GT32E or GT30R?!?!

[DSMinn0vati0ns]

Hey, i cant decide which turbo will be better.. the GT32E or the GT30R.. they are both direct bolt on except the 30r is a ball bearing turbo.. which would be the better one for street/strip and an everyday driver?!

Anyone have any expirences with this turbo?!

I love my FP 3052 which is essentially a GT30r with the FP custom turbine housing. Great street turbo with awesome potential on the strip. According to FP this turbo has made 500 whp on 93 octane.

That's my dream turbo. Unfortunately, I can't afford it. Actually, the turbo I can afford. It's the supporting mods that I can't (external wastegate, custom o2 housing, install kit, etc.) What's spool like on one of those? Do you have any pics of your engine compartment?

good graph but what turbo is that for.. aslo wut turbo would be better for an everyday street car?

That graph is for the Fp 3052. And to answer your question about what turbo is best for an everyday street car I would say the 3052 or gt 30r both are roughly the same turbo.

^yeah thats what i meant

I don't think you would notice a difference either way. Both would be quite streetable in my opinion. If money is not a factor then go with the gt 30r or Fp 3052. The gt32e seems to be quite a bargain at $850.
