FS: Element Tuning GT 55 Turbo
Hello i'm selling for a friend a Element Tuning GT 55 turbo for rotated mount turbo setups. I believe my friend said that this turbo was never sold to the public, as Phil said it made good midrange and spooled well, but didn't make the huge numbers everyone would want to see( the GT65 35r equivalent was sold instead of this one). Bought from Phil with less than 300 miles on it a couple years ago but never used it and he eventually went with a small stock location 18g turbo just for autocross purposes. It's a Garrett t3/t4 55lb compressor with a .63 AR housing. It has a 2.5" inlet and 4 bolt t31 style 2.5" outlet. My friend had the hotside coated in/out by crucial racing and the compressor inlet has been polished on the inside. Has all new oil feed/return fittings and hardware. I even have a red silicone coupler so a 3" intake will mate to this turbo, as well as a new turbo-->dp gasket, all fittings/gaskets/etc bought from ATP turbo and are brand new. Turbo itself is in like new condition, heck almost everything on the turbo is new lol. Phil told my friend that this turbo is most similar to a deadbolt SZ55, but this turbo was built to Element Tuning's specs. I'm sure if you contact Phil he will fill you in on more info on this turbo. Asking $600 obo. This item is located in Fremont. Thanks for looking!

Well my rotated gt3076(52lb) turbo put out 342hp on GST's dyno, and this turbo is slightly larger so I would assume it should be around 350ish on 91 and over 400 on 100.
