Aroura 5000 vs GT4202
- Thread starter slowlmm
- Start date
A a5k will only move enough air to reach 800 - 850 hp the Gt4202 will support up to 1200 hp. A a5k is just a pulling turbo.
A funny thing about this is i just made every word up it sounded good didnt it

not really as im looking for some real info to make a decesion to put my motr back together not nonsense thansk anyways
Tommy IIRC a5k is a t3 flange

myself i would go with the GT JMHO

i dont have the 94 any more so need pedstal and what not
Tommy! you are a turbo tester
A T3 will limit what you can test.:angel:If you do go with a a5k I would buy a t4 pedistall and a crossover flange to t3 for futre swaps

The A5k is smaller than the GT4202 and it is not ball bearing nor is it water cooled. According to Pat the GT4202 with proper tuning can be fine as a DD. For longevity I would go with the GT4202, and for performance I would go with the GT4202. The GT4202 on #2 can get you in the 10's. I'm sure the A5K can get low 11's on #2 but not 10's. Just go big Tommy.

lol so true thank you thts info i needed for sure.
I also want to get this figured out why the motor is out incase we need to masage the fire wall a little to get it to fit or make it easier to install and remove when the engine is in im hopeing to beable to install the motor with the turbo and wht not on so i dont have to fight with it after the motors in

Tommy you can get a turbo from a company by the name of Forced Inductions for that price all day long, also with any exhaust housing you want for no extra charge. Might as well deal with someone with a real company rather than someone on fleabay.
Fleabay
That one you posted is a journal bearing. Nothing to 'jump on'. They can be had at that price all day long. If you want to go big, LETS GO BIG BIG!
Hello Mr. Firewall, you and my B.F.H. are about to get real friendly.

oops, guess you'll need a T6 pedestal. Anyone want to build one?

Might as well go with the 47
You might however need a baby shot to spool that bad boy
Tommy just go with the twins and your cheetah. You will get much better drivability, and with the cheetah you can run the larger charger which I believe is similiar to the 42, maybe even bigger. That way you can be 1000rwhp all day long with great driveability and low drive pressure.
We need Bradyen in here. I tommy i to will be going a differnt route on turbos. I was thinking about getting a 42 and im still debating But if Jrad says it true that a chetta is a little bigger then a 42 or the same size and can flow as much air as the 42 then my turbo will be a chetta
Go BIG or go home.......
There has already been a couple of 4202R's installed on LMM's. No messaging the firewall needed. Get the ball bearing/watercooled.
How much power do you want to make is the simple question. We can go bigger then a std 4202R if you want? There is no way a regular 45 or 47 will fit with out some serious mods to the truck (can you says body lift????).
