ive got a few questions for you guys, ive got a garrett GT3582R turbocharger its Ball bearing and water cooled..i got a smokin deal on it so i think what ever money i put in it ill come out still under the new cost...im having a hard time trying to find online sources for a new exhaust turbine wheel...maybe even an intake wheel as it has a few flaws as well..ill see what yall think

here is a pic of the wheel, i think it ate something once in its life. still spins free and smooth so what im wondering is if i should let it be or would it completely be out of balance?




what concerns me tho is that the PO of the turbo said it was all balanced just a few weeks before i bought it ( he sold because he traded in vehicle and would get more $$$ in its stock form) so maybe was it balanced with the eaten up fins?? what would you guys do?

also on the exhaust housing it will have the PSD style uppipes so would the divided twin scroll be a better option then the undivided? i was looking at the divided T4 with a 1.06 ar...any thoughts on that? or just keep my smaller t3 undivided?

thanks for any help

here are some pics of it

 

get a new exhaust wheel and housing with a T3 or T4 twin scroll.

Find a garrett dealer.

 

he took it off cause he leaned it and cooked that wheel, no legit shop would balance that assy.

If you can wait till I come up and get the kit, I would love to research that out for you, just no time till then.

 

ok perfect im in no real hurry

 

yea, i think it would explode if you spooled that turbo up, that's a pretty good chunk for something that spins that fast.

 

yea very true wonder how exactly it happened

Garrett Turbine Housing,T4 Divided V-Band 1.06 AR GT35R | eBay ??

 

what size wheel fits in there?

I would like to see a 71mm wheel in your charger.

 

the wheel size that fits it would be the 68mm wheel...having the same problems finding bigger wheels for it along with the stock one


wait what about these...would any of these work?

I don't know a whole lot about the Garretts, just the BorgWarners.

That being said, a 70mm wheel would probably be decent.

I would call ATP tomorrow.

 

Ok here is what I think

70mm turbine wheel.

.70A/R non-gated exhaust housing. I would prefer T3 twin scroll, but if they only come in T4 then that's that.

Ok, buy the stuff!

 

i would check with alamo turbo in the kent valley delt with them a couple times and was very happy and price was not bad

 

.70 ar? i can find the t3 twin with 1.06, .82 , .72 and .63 wouldn't i want the highest one? im not really sure how that whole aspect ratio thing works

here is some different info on the turbine flow for it http://www.owendevelopments.co.uk/up..._GT3582-3R.pdf

ohhh thanks for the reminder , ill give them and that atp turbo site a call in the morning and see if i can order it through any of them

 

.72 and a 70mm wheel is going to be the ticket.

You don't want the biggest housing you can get because that's going to cause lag, and poor street manors.

I want to make your exhaust side slightly smaller than Racin's. His is a little soft on the bottom end due to our big turbine wheels, but I don't want to run a 68mm wheel because you have big tires and crappy gearing, its almost like towing all the time!

70mm turbine inside of a .72 A/R non-gated T3 twin scroll, and I'll externally gate it.

 

lol hey one thing at a time....what do you cruse at on the freeway again? lol with my crappy gears i get awesome mileage going down the highway.....just horrible starting off, shifting, and about everything else...ESPECIALLY rough on the clutch

ill call the places tomorrow and see what the damage on the bank account will be

 

I cruise @ 2250 on the freeway and don't have power issues anywhere!

and probably get close to the same mileage as you anyways!
