Default Garrett GTX-R turbochargers

Since nobody has made a thread on these yet, I thought I would. Ive got a couple coming tomorrow or next week(GT42R). Anybody else have these on order or going to be using them?

Here you go.....you will see a big change in design.....no splitter blade.

The front page of our website has the compressor maps.....check them out. BIG difference in flow.

That's funny. No that's not where I got it from. I've had that picture for a while just like I have had the compressor maps for a while. Straight from the source .

Does anyone plan on doing any back to back testing?

Wholly FREAK'n COW look how big the efficiency islands are on
that compressor map.

Thats an insanely efficient turbo.

An 80% center efficiency island ..... most compressor maps start at 78% and quickly
drop into the 68% range. This thing stays in upper 70's thru whole map pretty much.

The GT-45 map is even better ............ is this still a T-4 housing ??? cause these things are hang'n with T-6 turbos
