the turbo is a garrett GT3076R with an anti-surge compressor housing!

google will probably have a lot more information than i can think of.

Ryan

the turbo is the same as mine, Gt3076r with a .82 rear. On your stroker Ryan you should hope to see boost earlier than i will being a 2.0ltr.

This thing will haul ass when finished

Ditch the stainless fitting here if you dont want to corrode out everything around it ixnay. Stainless steel has a corrosive affect on less noble metals it's in contact with (ie aluminium). See here:http://www.assda.asn.au/index.php?Itemi ... &task=view
you would be much better off with some galvanised or mild steel fittings instead

On second thought it's a pretty small fitting compared to the surface area of the cylinder head so probably wont do much damage. so just ignore me :D

that was the plan

Wouldn't there be some kind of gasket preventing direct metal to metal contact so there would be no corrosion ??

yes but there are threaded studs connecting it to the head. As well as conductivity through the coolant.
