EOI Oldies turbo & manifold
Posted: Thu Jan 10, 2013 3:50 pm
I may be upgrading to a BB turbo and am considering selling my existing turbo and manifold.
The mani is custom steampipe with a 40mm gate all to suit a T3 split pulse /divided turbine housing.The turbo is basically a plain bearing GT35 size
The hotside is AR84 with a 60mm exducer
the turbo was put together by Lee Thomas and the compressor has a 61.4 mm inducer and is having new bearings fitted ATM
Hope to be able to get no 2 son to post pics next week
This combo has put out app 330 hp atw along with 585nm tq atw on a conservative Mainline dyno on an ultra safe 18 psi boost ( add 10% if it was a DD dyno)
Steve E was taken for a squirt recently so he may be willing to give his impression as to how this combo drives :)
When I removed the turbo I found that the boost control to the WG had come a bit too close to the dump so was not boosting the best when Steve was a passenger :( Normally breaks traction at 5000 in 2nd gear :D
PS IT was built for driveability and power under the curve so boost doesn't come on like switching on a light
