does anyone have any information on this turbo? it's clearly an IHI, but no idea of what it is capable of or what it's worth.
here's some pics:
any help is appreciated
it will make a difference if your pod is getting heak soak. you're better off making an airbox for the pod with a cold air feed or using the standard airbox.
i usually run airbox with 2.5" cold air feed direct from the bumper bar into the airbox. works a treat, even when engine bay temps are high. beats an un-enclosed pod any day.
i had a bosch 040. was noisy as hell. it end up dieing on me.
i then went with a gtr pump which supports up to ~250rwkw and is just as quiet as the stock pump.
i'd say stay with OEM and go with the GTR pump.
you would have to speak to an engineer, but i would think for power to weight and clearance reasons it shouldn't be a problem. aslong as you carry all the main safety features from the R33.
