Anyone running a GT2876r on a b16a? I came across someone selling a second hand one in good condition for $900 and im thinking about buying it. Rather a Gt2871r but for $900 its a decent deal on the 76r.

i believe i have a 76r be but my setup is not finalised.
Luke has the 71r so we can have some sort of comparison in the end.
Wat happened to the RS?
selling it. the turbo is half through its life so i thought might as well sell it now whilst im doing my rebuild plus i do need something a little bigger to get 300hp atw's
give it a go. If worse comes to worse you can always swap the turbo if you don't like it.
It will give u the power you want.
From all i've read its just the lag that's the biggest factor.
But you have to rem, from a hi-comp motor the lag is not that bad apparently.
I'm still getting mine together, and main i got it is also cos i got the turbo cheap.
I've been reading around and alot of the lag problems are people with s15s complaining.
For them the lag is abit more.
Here's a comparison, the guy i brought my turbo off told me on a stock ca18 boost kicked in at 4krpm.
Judging by our car is should come on about the same mark if not slightly earlier.
I can live with 4k boost. :)
full boost at 4k? or starts spooling at 4k?
full boost at 4k, but i think his issue is that his motor is not as high revving, i beleive it redlines at 6.5k
full at 4k...ohh thats pretty good. I used to run a t04e and this sh1t box started spooling at 3500rpm. But when it came on it was solid.
yeah that's how this one is also. When its On its ON!
I got an LSD and longer ratios which will hopefully let the baby spool out
I picked up a APS SR40 Front & Garrett GT2871R Back 0.86 for $900 brand new :thumbsup:
Will be on the car soon...
3 weeks as I have people to payback before I can afford the tune :p
Lukenzen how did you score that?
i told him about it...
should have scored it for myself LOL
Dammit i been looking for 5 days straight now and there are soo many of them on ns.com and other large forums but for some reason i always just miss out on the sale.
I've got everything else on my build sorted except this and its annoying me :| semi wanna rage...
lol, it took me a month to find one also, and i found luke's at the same time.
Its all luck of the draw
Just buy a new one

Yeh i know i want to...if my gt28r sells then i will deffinatly buy a new one but i spent 1g 3 weeks ago on the car then realised rings need replacing and then i bought new lsd, new clutch new pressure reg etc etc now and then turbo will put me over 3g just for random rebuild.
I can get the gt2871r with 52 trim and all bolt on with my setup for around $1300 brand new. So if my gt28r sells then i will do that straight up.
that's how cars are, always bloody expensive!
Just like your woman!
my womans fine...she fends for herself fairly well...altho i had to buy her a full body kit, including fitted and painted for her s15 for her last bday. twas worth it tho
hahaha
I had to give mine my Enkei Racing S ;(
She's looking for a body kit for her EU civic also, pity they are not common
I find the Gt2876R a decent size, depends which rear housing you got.
Mines got .86 housing and everyone says its got massive lag lol.
One point eight
Yeh i've decided to wait till my gt28r sells and just get a new gt2871r with either 52 or 56 trim and 0.64 housing.
Mate go get a GT30 you'll love it. My mate runs a GT35 on a stock b16a and its fine, fullboost about 5000rpm. With just AFR adjustments its making 186kw i think, still has timing to be done etc.
yeh gt30 probably a better way to go but for street 2871r is more ideal for nice power and quick spool.
180kw should be easy with a 2871r
i was gettin 240hp - 180kw at the wheels with my gt28r on 7psi. running it upto 20psi ill no doubt get the 300hp atw's and over marks.
Hopefully :), we'll see after the fresh rebuild.
So my goal of 160lw ATW shouldn't be a problem :thumbsup:
or isit high comp?
Nah low comp but ive done alot of stuff to my motor.
Finally found my turbo :) Getting a second hand gt2871r with 5000k's on it for $900 :)
56 trim aswell :) just what i want.
good price
Got some pics of it here on my build thread
