@@bacchusthompson5834 if you’re going to stay stock fuel system on the stock motor then yes absolutely 3071r is for a built engine with more than what our stock fuel system has to offer You COULD do it....but SHOULD you? Tbh, if you want worry free performance, get the 2860
The gen 2 version of this is an ideal street turbo for a 2.0-2.5l engine. You won’t be winning any standing mile roll races but the trade off is near instant spool that hits hard.

@@keithr5591 I got this turbo because it was a steal! And I think it was 100% worth it! That gtx tho can limit you to 400 but at my current power I gave my buddies 5.0 a run for his money at higher speeds
Awesome bro thanks for the info. I'm Ralf considering the gt2860rs because it's at least $200 cheaper than the gtx2860 and if it's making similar numbers and spool as well than I'll be more than happy. I'm not doing aux port fuel. The most I'll do is wmi and for that I rather stay with the quick spool and push hopefully 330-380
Nice work, Alan: hope to come up and see you someday for a similar setup. Stock charge pipes gives me questions... Catted 200 cell or catless downpipe? 2.5" or 3" exhaust? Power difference with external wastegate? Thanks and take care!
I am looking to do some simple tuning on the stock ST. Would you avoid a higher mileage car? I found a 16 ST that was used as a fleet vehicle with 111k miles, serviced regularly as well as gps monitored for speed from the company for a great deal. Would you avoid that type of car for stock tuning and daily driver? I want to park my f150 most the time.
Hello friend, if I install this turbo with the new garret intercooler, do I have to make any additional modifications? How does it affect lag and consumption in rational driving? Thanks greetings.
This is sweet. What would the reliability of the engine look like? I'm hesitant on upgrading the turbo on my ST because it is my daily driver and I don't want to over do it and cause any failures.
The real question is are you full bolt in yet with tunes because you can get like 300 hp out of stock turbo with the right supporting mods. And most will be needed for big turbo anyway
You’re more likely to throw a rod through the block using the stock turbo especially on ethanol. A higher flowing turbo will move your powerband to higher rpm where it would have less stress on the engine and still make more power in the end
What spring would you recommend I go with for my tial Q 50mm bov via a natural vacuum source (map tap or symposer delete)? I'll be running the gtx2860r gen 2 .64 along with FBO... cobb intake, cobb fmic and charge pipes, mbrp catted DP, and ford performance exhaust. Also running 2 catch cans and 1 step colder ngk plugs if that matters. Also will be running water meth with injector port on the cold charge pipe right before TB. Any ideas on what psi spring rate id be better off running until I get a good idle reading after all is installed? I appreciate any input thanks. And great video. It helped me chose what turbo to run. Keep up the great work.
I actually don't think I've tuned a 6258. I've tuned plenty of 6758's and this spools about 200 to 400 rpm sooner. I would imagine the 6258 would be very comparable to this! Just make sure you get the Turbosmart actuator for it if you go that route.
I would love to see this compared to a BNR67. It appears as if BNR mixes new and old gen technology to keep costs down? I know you've done a couple BNR videos, but I'd like to learn more in detail. Furthermore, I would love to learn about knock vs ignition corrections and why sometimes knock can be seen with no to minimal corrections and how you as a tuner would address things like that.
My GTX2867R (.64A/R) is hitting about 14 psi at 3k rpm, and peak boost of 27 psi at 3.5k .. holds roughly 24-25 psi till redline. Sound about right to you guys? PS I'm gonna try out a 93 e-tune from you guys soon.
Currently looking into doing this but I’m at 100k miles and don’t want to blow my engine lol. Would I be safe doing this or would I be better off going with a Powermax?
The more power you push, the shorter the lifespan of the engine. The Powermax will last longer, and then when it does finally go, new block and 2860 time.
Hi Alan, great job man. I see you were pulling like 335hp on 91oct. What about on 93oct. How much hp more or less do you think it will pull? I was thinking on gtx2867 gen 2, after this video I think you convince me on 2860 because I'm planning on running on fuel pump, no e30 or else. I use my car on daily driver, and I'm looking to get like 375hp. What do you think?
Your not gonna be making much more than the 91 octane made. The e30 makes a big difference. Im on the stock turbo currently on e30. On 93 octane you'll make 270 hp and 350 tq. Add ethanol and you get a big boost in power to 292 hp and 388 wtq with a jst custom e30 tune. You'll probably only make around 5 maybe 10 more hp than 91 octane
Great informative video by the way! I already have my stock turbo full bolt on tune from you and I’m enjoying it. I’m ready for big turbo, just not sure if WMI is worth it to get the octane higher? Thank you!
