Is that bigger than a GT35, and what does the W mean?

01-07-16, 22:55 GMT+10#65 Caught up in garrets marketing hey? The larger gtw are just a old t04z style
Center sections by the looks. T04z p trim turbine..which dates back to the 70's
Just a fancy t04z..950hp is absolute fairy tales for this turbo.
as for latest tech..pure marketing there. Theyd use a new turbine
And design a different style comp wheel if it was" latest tech"
Proboost is a old p trim..with a gtx copy 67mm front wheel
Those comp wheels are proven for 850hp ish.And are a new design with extended tips..
Be closer then you think
id use neither.
Cheers

02-07-16, 19:18 GMT+10#67 Something with a turbine not trapped in the 70's
GTx4088/ Pt6466-6870 /Borg warner sxe 69
be a few hybrids around the joint id try aswell
Honestly Garrett can go **** themselves over selling **** covered with chocalate witht the large gtw 38 range ..what a mob of ****s..
Noticed how you dont see any reviews on them..been out a while..americans see the p trim rear and run..lots of lag there, big heavy outdated turbine,
the p trim was the bread and butter turbine for them on a 6cyl ...20 yrs ago..lol

Nice power there, injector's are prob a bit small but might take them if the price is right, could always use them in something lol
