[s-cars] Garret GT2871RS vs GT3071

[Christopher Leal]

I agree with Dave on not going smaller, but but my experience at Sea level is different. It pulls to redline and has a great boost threshold depending upon your software.
   
  Hope this helps.

Contemplating a new turbo this summer, was looking at the GT3071
and  now I'm wondering how the GT2871RS compares.

Anyone with experience  with these two turbos?




I only have experience with the 3071.  Based on how it worked, I would  
never 
consider going smaller.  It hit very early, even at my  altitude.  It 
does 
run out of steam around 7k, unlike the GT30R.  I  also have one that I 
used for 
only a few weeks that I would be willing to  sell.
