Well i got the turbo through the post this morning and realised i had actually purchased a GT2871R .86.

It is the biggest of the GT2871R clan and good for 475bhp.

I've sent it back and am going to get another RS.86 . Will cost me a few quid more, but its a straight swap.

Unless you can make my engine forged for exactly £6.12 (which is all the money i have left in the world), i'm going to have to stay fairly conservative!

Matt if you got it cheap then maybe you could've sold it on eBay for a profit?

Possibly Easy, but i want my car back, and ebay would have taken time.

I had thought about that though, good idea

Just to clarify the answers for the comparison between the GT28RS and GT2871R for my simple brain.

Order of Spool (Order of max power is just the reverse)
GT28RS 0.64
GT28RS 0.86
GT2871R 0.64
GT2871R 0.86

Only the GT28RS 0.64 can be used to near it's full potential on a non forged engine.


F****** b****** thing...
