I had to. my stock turbos started leaking (common issue for Gen 1 EcoBoosts apparently).
Now when I hit the gas at 70 to pass an 18-wheeler, it's all pedal man. She just keeps giving.
You might of seen my thread about my blown turbo. I'm almost certain my Garrett GT28RS Turbocharger is blown and looking into possible replacements. This is the specs on this one. It flows nice and was really good for my current setup.
12k+ miles later and the turbo is working great, with a single caveat. Every so often I will get some turbo surge under WOT high boost conditions.
The turbocharger that APR uses is an actual Borg Warner unit that they modify the housing on. We never have to do any modifying of the APR K04 or the downpipe when installing them.
They do.
I have 40k on my car (30k on stage 2) and it's flawless.
They are a good bit larger then the gt2871r you've been running. The twin scroll version- probably not much more lag then you've already got. Just an extra 200 hp.
i love my gt3071 v2 billet blade upgraded by arnold at pagparts.com i also have arnold's .72 a/r exhaust housing... and i rev out to 7800rpm... it pulls great
Somedays I wish I went with a 30series, but so far very happy with my gtx2867. Sure it could be the bigger gt30, but am happy with my lil gtx.
Fantastic looking turbo, never looked into them before. The map is slightly inferior to the GTX2867R's map though.
