when it spools watch out though.

Dead Zen

im telling ya. also kinda high maintenance

fballman1987

how much oil you think it needs?

bigolred

get the gt3071r good turbo i poped my motor without the hanh mani but i went 396 for 2weeks before she went fast spool on that thing almost like the charger

Dead Zen

about a bag a month. ohhhh, dont forget to clean it regularly.

depends on how much boost you want to push.

hell a 16g can be pushed into the 380's

a 2876 will 400-420 real nice.

fballman1987

its got sludge?

yea seems like they may be the one im gonna get. i will probably not want to stay at 350 for long, lol. so this may be a good benchmark.

Dead Zen

i still vote 60 trim.

fballman1987

you first

06black

60 trims are weak sauce.

when you start talking 56 and 50 trim's then your starting to deal with real turbos.

T3/t4 50 trim is what I'm using. Full spin @ 3500. available 350whp. Tried tested and reliable.

I would suggest a Garrett or Turbonetics not an ebay one.

My votes for the GT3071R. Spools real fast and can crank out some serious power if you need it.

fballman1987

yea i was really thinking about that one, but i think im gonna go with the 2871r or the 2876r. maybe if i want to get adventurous ill get the 3071r down the line.

What exactly "should" a 3071r spool at on the LSJ vs the 2871/6R?

fballman1987

from a PM with Kennyspec he said the 2871 spools to 15lbs at around 3500rpms. the 3071 is a little larger so i would assume it would spool prolly around 3800-4000rpm, correct me if im wrong though.

siphon_78

let me know how your turbo project goes because i am in the same boat as you and same price range

fballman1987

def will do, ill probably do the normal build thread that you can check into, as soon as i get all the parts.

06black

the "30" series compressor wheel requires enough extra shaft inertia to slow spoll by 500-700RPM with the same 71mm turbine VS the "28" series wheel.

the difference gets larger and larger as your set up goes "wrong"

for example if your using a log manifold Vs a nice tubular unit and a non-flow directional wastegate (cause's lots-o-turbulance) VS one that is.

things like that.

also, dont forget that charge pipe routing and sizing plays a HUGE role in turbo "lag" 2.5in will spool quicker then 3in due to the lesser volume that the turbo has to fill. Also bends in the charge pipe has an effect as well. every 7deg of bend = 1 extra foot of the pipe the air "see's"

fballman1987

thats a lot of info right there. lol.

fballman1987

i think ive picked the turbo i want.

where are you guys generally getting your turbos from? shops on your areas or online, where?
i need to start a list of everything i need. any help would be greatly appreciated.
