Default GT 2876 vs GT3071 vs GT 3076. Differences? Pro's? Con's? Opinions?

I have seen Javad's website. (See URL)

Can we stay on topic (no LLtek valences, no my "tunner" is better than your tuner, etc.)?

Just opinion or facts about these turbo options.<ul><li><a href="http://www.034motorsport.com/product_info.php?cPath=21&amp;products_id=261">Jam u's link to Javad's turbo comparison page</a></li></ul>

Default i know the gt3076, aka gt3037 has long been a favorite turbo for 2L 4cylinder and i've even seen

two of them on a TT supra making 700whp and still having very decent spool.

it's a great turbo if you're looking for big power, but now that they have smaller turbos with the same technology, it may not be so applicable.

Umm, faster spool lower power vs more power and slower spool? What is there to discuss?

Default From fastest spool to highest HP: 2876, 3071, 3076.... as you listed them.

I will be going with a 287x since it will still make over 400hp, and my car is a daily driver.

I know for Evo's that the 3076 can supposedly make up to 100 more horsepower than the 3071, I don't know how accurate that is for a 2.2T.

Default 28rs has best spool lowest power. 30r has biggest power, worst spool. 2871 is a more

powerful 28rs and a 3071 is a less powerful 30r

Default 28RS = 2876, Yes. 2871 is a 28RS with a 71mm Compressor Wheel

Default Don't believe the spool rpm & boost, Javad's math is a bit unusual.

e.g. the website claims the 3071 can safely hold 40psi. But a bit of math and the compressor curve gives a very different picture even for a perfect flow and ignoring the heat and IC inefficiency.

Default Thanks. According to Garret the 2876 makes less hp than a 2871. Hmmm...

this could be confusing. (Too many options).
