eff xr6t Member 569 Member For: 11y 7m 22d Posted 20/08/17 12:06 PM Share Posted 20/08/17 12:06 PM Waste of time changing housings IMO. Recently changed my mates car from 6266 .84 t4 divided put a 67mm front wheel on it and a 1.15 rear in t4 divided thought it would loose 500rpm of response but from what I can tell in testing has little to no change at all. Wasn't the best car for testing the change as we put a lower comp built motor in it and a very large ported head on at the same time but even then it has less comp bigger turbo on both compressor and exhaust thought it would have to loose response but from what I've tested max 1-200rpm different to previous. These are big cube 6cyl motors choking them with small housings doesn't help. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/92972-general-turbo-chat/page/5/#findComment-1643893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffwagon Gold Donating Members 16,348 Member For: 10y 3m 23d Gender: Not Telling Posted 21/08/17 04:52 AM Share Posted 21/08/17 04:52 AM The reason I was asking is because my turbine housing has more cracks than a 10 storey brothel and will need replacing within the next year or so and I have a .82 housing and ext gate in the shed not being used. I think it might be alright at lower power levels but then I may as well just use a smaller compressor and get it all happening much sooner. I heard from a reputable source that Garrett is bringing out their gen3 range of turbos next year with redesigned wheels so I might hold out and get a new housing and turbine wheel then. Perhaps there will be a new internal gate housing available then which will make it all too easy.

Just a dump/cat/exhaust will make it laggier. Forgot to say I had the stock turbo with supporting mods and a 320rwkw tune. Expand Sorry to bring up an old post, did you need to change the factory clutch at that power level?
