The 2876 is the same turbine side as the 2860 or the 2871, but has a 76mm compressor wheel with a .70 A/R compressor housing (larger diameter). The 2860 and 2871 use a .60 A/R compressor housing and a 60mm and 71mm compressor wheel respectively.

I am trying this turbo from a recommendation of a fellow Snowester. The larger compressor housing and wheel should give a little better off boost throttle response. We'll see.....

Going for a ride Friday and will report back.

Are you still going to run 100ll? Same boost? I'm interested to hear the comparison from your previous 2860r...

 

[Eli]

Same boost levels and fuel for now. 100ll and 12-13lbs at 5k feet.

you will have slower rpm but faster boost. it will drive like a mac truck throught the trees and a rocket on the hard pack.

It's a has a little more lag from the initial stabbing of the throttle, but then hold on. I will play with fuel setting and clutching to see if I can help it.

Its looking like it will pull about 2-3g more weight in the primary using base ground heavy hitters.

Well what do you think? Hows it in the trees?

 

[Eli]

I was still working on clutching right after install. The bottom end is just as good as before with a wicked top end. In the trees is just fine after clutching. Glad I did this turbo.
