They can use a gt37 housing with 66mm wheel and ceramic bearings. They have seen 650rwhp with this combo on pump fuel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You definitely don't need to upgrade to a GT37 or 66mm wheel to get 485kW (650hp) out of a Barra motor on E85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am explained that to them and this was the recommendation from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 66mm turbo would do it easier, in this case. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigMoscow Member 45 Member For: 8y 8m 1d Posted 13/06/16 06:02 AM Author Share Posted 13/06/16 06:02 AM I can only go with what I have here. Speaking to per4manz, they seem to know what they are talking about. I've delt with them in the past (be it a long long time ago) and had good results. We have two main turbo rebuilders here in Perth. One has very bad reviews from tuners and these guys seem to be getting good results. I know people are saying that cam shafts are a waste of time at my power levels but the more I read about the benefits the more I am tempted to drop them in.

Who's tuning it? It probably wouldn't hurt to discuss turbo selection with them? Gt37 is a pretty old school wheel design. Have you looked into the GTW series from Garett?

BigMoscow Member 45 Member For: 8y 8m 1d Posted 13/06/16 07:49 AM Author Share Posted 13/06/16 07:49 AM I will most likely use xtremefordtuning for tuning of the car. Most of the install will be done by me and two mechanic friends. The only thing that will be done by the shop is the cams if I end up going that way. I am told that cams will help the exaust leaving the chaimber and cylinders filling up quicker. Some people claim power gains just by changing cam shafts and re-tuning. without adding any extra boost. I know th engines are world apart but cam shafts worked a miracle on my GTR. Turbo wise, I cant give the exact specs from what I understand (three worst words in tuning), The housing is gt37 with a brand new billet wheel and ceramic bearings. This aparently will give me more then enough airflow and will spool just as well as the stock turbo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
