turbo question

ok i was talking to a guy about his eclipse and he said he has an FPS 3065 turbo. what kind of turbo is that and where can i go to find it. i wanna read up on it and decide if i want to eventually put that on the gs-t i'm buying from jake

www.forcedperformance.net
30 series garrett ball bearing compressor rated for 65lbs/min. A large turbo, I wouldn't suggest trying to start with it.

Tha's a very large turbo. You would have serious, serious traction issues with that in a GS-T, I think ;).

Also quite expensive :p

If I'm not mistaken, the 3065 is the largest turbo FP sells, correct? Maybe it's the Red? Anyways, that's a pretty damn big turbo, easily capable of 600whp and 10's - probably not the one for you right now ;)

forced production says its capable of 650 hp direct bolt on and that turbo is fuckin expensive. and he's upgrading it. he's gunna get a system that runs anywhere from 35 - 40 psi. <---holy shit that alot of boost. but yea when he does i'm gunna see if he'll sell me that turbo so i don't have to pay $1300 for it.

hey kevin, you kno the setup on jakes GS-T ( i think ) if not i'll e-mail you the mods to it. but what do you think the max boost i can run through that engine without blowing it.

It is a damn big turbo, i have a fwd and the biggest i want to go is a Evo III before i sell and buy and AWD car....

There are FWDs running 9s/10s, and they arent doing it on small turbos ;) You just need enough traction to allow the use of the larger turbos.

The 3065 is bigger than the Red. The red uses the 60-1 wheel rated to 60 lbs/min. I did get 62 out of one though... But FP also makes a 3565, same compressor I believe but larger hotside. More like a GT35R. Still smaller than my turbo :lol:
