Hey guys I just bought a gtx35r with a 106 AR housing . How bad of a spool time you think ill receive? I have a 06 built with cams with a haltech stand alone
Do you think I should use a 106 AR housing ? For my almost 4.0 liter displacement ? Or should I put back on the .82 AR housing ? My hp goal is 600+ I've made 500 wheel on a gtx30/.82 AR why I had this turbo is because I guess when I purchased the powerlab kit from intense power they sold me a gt30 what was suppose to be a 35 which it isn't . Ordered a real gtx35 now I need advice please guys thanx. I can post pictures of both turbos for comparison to what powerlab sold me

 

you will get the best results if you just try both housings. its not that hard to swap on the PL kit.

On a T3 turbo, i'd just use the 1.06 but you never know until you try it.

 

Don’t waste your time with the .82 exhaust housing.

I had the .82 exhaust housing on my car; I essentially maxed out that turbo on pump gas (AZ 91) at 470whp… I recently upgraded to the 1.06 housing, going back to the dyno in two weeks…

A friend was running the 1.06 exhaust housing on his GT35R/PL kit and he made 52x on pump gas (stock exhaust too) and 600+ on E85.

I think the difference in spool will be less than 500 rpm too.

 

Why don't more Z guys look into the QSV from Sound Performance if worried about when they will start to spool?

 

It’s really not worth it on a T3 turbo, there’s hardly any lag on my setup.

 

So you received a gt30 from Intense Power and they made you buy a gtx35 instead of making it right? That's a lot of dough.

 

1.06 is a WAY better choice for a 4 liter setup than a .82. For 600hp that's the housing I would try first!

 

better then that why are people going full tilt with cams and crap if worried about spool. Stock cams will handle 600, I made that at 5200 through a slipping clutch and much bigger turbo.............and a 3.5L no reason shouldn't be able to do it with a 4.0 even with a slightly higher compression and tighter engine

 

Hurry up n get that monster running so we can run it!

 

nice turbos.

 

Would need to be a divided manifold/turbine housing

 

only turbine housing, divided manifold wont work with a qsv

 

Your right, was having a brain fart.

 

we all do sometimes =P
