Slowxr6t Member 560 Member For: 5y 11m 6d Location: New zealand Posted 10/01/19 06:06 AM Share Posted 10/01/19 06:06 AM I can get a Garrett 3582 core and .70 comp housing to slot into the stock turbine housing for $1700nzd but there's no mounting hole or bracket on the .70 comp housing for the wastegate actuator. Does anyone know if it's possible to weld something on the housing to hold the actuator? I'm thinking if I could make it work it would be a relatively easy turbo upgrade. It would have a 6mm bigger compressor wheel and housing to suit. Anyone know how much more lag it will have? Opinions would be really appreciated Sorry I have a 15 fgx turbo, I didn't mention that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You use the same bracket and actuator from your stock turbocharger. The lag is only a couple of hundred rpm worse than the stock turbo, but requires you to be more "obvious" with your intentions to hit boost to get over the threshold.

It's not an overly complex thing to do, you just need the right tools (something to mount the housings so you can get the bolts out and appropriate spanners, essentially) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
