WEPN6T New Member 15 Member For: 10y 1m 25d Gender: Male Posted 25/12/14 07:01 AM Author Share Posted 25/12/14 07:01 AM thanks guys I am sort of leaning towards the GTX3582r because who knows what I will get up to next with the mods and I would like some room to move if I decide I want more out of the car, I have read some more info on the 3582 and the lag with the standard housing (modified) seems to be the go? Is this possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get a 61.4mm wheel (3582 wheel) into the standard fg turbo but does require machining however this spools quicker than a standard 3540 Long story short if it's a daily go a gtx3576 and Chuck some corn juice in it every now and again If it's a weekender than go a turbo like mine or the gtx3582 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will discuss this with my tuner and see what he thinks, thanks mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything over 380kw or so isnt doing your box any favours at all..So theres $5-6K IF u build it b4 it breaks.. and a transcooler and flex plate while your there another $1K..Add a tailshaft, $1300 IF u do it b4 it breaks.. and your probably gunna wanna do a TruTrac by then too $2K..Prob a set of billet oil pump gears another $500..And there ya go u have spent $10K and u havent even unleashed any more power..Ya can try tick too many boxes with these things at the same time unfort.. cause of the ease and cheapness of power to be made..Im pretty much where u are and it pays to be a bit on the conservative side IF u dont have a good bank backup.. :D 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey I got 400 on the stock turbo ( waste gate and port done) on 98. Edited 27/12/14 01:37 AM by arronm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But is a pain to mix. When I say 400 it was 396 actually. Edited 27/12/14 01:59 AM by arronm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
