Because of major delays with my GTX3076R i wont be receiving it untill 3 weeks time! which kind of sucks because i'm going on holidays for 3 months to Europe. So there will be no updates untill August.
So my original plan of getting my car running before i leave now wont work.

Any reason why the turbo won't be delivered sooner?

I'm headed straight to England. and euro railing it to Italy, France, Gernamy, Macedonia (parents home town) so staying there for the longest. while im there i'll be going to Greece and might go Malta since a friend will be there while im in Europe some time.
Well what happend it what garrett underestimated how many GTX3076 compressor wheels needed to be made and now they're a month behind schedule. I've been incontact with a few companies and it's the same situation everywhere.

After a long wait my GTX3076 is finally on its way home and we found a Tial hot housing after alot of searching... and it ws probably the only one left on the planet! we couldn't find the .63 but found a .82 insted.
Back to sitting back and soaking in the euro sun

This arrived in the mail back in Aussy, i got sent some pictures just to confirm it's arival with all the parts.
All that's left is the TiAL hot housing to arrive which is now .82 a/r (had troubles locating a .63 a/r) so now i have no idea what im expecting from this turbo.

I'm jealous... This is pretty much the turbo spec I would like to strap on the 3.0L...

i would say so aswell. it'll do well on low comp (8.5:1) with high boost i assume.

My current goal is to build a setup that will allow transfer of all supporting bits to a larger displacement motor.. and have fun with teh rock solid 2.5 until the larger displacement motor is ready to go in! |

The paint is used during balancing.. no harm leaving it..

That is a serious turbocharger, sir. Are you planning to take over where the Challenger Shuttle left off?
