  1. Do you have the graph from the 98 tune ??
  2. That's for that ratter I tried searching the part number on garret / Gcg and nothing came up
  3. Got the actuator off part number ended in -17 and had another one that ended in -7, both Garrett items.... On my bench they both opened at 15psi but the -17 was far smoother and had a much longer stroke, the spare -7 I had kind of didn't creep just sprung out suddenly like it was sticky and then didn't really open much So I put the -17 back on Adjusted the pac performance "bolt on" bracket for a more direct action - was also there -7 actuator that was rubbish Then got some guidance from the legend that is wombat bellend and made the port on the housing even larger and smoothed out all the inner radius, stripped another exhaust stud once everything was together on retorque Pulled it all back off - sump to oil return gasket tore Ford had just closed Autobahnzzz, super cheap and repco and auto one spare parts people all looking at me like an alien when asking for the gasket I needed Bought some gasket paper and made my own Heli coil in the head Put together Drove to autobahn Bought sausage at sausage sizzle Bought boost gauge Installed in car park aka hose from engine bay through bonnet, routed through window into cab and gauge sitting in lap 200km /h in 4th on private road boost gauge in one hand No over boosting Thank you bellend Dyno tomorrow
  4. Okay it did have a part number on it I'll check tomorrow when I pick it up
  5. And yeah 1/2 hole is what it's set too
  6. This is supposed to be the genuine garret 11.8 psi item that's what I ordered and what the receipt says
  7. Was on dyno today briefly, under boosting sorted, now over boosting issue with new turbo/housing/wastegate Dialed in 17psi would make it until 3800 then 20psi by 5000 till red line I bench tested the actuator would open at 15psi on any preload setting, I set the preload to about 3mm used to compressor to push rod onto waste gate, which was the least preload to make the valve not spin on the housing when I tried. Could still move the actuator rod by hand if hanging off it, way easier than the turbo smart set up But I read they use much less preload than the turbo smart part. The flapper valve is a 38mm item and we ported it slightly smaller than previous housing to try keep some more meat to prevent cracking this one. Does it sound like I set the actuator up right ? Good chance I'll have to pull off housing and open port up some more ? It was d-shaped like shown on here. Guess I'll be in shed all weekend But it did make 400rwkw on 98, reduced timing 17psi building to 20. Which is a start haha

    Those results would only seem 10-20kw tops more than gtx35s on same boost/fuel

    Jet look on the pac performance site or the xr6 turbo developments site , they are the only two places I know selling them complete, Gcg will just be selling the supercore - you'd have to machine your rear housing to accept it
  10. awesome effort mate that is massive power for the street, and pretty low boost to get there - must have some room left in it
  11. Wasn't the tuners fault - last tuning session cut short due to a boost issue/mechanical problem so tuned best we could - got bored one day and started this thread - got some good advice and found the problem, always wanted the bigger turbo and once the 76 sold the swap cost me a couple hundred plus the tune, car was apart and had to retune anyway was kind of two birds one stone.
  12. Yeah I'm not saying it's bad - I wanted the power to shift higher In the revs, the 76 fell over to early for MY liking
  13. Picture of the bay yesterday after installing the gtx3582 dropped it off for a tune this morning on 98. Initial thoughts - this thing is quiet and wasn't feeling much torque under 3000rpm - mind you was only cruising to the workshop.
  14. That's common if your port job is dodgy Fitted the new set up today - hopefully tuned tomorrow or Friday
  15. Paint them black ? why would you hide brembos.... Pretty sure everyone that paints their standard brakes does so because they wish they had brembos
