into the Borg Warner's tbh + if there more exxy I don't think ill venture that ave. anyways.

Are the gtx's laggier than the standard turbo???

Also are the new precision units water cooled?

Some say they are not but from my bum seat they definately are laggier and from other testimonials that I have read support this.

I swapped from a cast genuine GT 3582 wheel to a billet copy of the GTX wheel. 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.

Get your ass into my car man and I'll show you first hand.

You might even be able to crack the fabled "4ths" with the GTX ;)

I think most people who are looking at the precision have their cars as daily were you kinda need that instant response.. 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

There watercooled, they run a different center then the air cooled units, but they are still ceramic bearing.
