Turbocharger BorgWarner or Garrett
Hey, so I recently bought a Garret GTX4202R and some Mace cams for my 2010 Camaro RS. I'm already planning on a getting a spec clutch to handle the new power, but I can't find a kit to build the 6 speed Aisin.
I went g25 660. It is pretty incredible the power they deliver for how small they are.
I have it on my 180sx, it's a great little turbo, spools quick. although I'm only running 300hp which I'm pretty happy with.
I have the 2867 and it’s such a good turbo. I have no complaints
I have a 2876r on my kat and it spools amazing. Pull boost by like 3500 probably. Not laggy and comes in nice. Butt dyno is like 250 on 8 psi right now.
I had a 2871r on mine and loved it. It was a dog below 4k on motor alone, but it made 400 at the tires. On the bottle with 50hp jetting it was a different animal and made close to 500. It ran like a raped ape with that combo. 20+psi at 2500 no problem
Yes, its great! Off the bat the car has a bit more character, the exhaust note has a slightly different tone to it, you get more pop and crackle on the shifts and you hear more turbo noise. The powerband is smoother, stock it seemed peaky and fell off a bit towards redline, with this setup it just keeps pulling much harder. Overall, totally worth it!
Around 82k I went with a full gtx3071r... My car now has 110k and still runs like a champ. I drive it hard. I roll race it. I take it to the drag strip. It’s seen countless rolling antilag and NLS. Never a days problem never even a CEL in its life. I’d drive it anywhere
Fantastic looking turbo, never looked into them before. The map is slightly inferior to the GTX2867R's map though.
They are indeed extremely fragile, the stock CKRA BorgWarner turbo is not reliable and will blow. Its just a question of when not if
