Hey Nizmoid?? And to imply hidden agenda, grow up?? Dude out of all the turbos on the planet why GCG there are so many options?They dont make em, they fixem/rebuild em?Never will they be better than a built/made high performance turbo built for high performance and not just FixXed to take a bit more. Imply! Dont think so! your response was admission by default! Grow up! Naa man i dont think so the B.S starts when you turn into an adult, Kids Rule!

Check all drivetrain mounting points from the engine mounts back or clutch.

I understand the drivability & the wank factor all too well? Some wank to HP figures others wank with their wallets and others wank the wankas to wank their wallets and theirs a good chance i use the term "WHAT A F#$kN WANK" more than you

I dont doubt that you have the experience, But your telling me how much i cant do it for & im telling you how much i have done it for, atleast when it gets to 200kw. Im yet to decide on a turbo upgrade on this project but im guessing a Garret would be better than a GCG both in price & performance?. Are the GCG's your mentioning Highflowed stock turbos??? There are others who agree with you on the price/performance issue, Lets just say Hidden Agenda Anyone?

The $2500 mentioned was actually $2400 includes piggyback & intercooler the clutch was done before the mods so forget to mention, but add that anyway $440=$2840 thats a far cry from 4250+$1200 to get the same result. I used an AFC and your $1200 is APFC im assuming, so take $600 of that still takes you close to 5k, $4250 plus labour that would put you in the $6000+ without the ecu, and chasing $8000 if not over with.Well i dont think i need to do the math any further. Do you need a mechanic ??????

I dont know what to say? Do you guys really agree with $4000 for 200kw? Telling you i managed 200kw for a bit under $2500 and not far under that before it got on the Dyno some of you guys might try paint me up as full of Shit. OH! Wait minute you already did. But what do i Know im just a newb i cant even juggle tennis balls let alone spanners. Abo bob cheers mate A newb to the forum usefull info If your not getting the most out of your walbro try wiring it up to get the volts it needs, you may also wanna be certain its the pump holding you back, playing guessing games with my wallet out always makes me feel stupid when im wrong and thats why im HERE, I dont have 300+kw experience. If the pump flows as advertised i dont/didnt see the problem, good to know others are quick to correct thru experience

Thanks mate! Real advice on the topic

Dude i didnt mean to come across that way dont get sensitve on me. I need turbo advice not an education on How much things cost & 4k for 200kw is just a LITTLE over inflated.

ECU Not needed for 200kw Exhuast, done! I/C, done! Tien, suspension done! Brakes, done! Fuel pump, done! EBC, done! My perspective tells me its FREE, Today is a new day and counting mods i did yesterday, Naaa i dont think so. How much im going to spend today?is my 1st question & How much will i gain? is the 2nd? Clutch needs replacement anyway so cannot count that cost as a mod. The plan was to mod & clean up stock manifold, I made no mention of aftermarket.

300kw+ internal gate? i thought stock manifolds dont flow past 300kw sounds like im well misinformed? No stranger to the $$$$ vs performance issue but 50kw for a few thousand $$$$ when 200kw is free, not sure how your calling that cheap. Yeah i know studs easy fix but its led to this. How bout some 300rwkw turbo/combo's????

Havent fitted fuel pump yet, What sort of intank pump would you recommend? When i mentioned internalgate power loss i didnt mean a loss of power, just that the max potential of the turbo would be limited 10>15% to what it could be which with 250kw would be around 30kw more going external. I found top feed injector combo is cheaper and fitting a fuel rail is hardly a hassle,Looks trick and better fittings which dont even compare to standard hose clamps. Is the cost of Apexi PFC, High flow Turbo and injectors worth 50kw??? 200kw is practically free & easy and virtually No Hassle, $$$$ vs Performance 50kw option makes no sense.

Hey all, What started out to be a minor Service, oil,filters,plugs etc etc has made way for the unstoppable snow ball effect after finding 2 broken studs on the exhaust manifold, The parts list so far reads like this: FMIC Drift BOV Turbosmart Dual stage boost control Apexi PFC Warlbro 255 3in Turbo back/High flow cat/single stainless muffler So now im searching for as much as i can get out of stock block/head/cams/inlet and exhaust manifold. Not sure weather to go internal or external on the gate,weld on gate to stock manifold or use spacer to go external or live with the potential power loss of internal gate? Turbo's???? Anyone had any experience with those Monstaperformance ones on Ebay they can tell me about??? Turbo recommendations most welcome? Injectors? Im thinking 650cc top feed/fuel rail combo? Clutch??? thinking of getting stock one modded to suit(cheap) or if you can recommend someting in a decent price range id be glad to hear it? Looking for around 300rwkw.
