Bigger Turbo Question

[Richard Le]

Is it possible to install a turbo that's bigger than stock without modifying the AC bracket? I'm currently running jwaller's hybrid turbo now and want to go bigger, maybe a gt67 or gt35r. Any pics of a big turbo with stock AC?

GT35R is an awesome turbo and will fit with the AC unit. Since you can to use with stock like downpipe.

With alittle work should be good 11 sec turbo.

I was going 11.2 @ 120 on 18lbs of boost.

I think Phil Long ran a 67 with AC

Richard, look at pauls truck. He still has the AC bracket on that side with a 67. I think the 35r requires some grinding of the bracket which I know you don't want to do to your nice chrome brackets.

67 and a good tune and I could make your yell Vietnamese cuse words at me.

Jeff, I don't think Paul has AC. He has an AC delete bracket. I recently picked up some Vietnamese curse words from the wife, so I'm ready to use them

I have a 35r on mine and yes it took a while to grind the ac bracket but it runs alot better and sounds great!!!

Re: Bigger Turbo Question

Yes it will fit. On that note a gt35r is 61.2 mm compressor side, Alex has a Bullseye 62mm turbo and did this. If you search his build, its really not a crazy build either. L35 heads even. he is not running ac but i am sure it can be made to fit just like a 35r. read this http://www.syty.net/forums/showthread.php?t=77166 and this http://www.syty.net/forums/showthread.php?t=76572

Re: Bigger Turbo Question

The turbo Alex has would do way more than you want also and is slightly smaller outside than the 67 is. I would caution you on stall though, to take advantage you will need a stall or at a minimum get a ball bearing turbo to help as much as possible.

I believe MAITAI1993 is still running his AC with a GT35R
