2L - Turbo choices?

[blu3gsR]

I've got the old FP hta86 definitely not the quickest spool but when it kicks in you know about it. Got 317kw @ 25psi. Not on an evo but still 2L

I've only got 220kw an run consistent mid to low 11's but it has undergone a lot of weight removal.
All depends on your setup as to how much power you will need to run a 12 an how good you can pedal the car

Garret gt3076x. Serial turbo, 0.63 rear housing, full boost at 3500rpm. Dual ball bearing, will literally be turning over 1 min after the engine has stopped. 25psi cap and still making power at 9k rpm. $1650

yeah that something that got me with my gt3071 switch off the engine and you can hear the turbo spinning down

Yeah I have been in Holset and 20g setups and they are good,but just not there.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the feedback.

Cant seem to find a site that sells that GT3076x turbo though. Recommedations? Is it a bolt on? Ie to a FP style manifold?

As a complete solution, the FP series (ie turbo + manifold) seems to be pretty good bang for buck and easy to install.

Sorry GTX3076r. They are a T3 flange so they won't mount to an Fp manifold.

If the goal is only 12.0, the Evo III 16G will take you there. I ran 12.39 at 21 psi on the Evo I 16G with a garbage tune. At full steam well-tuned with a good setup, the E3 turbo gets it done.

Interesting feedback guys!

Didn't think it was possible to get a stock E1/2 or E3 16G turbo to a flat 12

My buddy just ran a 12.4 in Alberta Canada in a big 16g @ 18lbs boost and his only other mods are a hks rs intake, full 3" exhaust, and Evo 8 springs and retainers, and 264 cams. So if you are at sea level that is easily a 11 sec car.

A 16G has gone 10s in a (heavy) DSM. Granted, it was auto and English Racing's shop car, but 11.99 is cake for a fully set up EIII 16G.

Edit: they've also gone 9s on a HTA68 (billet wheel Evo III 16G).

If it's a street car and you want a stock appearing turbo, I would go a FP 68HTA.

Thanks guys. Appreciate the feedback!

Thanks guys. Appreciate the feedback!

Hi EvoOne, which turbo did you go with?

Hi EvoOne, which turbo did you go with?

Waiting for some cash before I buy the turbo and take the car off the road.

Seems like an FP is the way to go though.
