terribleturner Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Ok, i blame this on Jake and slightly on Private Piles. Like every man and his dog i have ordered myself a GT4088. Initially i had ordered the 81a/r seeing as there's a few people running this set up now and it's tried and tested and seem's to be working just about right. But now im thinking would it be worth going for the next size up?? Think it's the 96. Need to tell him tomorrow sometime. So what should i do and why?? How much more like will i see from the 96 over the 81?? And potentially how much % horsepower will i see in the bigger a/r?? Thoughts people???????

Jake Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 I've gone for the .96 non-divided now. Ordered it today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 Now Jake did you go forr it because you couldn't get the 1.06 with the V-Band or because of the difference in lag over power?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Because I couldn't get 1.06 divided (out of stock everywhere) and the 1.19 doesn't come with a v-band turbine outlet. I thought the 0.96 divided might be too restricted so I went for .96 undivided. I did consider the .81 but I want more power and I don't care if I lose some low down spool. My GT60 was on-boost nearly all the time but now I'd like to be able to cruise off-boost really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I rekon the undivided .96 will be a great tubby, look forward to hearing what you guys say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I went for the next size down, got a GT4088R with the Precision 0.68 housing (Michel tells me), car is being mapped 8th June hopefully so should be able to provide some hp/spool stats then. I wasn't to bothered about big hp numbers, I wanted a really responsive street car hence then smaller A/R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terribleturner Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 Jake you make a good point about not being on boost all the time. Think im going for the 96 then Jamie do you what A/R Dan got on his?? He went bigger didn't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I've gone for the .96 non-divided now. Ordered it today. I won -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terribleturner Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 God im really going mad. Shame no others running the GT4088 have got power graphs to compare with. We have Jamie's but he's got alot more going on with the engine like cam's etc.... Think i'll go with the .96. As said it'll mean i can drive off boost and will mean i still have a good top end.
