I purchased my an AMS gen2 3076r when I noticed my manifold and Turbo had a crack. It snow balled into me replacing absolutely everything. I would like to get an idea for the max possible whp on E85 with their turbo... I'm on the fence on if I should sell it while the turbo is still new. It claims it's a 650hp turbo and I've seen an AMS dyno graph showing 493 with their stage 1 motor..... but is there more to get out of this turbo? Is the power band worth it or should I go bigger? Research I see running this turbo is usually a basic stock engine

I really appreciate you taking the time to reply @chetrickerman . Do you think this would be a good turbo to finish the build off with:

GEN2 - GTX3576R - EVO X Bolt-On Factory 3 Bolt Comp & Internal Wastegate, .94 A/R : atpturbo.com

I will be using it for street and track days. I want to make sure I have the best spool/whp combo. Right now my weak spot is the sst (Ill blow money on axles after the tune).... the 10 disk clutch is rated at 600hp which if I remember correctly is whp. My 98 GSX is 600whp so I think in that area I'll be happy as long as the power band and spool are still good for track days. Not hitting 500 seems too little, I would be embarrassed if someone asked how much hp with the money spent.

 

[gsxjohn]

If you want the absolute best spool up while being able to make 500 whp, get the EFR 7163 with a T4 twinscroll manifold. But if you want the best response on the stock frame parts, then yes go with a Gen 2 GTX3576.

Awesome thanks for the advice. Will both make it to 600whp on e85?

 

[gsxjohn]

I have a Gen 2 GTX3576 and it currently makes 521whp on 93. Also there is a guy on youtube called 40RollX,

. Check his comments. I think he is around 670whp with a bigger inlet and built head with cams, but you know how youtube can be.

The ATP gen 2 does claim its 750 crank capable. I may go with that atp 3576 gen 2 and see if I can hit 600awhp. It'll be nuts with how fast these MRs shift. If I go up to the 3582 I'll have to change intake and change turbo outlets. LoL sucks so bad taking a loss on new parts. Good news is vividracing is trying to make me an RMA and full store credit on the turbo.... would be so awesome 👌 , I usually always use extremepsi since they hook me up but if vivid does me that solid I'll have to start using them more.
