Is it just me, or does the compressor map for the GT76 Innovative look just about perfect? Am I reading that sucker wrong assuming a flow rate of about 60lbs. min. for my engine and running from 16 to 24psi? Seems to be right in its sweet spot. That thing has to be a bitch to spool though.....
hence the need for a partial bp. cmon, u know u want to do it.

What I don't want at this point is to tear out the engine and tear it apart (for the third time) again. I just want to get a nicely sized turbo on the car and enjoy it for a bit without something breaking.



I really need to get something else as a daily driver....

That's not really true.



Pro Import Cars W/ Garrett turbos



Garrett is from the US. Why would you have to send your turbo to a different country to be repaired? They're also the single biggest turbo manufacturer in the world, you should be able to get repairs anywhere. They log probably a billion miles (literally) every year in the US alone.



Turbonetics turbos are on a lot of fast cars, too. You'll note 99% of top level competitors get their product for FREE, so they don't care if it lasts more than one weekend or not.
Didn't the first couple of guys that got the gt35/40 have to send them to NZ to be rebuilt? That was my reasoning behind the statement.

Those GT's have a nice fat compressor map at low boost, don't they?
