thanks that helps alot! so basically I would be up for the $1700 and then like $600 to have my housing modded? ive seen a gt3540 with 15,000ks and already flapper and port mod, but im guessing that's with a ba housing which you sayd to stay away from McMattyp91

and the GTX already come with the port and flapper mod correct?

I thought I was going to have almost enough money to buy all the parts but I was surprised with not one, but three rego reminders in the mail the other day so there goes 3 grand from the budget so I will probably just keep saving and buy parts along the way I guess! sorry mate I have a decent idea about mechanics in general but I am pretty basic on turbo details.. so your saying that best idea is to use a different turbo and use my current rear housing? I emailed a guy about a gtx3582r and he sayd my stock rear housing would fit straight on, so that's basically my best bet?

and I forgot a walbro GSS340 fuel pump!

Hey guys pretty new on here so any help would be appreciated! ive tried to have a look around but cant seem to find an answer. I purchased a second hand G6et with 40,000ks on it 6 months ago and im starting to mod. I already have a stealth black stage 3 plazmaman cooler and a process west 4" race box (still need to buy the battery relocation and the other cooler pipes) my future plan was to buy: true trac diff oil line filter kit for turbo siemens vdo 80lb injectors 3.5" X force exhaust system with 4" dump was going to get these all fitted by a family friend mechanic then get a tune at Gentech (im in canberra) but the bloke there sayd the FG turbo can only take 320kw max and I could get 300-315 without the exhaust or dump (because they can cause overboost?) so I was thinking do I just save money and do as he says and see how it is then save up and do a second upgrade and tune, OR just do the exhaust and either buy a BA turbo with port and flapper mod, or a gtx3582r from the start with one tune instead of upgrading turbo later? and if both those turbos would be a hassle free direct fit and I wouldnt have to change anything else? any advice on those mods ^ ^ and they way I should go would be appreciated! thanks
