I purchased this turbo..Garrett bolt on GT2871R-15 .64 AR Turbocharger w/Actuator in 2022 but just now trying to put it on. The compressor outlet and wastegate is a little different. I'm assuming its made for a rwd sr20det which is fine because I have and s15 I will try it on. I keep reading that this and maybe a 3071 will bolt on. Is there something I can do to bolt it on like change some parts from the old turbo? I read here that I would need this turbo but with a gtir housing? I've asked a few places and they don't have anything specific to our cars. You guys know of a bolt on turbo and the link for it? I'm only looking to push low to mid 300's whp

My turbo is pretty much the same although was built by turbo dynamics.

It's a straight bolt on turbo for a 200sx I believe.

Mine has the original gtir comp cover machined to fit so it's a straight bolt on.


Also I got my wastegate ported as the smaller. 64 exhaust housings have been known for boost creep.

I don't think you get there with gt3071r, i got 360 to the hubs 1.5bar, stock manifold 3" from turbo. Maybe G25-660 or something similar newer turbo, don't forget drivetrain loss from the equation

Is there any reason you go for old technology turbo? In 20 years turbo tech has evolved drastically G25-... G30-... faster spool, better response take your pick.
