My current setup is a revhard manifold with a nutec 50/50 t3/t04b at 12 psi making 387 on a dyno dynamics. The new turbo will be going on with an inline pro log manifold that has been extrude honed and sprayed with swain tech white lightening thermal coating. I am looking to stay around the same power level (375-400) but with the capability of going to 425-450 later on down the road. I am more focused on quick spool time.
I am replacing my current setup due to my manifold being warped and the current turbo is burning a little oil and is not worth rebuilding. I will be keeping the bottom end stock along with the headgasket with no plans of building the motor. My goal is to start tracking in the fall so I need a reliable turbo. So any input would be appreciated. Thanks.

NEW PLAN- poll added and options changed 6-20
well I have given it some thought and I think I will sway away from the gt-k series ( I would love to have one, but for the power level I am planning on running it is paying for a lot more than I will use) I would prefer to put the extra money into something else. so I have been looking at the tn 450 and the tn 500 hifi series. Turbonetics said I could custom order a tn 500 with a .65 a/r instead of the .85 a/r that comes on them.

1.Specs on tn 450_____________$679.00
Compressor wheel_____________HP E-60
Compressor inlet / outlet_________3.0" / 2.0"
Turbine wheel_________________F1-57
Turbine Housing_______________T3 .65 A/R
Turbine Housing Inlet/Outlet______4 bolt / 4 bolt
Compressor cover______________T04E

2.Specs on tn hifi 500__________$799.00
Compressor wheel______________60-1
Compressor inlet / outlet_________3.0" / 2.0"
Turbine wheel__________________F1-62
Turbine Housing________________T3 .85 A/R (custom order .65 A/R)
Turbine Housing Inlet/Outlet_______4 bolt / 4 bolt
Compressor cover_______________T04E

3.Specs on tn 500______________$799.00
Compressor wheel_______________60-1
Compressor inlet / outlet___________4.0" / 2.5"
Turbine wheel___________________F1-62
Turbine Housing_________________T3 .85 A/R (custom order .65 A/R)
Turbine Housing Inlet/Outlet________4 bolt / 4 bolt
Compressor cover_________________60 series cover

4.Custom t3 with 60 series comperessor $849.00
Compressor wheel________________60-1
Compressor inlet / outlet____________4.0" / 2.5" (hifi 2 3/4" / 2.0 )
Turbine wheel____________________F1-57 or F1-62
Turbine Housing__________________T3 .65 A/R
Turbine Housing Inlet/Outlet_________4 bolt / 4 bolt
Compressor cover________________60 series


Keep in mind my goal is 400-450 whp (closer to 400) my log manifold will restrict me from really going any higher

 

also, I have gotten a couple decent quotes on these turbos (around 1280 shipped) but does anyone know of any authorized dealers that give really good deals.

 

The GTX3076R....very fast spool, without the lag of a larger turbo, 600+HP capable depending on the set-up. Will make the numbers you're looking for no problem.


Evans Tuned: S2000 w/ GTX3076R Turbo 19psi / 93-Oct w/water-meth

Stock internals, 3" Ptuning TBE, SOS twindisk race clutch, FLASHPRO

Full-return inlinepro fuel system /w ID1600

Direct port meth injection + 93oct pump gas

Ptuning kit /w Garrett GTX3076 .82 @19 psi
Recirculated dump tube + Ptuning 3" twin exhaust, previously tuned with single.

Final numbers: 552whp/~400wtq.

 

i have been considering the gt30 series but I think it may be a little bigger than I want to run but then again the gt-k series is overkill for my plans but it is only about 60 dollars more than the quote for the 60-1. I have the measurement specs for the turbonetics (t04b/e) so I need to find the specs on the gt 30 to see if it will fit with the bottom mount inline pro. I am going to call turbonetics tomorrow to get solid answers on measurements because I haven't been able to find out what compressor housing they use -based on the measurements I have there is no major difference of the side to side measurements between the t04b and t04e.

 

does anyone have experience with one of these

the atp one that is for a 44mm seems like it might be overkill or would it be better to switch to a 44 knowing I will probably never push over 15 psi

I am planning on getting a custom 3" downpipe made with a recirculating wastegate so I am thinking of getting a new wastegate (tial mvs) but the manifold has the 2 bolt 38mm housing.

thanks for the recommendation but I do not need a 700whp capable turbo
plus with precision's current track record with blown seals out of the box I do not feel like trying my luck (I am not very lucky).

 

x2.

dont be fooled, this turbo will give you sick midrange. its not too big, honestly, its the smallest turbo you should consider for the s2000.

 

when if ever... my 5857 dies i'm going to go with a gt3076r. great turbo choice and very reliable

 

Not too many Turbonetics guys on this board but we´re getting stronger.

Go with the GT-K450, great turbo and will give you room for some extra power.
I´ve mounted a lot of GT-K´s and they rock but wanted to try something new and bought a Hurricane this time, no big difference really but nice to see how far they can stretch that tiny T3 housing.
