G6E Turbo replacement????


molch

Recommended Posts

the one in the link above is only slightly bigger @ 62.5mm so id say stage 2. A 66mm would be on par with a T04Z in the factory location though

 

Edit:- confirmed T04Z is .5mm bigger below than a stage 3 66mm rebuild

 

Compressor wheel: 66.5/84 mm

stage 33 66mm wheel can go in a modded 3" housing or go for a .7 4" 66mm is 5mm oversize and is good for 500wkw if you want to rebuilt a standard turbo otherwise kinugawa/mamba are great value for money but might cost a little more in the end with mods to exhaust etc if you go a full turbo..

 

both good options

Thanks for all the responses guys.. So many options that's it's hard to make a final decision.

 

What mods to the exhaust are required for the Mamba bolt on turbo? 

 

Also so who do you guys recommend for a rebuild if I go down that path? 

 

also I am 99% sure I'm going to get CMS to do the tune.

whats the end game of the car? power figure?

 

the mamba linked above has a V band rear housing so you would either need to change the housing or get a new dump pipe fabbed.

 

nick from RE in melbourne would be good. He does rebuilds for about $950 - $1500 and will ship it back to you with new studs and ceramic coating free of charge

Ok gotcha. So the the gtx 3584r from mamba had the standard bolt rear housing so that's the winner.

I think I'm leaning this way, now just need to decide if I go the bigger housing. Will pm him and see if it changes the pricing much. Then I just need to worry about a single silicon intake pipe from the relocated intake... 

 

The turbo spool up was already pretty noisy, can't imagine it louder with a 4" intake.

that's a direct bolt on. No need to change it unless you really want a 4" inlet but already has an A/R7 housing just with the 3" inlet

 

 

Compressor Housing Inlet OD: 3” / 76.2mm

 

Compressor Housing Outlet OD: 2” / 51 mm

 

Compressor Housing A/R: .70

 

Turbine Housing A/R : 1.05

Dodgy advert! Anyway I messaged him last night asking if he will mate it to a 4" inlet with 0.7 a/r. Waiting response. 

 

I think today ill book in CMS and a day off work for the trip down in a couple of weeks.

If your going to cms, chat to them before buying anything. They will give you lots of good options that they can make work.
