My turbo rebuild guy is supose to me making me a hybrid turbo. GT35R compressor housing and wheel, and a T3 82AR exhaust housing with a stage 5 turbine wheel. Well he is having trouble finding the 82ar housing cut for a stage five wheel, and I have a tunnig apaointment on saturday march 14th. Anyways..... He has offered me a BW S258 turbo with ETT, he say it has a 70ar exhaust housing but I think he meant 76 ar. Would the BW turbo be comparable the turbo I want built or not? I havent done a little resaerch on the BW but I really am not sure if the 2 compare.

 

i have the BWs258 and im pretty sure my compressor is a 70ar and 82ar turbine side. I love it and i think they are rated to about 600hp.

 

awsome anyone else

 

What's wrong with a regular 35r turbine? I would say the s258 is probably a little closer to 30r than 35r, maybe sort of a middle step. The BW s362 is closer to a 35r, but is a nat's *** bigger and seems to make a little more power.

 

My rebiuld guy just has the compressor housing not the whole turbo. I also told him I wanted the 82ar housing with the stage 5 wheel. Because my tuner told me I needed a turbo bigger than my 60-1 t3 if I was going to use my skunk2 pro1 cams.

 

Personally I would get something a little bigger then.

 

I dont really want more than 550 whp. So I am in a perdicament.

 

Then why the ridiculous cams?

 

It was stupid and didnt totally understand what it took to run them in a turbo car. I do now and in hindsight I should have gone with ITR's or CTR's
