Garrett GT28RS Turbo

This be a review of the Garrett GT2860RS turbo.
I have been looking for like 4 years for my car and could not pick one.
I was thinking about a TD04? Nah...tooo small
I had a VF39! was a nice turbo for sure BUT when it blows up....You are screwed!
So it lead me to the apt turbo website.
http://www.atpturbo.com/
Great little webpage! They were quick enough shipping for me. Aswell the prices where not too bad.
Now for my opinion of the Garrett GT2860RS
For starters here in the mod list:
TBE
AWIC
Coffee cup
AEM FIC
The turbo has very close stats to a td05 turbo tho i dont think it has the total output.
It claims to make only 360hp tho i think it could get closers to 380-400 verying in tune.
Asfor how it performs in the car... Beautiful!!!
I love it!!
The power is just unreal on stock tune and NO more than stock boost!
It comes alive around 2500rpm and gets more alive around 3000rpm
Once over 3200-3300rpm she screams!
My car is an auto... yes auto. But when it hits full boost "cough" 8 psi the front tires will chirp!
There has been many many times when im going 60km,lane change hit some dirt/ sandy stuff and the tire breaks loose!
So in the end if you have the $$$ to buy a garrett turbo. Just buy it! You will love it. I love mine.
Thanks Legacy Central!
