pumpngo New Member 24 Member For: 9y 11m 13d Posted 26/12/14 08:00 AM Share Posted 26/12/14 08:00 AM I've been searching to find specs on the ba , bf , and fg turbo .From my search it seems ba bf are the same and fg is said to be a smaller turbo by some . Others say the turbines are the same on all 3. comp 61.4-82 trim56turb 68-84 It seems that the ba is comp .7 ar and turbine 1.06 ar and the fg is comp .5 ar and 1.06 turbine.So from all my searching I think they are both the same turbo but the fg just has the smaller ar on the compressor.Any help on exact specs appreciated as I have found so much conflicting info. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fg spools quicker but runs out of puff approx 320rwkw after tune and supporting mods the f6 was fitted with the gt3540 hence more power more towards the 350rwkw region. Heaps of info on the forum if you look around don't know if this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pumpngo New Member 24 Member For: 9y 11m 13d Posted 26/12/14 10:13 AM Author Share Posted 26/12/14 10:13 AM It appears that the gt3576 fg turbo might be 76 comp as garett would imply but the ba turbo said to be gt3540 might be a gt3582 with 82mm comp and both might have the .5 ar housing. Would really like to know for sure from someone that has checked the sizes, as the huge amount of info on the net often conflicts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have 3" / 76mm outer diameter intake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you can do is use your fg turbo and put different compressor wheels/covers and make your own hybrid. That's what I'm doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
