Garrett T3/TO4 BB conversion cartridges ?

Hi all , have seen an ad for these at ATP Turbos site but not updated for some time so any links or details ?

Thanks Adrian .

Re: Garrett T3/TO4 BB conversion cartridges ? (discopotato03)

what you wanna know about them ? they use the same BB cartidge as the GT series. steel dual ball bearing.

. Exceptionally Crisp Throttle Response
2. Spools Up to 15% Quicker than Journal Bearing Turbos
3. Quicker 0-60 Elapsed Times
4. More Tolerant of Marginal Lubrication
5. Less Chance of Seal Leakage
6. Improved Damping & Control over Shaft Motion
7. No Thrust Bearing, which Eliminates a Weak Link
8. Maximum Efficiency, Performance & Reliability at an Affordable Price

if you need pricing PM me. its acutally not much more to purchase the complete turbo VS just the center chra

Thanks , I wanted to know what turbine and compressor options are available .

Cheers Adrian .

as of right now, Garrett has limited the release of the BB chra to only the stg3 and p-trim turbine wheels.

but, we can build them with almost any comp. wheel. https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emthup.gif

im running a BBTO4R with a T3p .63 a/r on my daily driver, and loving the pressure recovery between shifts.... https://honda-tech.com/forums/images/smilies/emwink.gif

This is really good news - those P trim/TO4R's are the same as the Z by the sound of things .
I would like to see more of Garretts GT plain bearing turbines available with BB's ie the GT32 and GT37 . I like my turbos to have larger turbines in relation to compressor diametres so turbos like the GT3271 GT3576 GT4082 GT4067 could work well .

While the TO4P trim seems to work I'd like to know if one of the GT spec turbines could do the same job but with a little less weight so maybe better transients - GT35 or GT37 turbine ?

I really hope Garrett releases all the turbines and compressors in BB form and makes them available as spares - as well as rebuild kits . This way we can build what we like and not be limited to the generic diesel CHRA's . Should increase Garretts market share no end .

Before I go I've noticed that over there you use the compressers inducer diametre to describe a wheel ie 67 for TO4R , seems opposite of what Garrett does with GT wheels anyway .

Last quick Q , When the GT40R was first released the pics of it showed a 6/12 bladed compressor (BCI-18 ?) , the later ones seem to have a 7/14 bladed compressor (C 117 ?) . I always though the lower the blade count the better or has some later tech design got around that , could be some specific diesel app ?

Cheers Adrian .

so can we work a SC63?

I need a new inlet housing do you sell those
