Re: Bought a new garrett....
Honestly, you'd be wasting your time and effort with another housing, not to mention money. You have the standard P trim turbine which has a 2.922" major and a 2.544" minor. If you wanted to swap housings and keep the P trim turbine, you could but it would cost you a pretty penny to buy the correct housing, probably more than you bought the turbo for as most of them go for $300 for the housing alone. If you wanted to keep the P trim housing, I'd suggest looking for a divided tang like you have in a .58 or .70 A/R. When you're trying to spool a larger turbine like you have, the divided tang is quite beneficial and will allow you to spool it much easier on a small motor than using an undivided single tang.
Onto turbine swaps, you could easily buy a smaller trim turbine and use your compressor wheel but it would no doubt have to be balanced. I could do it at my shop as I have access to a Heins TC3 and have balanced more turbines than I'd care to remember, but this isn't your greatest option either. 1) It's gonna cost you more money 2) It's gonna cost you more time 3) It's gonna cost you and I more effort than it's worth. My suggestion is like a couple I've read before, sell it to someone else and buy an already assembled hybrid for the same price that you'd buy a new housing for. I have plenty of turbos but seperating housings isn't in my best interest as I prefer to sell whole turbos, or hybrids at the shop. |

Re: Bought a new garrett....
You could try the TurboMustang solution to faster spool on a large snail. Block off one of the exhaust inlets on the turbo :P
