My gtp38r suffered some damage and began burning oil, KC Turbos is the only company to offer a rebuildable centersection for such and expensive turbo. And the best part is, its better than the gtp38r ever was! If I had to, id but this center section again. But I wont have to because its rebuildable! 10/10 would recommend.

Went from a gtp38 to this one and power wise not much difference, whistle noise is a bit louder(and a bit hissy). I had an over size housing and compressor wheel so the housing didn’t fit. Ordered an gtp38r housing and cut/welded my own retainer brackets to hold housing on. Makes about 16 psi when flooring it, before my turbo with the oversized compressor wheel made 18 psi. Egts are a bit hotter at 380 f to 420 f at 70mph, 75 mph and I’m climbing up to 500 f. I still have waste-gate issues and need to get a longer one so the engine light goes away. Removed it in 15-20 mins and install is longer (due the the stupid up pipe exhaust clamp having a shorter bolt).

I thought i was going to be out $2000 for a turbo replacement and i called up KC and they showed me this product, thankful and happy for this to upgrade my damaged 38r turbo.

My gtp38r went bad and I thought I was gonna have to buy a whole new turbo since there’s no kit’s available . Then I found this. I loved how my 38r was and now I like it even more with this center section. Great sound. And Got it shipped fast. Thanks!!
