Update:
This GTX3076r ended up failing. an Unknown reason, as the bearing cage collapsed....
ADP did take over and warranty the turbo.
Although we did source a turbo builder down the street from ADP by the name of Chris Scremin
He has actually engineered a center section that is similar to the garrett units, but machined to fit a different, and higher grade ball bearing cartridge. Utilizing a high grade steel bearing cage and all the same interal coatings found in the garrett unit.
In other words, a fully rebuildable, more refined garrett replica.
Theres a twist though,
I ended up moving to a GTX3576r turbo in this warranty claim.
Simply requested it, paid a small difference.
GTX3576R .82 T3 with 3" Vband outlet. .60 compressor cover.
The downside to the GTX3076R is the simple fact that youre turbine wheel struggles to reach the peak efficiency of the GTX inducer wheel.
Step up to the GT35 exducer and you lower turbine back pressure, raise compressor efficiency and ultimately you have the ability to actually flex the GTX designs muscles.
65lb/min here I come
Should make for some exciting mid range too.
