Garrett GT3788VA Upgraded turbo
 
Is anyone running this billy bad ass upgraded stock replacment turbo on there 6.0 and is it worth the 1500 bucks??

I know there was quite a few guys on PSN running it and everyone seemed pretty happy with it. Anyone know the size of it?

on innovatives sight it says 88mm, 52 trim, .58. thats the only numbers I could find on the whole thing.. Cant tell you if this helps or not doesnt give exact compresser or turbin sizes

They are a 64/88 or something like that i think but dont quote me on that. I know a few guys that run them and they like them. I think they are good tough stock replacement turbos

Let's see a $1400 turbo that DOES NOT require a core. WINNER!

Basically it's a 64mm with a larger turbine section as well. I have been running one for a few months now and have enjoyed it!! It's definitely a towing turbo with the way it spools. Seems to lag like the OEM but once it hits 2k rpms it LIGHTS off and just rolls power. I do need to work the tuning and see if the lag can be minimized. If you ever decide to run larger injectors 190's will get you close to 600hp! BTW it whistles like crazy!

Haven't seen too many 600hp setups with 190's and a 64mm!?

Still sound like a sweet setup, and the price and no core charge definitely make this seem like a great deal!

Heavyassault, do you have any vids of this setup? I want to hear the whistle!

At the end the loud pop is a boost tube letting go. Dyno read 555/918...you do the math.

Pretty sure Kevin's truck has more than just a turbo and sticks on it. Either way, I wasn't doubting you, I was just saying I haven't seen many. I know there are a few out there, I just didn't want these guys to expect 600 at the wheels by bolting a turbo and sticks in. I guess I worded that wrong. :c:

So what would Kevin's truck be running in addition to the turbo and sticks to increase the power?
