Charles I thought that crazy amount of boost you were running on the gt35r, is what led to the death of that turbo

lol HAHHA no the death of the gt35r was him being dumb and not listing to meOriginally Posted by TIGERJC
long story short bolts got lose= turbo houseing to full off= chipping the hell out of the fins of the gt35r= bybygt35r
you dont need anti lag in between shifts. They dont use it in drag racing so I dont see why you would need it street racing.
Garrett turbos hold up pretty well, all these companies come out with new things that are supposed to be better than the garretts but no one has come out with anything thus far. All the big guys in sfwd are running garrett turbochargers. Anti lag is pretty hard on the turbocharger but who is holding it for long periods of time? Its not like a 2 step that you have to be on to build boost, with antilag its just that.
Actually regarding turbos that are built to withstand anti-lag yes there are better options than Garrett turbos. The IHI line of turbos for Subarus stand up to a lot of anti-lag abuse and are what is used on the rally cars, certain Mitsubishi turbos are also built to hold up better under anti-lag. I'm not sure exactly what is different but they just happen to hold up better when using anti-lag.Originally Posted by josh green

Turbine housing bolts backed out causing the inner wall of the housing itself to scrape and chip the turbine blades. Either anti-lag conditions or lack of torque on the bolts or both caused 'em to back out. Running "extreme" amounts of boost didn't hurt it. Hell, I ran 30psi upto 34psi on the stocker and it still works perfect with no shaft play. =DOriginally Posted by TIGERJC
