Anybody run a gt4094r?

4.0l sahara · Dec 27, 2012

So has anybody ever run a gt4094r? I was thinking it may be a good match for 225/100's.

Specs-
ball bearing
compressor ind-67.8mm exd-94.0mm
turbine-77mm and comes in a couple different A/R housings.

Also garret just list the turbine as 77mm. Is that the inducer or exducer? I'm assuming inducer.

Thats 77mm inducer 68mm exducer, its a small turbine. Morgan (younger1993) has run one, said it was a dog.

Stick with borg chargers

Hellen Keller sent this?

Unless Its a dual ball bearing, with that size exhaust housing, its a dog. Mine was a single ball bearing. A good single charger is a 64/65/T4 turbonetics dual ball bearing or a GTX 4202r 64mm race series charger. Or any smaller non vgt Borg Warner charger 62-66. The single ball bearings do not help much at all. Spent $3,000 on that whole setup, and it was worthless.

Also, do your 225's maintain 4.5v of ICP at WOT?

Oh ok then if it's a 68mm exducer thats to small.

I ran the 4088r. It's the same exhaust size on a 4094r, but with a smaller compressor size.

It's my buddies truck I'm just laying on the couch with nothing better to do than look at turbo's. But it has bobs billet pump and holds good icp. At the moment the 66/68 with a billet wheel seems to be the limiting factor. How about a s368? Could always just get another s366 with a bigger turbine too.

Thats what I was telling mat to do 66/73, I love mine.

I'll have to turn the heat up on him and get him to order one.

SSpeeDEMONSS · Dec 28, 2012

There was talk on comp about the 4094r as a single and a few said there were surge problems. Though that was on a 5.9. Just food for thought. Apples to oranges.

Garrett

probably getting paid at work to post this from my bionic

Heard they suck as a single. (compressor surge) but work well as a high pressure charger in a compound set up. But it's hard to beat a cheap BW charger

motoxracer42 · Dec 29, 2012

They surge as a single on cummins and dmaxs. The wheel flows less than a cast bw 66.

The turbo in Dozer's video is a custom turbo. It started life as a Garrett GT4094R but JJ sent the compressor housing to Danville Performance and had them machine the housing to accept their custom 71mm x 95mm compressor wheel. This wheel definitely outflows a Garrett GT4094 wheel and should not be compared to it (It would be closer to a GT4294 but even then is still a little bigger and it has Extend Tips). Hope this helps clear this up.

MorganY · Dec 30, 2012

My mistake. I saw 72mm awhile back, and assumed it was a GTX series.

windrunner408 · Dec 30, 2012

No worries Morgan. Danville lists their turbo as a "72mm VGT" but it really only measures out at just under 71mm (and it is a Dmax turbo that starts out as a GT4094VA). Why they don't just call it a 71mm VGT or something is beyond me but the wheel is a billet wheel compressor wheel that is the dual plane twelve blade design with some extended tips.
