It's a regular old GT35 with journal bearings, hence no 'R'. I checked my receipts and this turbo is 4 years old now. I got it new with warranty for $899, and it's rebuildable. Yes, I'm just as impressed! In Garrett terminology the 'R' means ball bearing, no 'R' means journal bearing. The new PTE turbos are also available with either ceramic ball bearings, or with regular journal bearings for a much better price.
You should definitely keep us informed as to your results with this intake manifold over in the other thread. It would help us keep rack of its potential.
Why do you think I've been so adamant about the use of this intake manifold, and me going so far out of my way to obtain it? F**k you, doubters!
