GT35 but then you need bigger injectors.... i think.....

WHAT?! turbo broken.. for real? did it come with the motor?

I need a GT30.. maybe we can do a group buy 🙂

This is a tough choice for me as i have had a 30 and 35 , I loved the boosting from 2800rpm of the gt30 but we are all the same and you will want more eventually so the gt35 would be my choice for you ,Spool up from 3000rpm or so and full boost at about 5500rpm .If you only want road usage and not more then 450hp then the gt30 is great 8)
The price difference is small 😉

Im sure you have heard this all before but get what the application ( daily/track etc ) is needed .

what boost you doing to only get full boost by 5500rpm?

GT35R with .63A/R T3 will give u very little lag and great potebtial for more power. Much cheaper to buy a bigger exhaust housing if needed than a bigger turbo. 😉

If i set the the boost to 2.0 bar by mistake like i did on the way back from Saldahna it reached 2 bar at 5500-6000 rpm 😮 things were happening a little quickly to be 100% accurate 😂
@ 1 bar its full boost there i know for sure 8)

I want full boost from 4000rpm can this be done on a gt35?

Only going to be running about 1bar maybe 1.2

this just got very interesting, i was hoping you would change the turbo
so i can have an even better match to my setup

gona be one sweet RB25 setup

Whats those Gt3/35 go for

my power has just gone up R13500 - R15500

get ready Donny 🙂

Shane's GT35R has a .82 A/R T3, wich will give it more lag, .63 A/R will give u what u want. I had a T3 .63 A/R on a T66 on RB25, reached 0.7 bar at 3700 rpm, wich it was running at the time (265kw), GT35R has a better spool up, and smaller (T61 size) wheel.
As per dyno print, the lower flat torque curve was with T66 T3 .63 A/R.(RB25) Gave a very nice broad torque curve, very little lag for the size of the turbo. (that was the nicest turbo combo i ever had on a RB25 😀 )
