GT2871r

[jambo_gtir]

As per title, need one as a direct bolt on to standard manifold. Not fussed about compressor outlet as if it isn't for the standard top mount I'll be forced to get a FMIC then 8) haha.
Obviously I want one that isnt broke or leaking oil.

Thanks

I've got a newly rebuilt 2876 got sale if you're intereste.
Hasn't been fitted since the rebuil, so has done 0 miles.
Looking for about £850 for it.

 

[jambo_gtir]

I'm not very up on the different models of turbos, but basically will this bolt straight on to my manifold? How is this different to the gt2871r? cheers

 

[EricYellow]

It will bolt straight on to the standard manifold.
The compressor housing is bigger compared to the 2871.
Will do approx. 480 bhp according to the garrett website.
It's got a 4" inlet.
Turbine side will bolt on too without much problems.
In this topic I posted a pic of it.

ok thanks, I'll look into this and get back to you

 

[jambo_gtir]

Still after a 2871r? anyone? Come on Bobby, sell me yours

 

[EricYellow]

Can't tempt you to buy the 2876 at £800?

 

[Fast Guy]

Doesn't the 4" inlet catch on the gearbox? or is that only on the 3071?

 

[EricYellow]

It does, you'll have to use a spacer to clear the gearbox.

I'm just having a prod after you said you're always breaking something on the track because you're never quite as prepared as you mean to be.

I've probably jinxed it now. :doh:

 

[pulsarboby]

yep if my turbo breaks on track then you get hit twice with the big slippery cod:lol:

sorry off topic but are you popping over to our hotel on friday night george for a beer etc?

 

[jambo_gtir]

Any news mate? hopefully on the track that turbo didn't impress you and you are going to take it off, sell it to me then whack on your 3071r? haha

 

[jambo_gtir]

bump.
