Garrett turbo, standard st205 ecu?, GT2860RS has arrived. Options

[delusionz]

It's looking more and more like I've blown another CT turbo, and I've had enough

So I have some coin to spend on a new turbo, but not enough for an ECU (cost more than the turbo).

What can I run with basic fuel mods?

GT2860 - Should be a close match to an upgraded CT20b, Shouldn't have to worry about dangerous leaning?

GT2871 - Direct replacement for GT2860, Flows more air than my fuel system can provide, but a good investment for later on when I can afford the ECU

GT2876 - We're already talking high power turbos, why not go straight to the best compressor in the T28 series?

I definitely want Ball Bearing, and I need to run safe boost on stock ECU (for now)

Suggestions?

That's good to know. In accordance with this advice, I've given my engineer the go ahead to build me a T28 steampipe manifold and downpipe. We have chosen the GT2871RS with .64a/r rear housing

Ooh, what did he quote you for that? I've been looking at the cheap chinese manifolds on trade me and they all have short 3rd pipes which will heat up Cyl 3 and run it lean, that and badly placed or lack of wastegate port.

So i'm using an adapter until I can afford a full equal length manifold.

I've got a Gt3071r sitting here ready to go on.

We'll have a pretty good lineup of white ST205's soon, Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch!

Hey TRDGT4 how much boost did you run on stock? Did you have boost control, or just spring pressure??
