Changing The Turbo To A Gt 3540 In A Fg Xr6 Turbo

Camo 86t

So by change the billet wheel do u mean u just changed the blade to a 3540/3582 and leave your core in??

Change the compressor wheel over from the cast 6+6 to an 11 blade billet

That's what I have as well

Standard core mate

If you want a gtx3582r

You can buy a .7 cover and 11 blade billet wheel for your existing core and turbine if you want to do it on the cheapish

Just like Matty says

He put me onto it

Obviously front cover has to be changed to std 3540/3582 cover

Ok that is exactly what I was thinking of doing. So do u need to get the core balanced after u change the compressor wheel?

Where r u located..? MTQ in Wetherill pk balanced my whole setup for a pretty good price

that's what I thought Mattyp.

I cant find 11 blade wheels that are genuine garrett.

I found some on ebay that are balanced like a mamba and a kinugara do u think these co.pressor wheels will b alright and if I wanted to get the gtx housing do u think I have to use garrett or will a different front housing do with the same specs?

My wheel is a Kinugawa so is mattys

Im in maribyrnong. Is MTQ in laverton?

[vince01_01]

And I live in Melbourne

[camo86T]

Not sure mate I'm in Sydney

but google tells me they are in laverton and dandenong

spoilt for choice then

Lucky you.

Go for a cruise soon camo and show Em how good this budget turbo is

I reckon it would cost around 600 to upgrade the cover and wheel and have it balanced all up. But that's with you fitting it yourself

[camo86T]

its pretty good I reckon!

At the moment doesn't come on as hard straight away as when my baby 76 was wound up to 19lb but Joe said he fed in the boost fairly gradual to save the clutch

Screw that, when he tweaks 98 tune and does eflex tune I think I'll ask him to punch it in, clutch will have to suck it up

Right now actually feels really similar to my mate's tuned GS - 395rwkw - just keeps pulling, really linear

[MattyP]

I've noticed abit of lag but it's a brilliant turbo

But you'll have to get a massive clutch for your ethanol tune. Trust me you'll blow through your current one so fast

What about a GTX3576 wheel into a stock GT3540 turbo?

Good mix up or terrible idea?

[MattyP]

Wouldn't work mate :(

And garret don't sell individual wheels
