Just like it says. Just wondering how much people paid for the stage 2 and how much do you like it???

 

Talk to Tom at Turbo Resource. He had the best prices that I could find for any BB garretts. I got both of mine from him.

 

Bought my custom stage 3 from Tom at Turbo Re-Source.

 

Thanks guys. Does he have a web site or a way to contact?

I paid $1600 for my GT3782R stage 2 kit and its been a pretty nice mod for the truck. A smoken price and a great running turbo. I have around 15k on mine so far and its still spinning fine.

 

Looks like you would have to know what model you want specifically. How do you size one up? I think this is my next purchase..

 

Mike i think i think that is the same rout i want to go. How do you like that turbo?

 

got mine from tom he welds on a 4inch exhaust flange instead of the reducing elbow. i love mine but would have gone stage 3, i have stage 2.
mine was 1550 but had been on a truck. new was 1750 i think from him without trying to talk price down.

 

I agree with Kenny, the GT3788R stage 3 is a good pick for guys running around the 450 to 500 rwhp area. A diesel mag had a truck run 500+ hp, but I'm sure that amount of ponies, you would have some high egt's. The GT3788R has a bit larger turgine and housing. Same size of compressor as the stage 2, I think. The stage 2 makes for a decent twin turbo secondary. I have to put the plug in for twins.

 

I have ran both. I paid 1650 for my stage 2 kit and sold it for 1,000 I am now running the turbo re-source custome GT3788R (stage 3) They are great turbos! Call Tom he will set you up.

 

Mike if you order the custom stage 3 it has the compressor off the GT4088 with a 64.7mm inducer and 88mm exducer. That is the turbo both myself and Mopar Man are running. Also has 72.6mm turbine in a .89ar housing, set up for a Hx40 down pipe.

 

Hot rod, Is it the same turbine housing as the stage 3? I'll have to check into it for my next build-up as I want to put together a whizzy set once I get this stuff figured out. Trick is that you have to try a few different set-ups to land on what you really want.

 

Mike are you talking about the stage 3 from Garrett, if so its a totally different housing. I see one of the guys above says Tom welded on 4" set up on his. Mine is not welded on it is a factory housing set up for the HX40 down pipe.

 

I think the stage 2 is the way to go for me. I was talking to Mike R. at The power shop and with what i have in the truck and my DDP 110's he was think a 62/12 so i call still tow. 62/14 or 64/12 might be a little laggy for towing. Any thoughts?? I could call Lenny at DDP and get one of his turbos. I heard they are pretty sweet but i don't think they are ball bearing turbos.
