garrett GT3071r (WG) good upgrade for greddy turbo kit??
#3
The stock Greddy flows about 40lbs/min (at the edge of its efficiency curve) at 15psi and the 3071 flows 45 . So it is a reasonable upgrade . Another 35 whp realistically.
However the renesis itself flows more like 53lbs/min at that pressure so the 3071 will be overextended to keep up if you want t make more than 300whp. The thing to do is to see if Garett will modify the 3071 for you and fit a 76mm compressor wheel .
If you only wanted an extra 35whp , a much cheaper/easier option would be to fit a 20g wheel into the Greddy turbo.

Well if it is upgraded tto a 3076 then you have just scored yourself the perfect turbo for the job. Would appreciate it if you would measure it when you get it and post the intake size .
I did hear that you can't rebuild those turbos easily so I hope it is in good condition.

Rebuild easy.
The person say only have 5,000milles. no shaft play. but i have friend rebuild for me for 250.00. but i will try to upgrade to the turbo with new aluminum Compressor Wheel.

Hell, that's a great deal for 250$!
I have the same turbo from MM, one thing I would really recommend is to leak test the turbo itself, mine was leaking due to a missing backplate to compressor housing oring.
While its apart, please measure it and post results.. I was going to but sadly forgot >_>

do turbos normally have a oring there. I've seen a few photos with them, but most ive seen do not have them. Including the brand new one I just got during a rebuild from comp turbo.

Would be great with a short- list from you experienced guys with turbos that is (or you firmly believe)good for this application. And with some remarks. I try to keep educated, but its a jungle. For example:
T618Z(Stock Greddy)
Expect: 260-280WHP. Pressure 5-10psi(?)
Pros: Minimal lag, good low end and midrange. Reach full boost at 3-3500RPM
Cons: Limited top end, torque start decreasing at 7000RPM
Remarks: Aux ports must be blocked
T04E-57 trim
Expect: 300 - 320WHP. Pressure 7-14psi(?).
Pros: Maybe the best compromise for a daily driven setup. Similar response, low and midrange to T618Z, but with some more top end(?)
Cons: Still limited top end, torque start decreasing at 7500RPM(?)
Remarks: Aux ports does not have to be blocked. Direct replacement(?)

Yeah, I would believe so.. Mine was leaking like the devil without it. Just boost leak test the turbo itself and see if you need it.
