you get on you knees behind the car with your ear sealed over the end of your exhaust and get your m8 to rev it to limiter. then the doctor can calculate the exhaust noise level by substitution the damage factor of your ear into a simple mathematical equation. hahaha excuse me amusing my self take it in and get a dB test m8. wont cost u much.

yes externally gated. unsure on the mainfold brand! having a look on ebay and stuff but looks like home made crap. ill find a decent one for a good price if i persist

Pics??

Thanks DCIEVE Yes i have worked out they are the same thing lol. too bad no one else could put it so simply lol. Spoke to "un named" seller today and i can get trade price of $1600 for a new gt3540 with the .82 exhaust housing... Hows this price??? need to get manifold too, he quoted 900 which is a bit excessive so ill keep looking. peoples thoughts...???

hmm then gt3540 is whats on Eastons r31 black pearl drift car... cause i know he is running an xr6 turbo... i know that things goes hard too . it seems most ppl are recomending very similar turbo yer i will be using bosch injectors as my bro ownes the dealer down here

yup im agreeded guys. thanks for every ones input. was of great help. now its 2 grand investment time lol

ok im thinking gt3540 at this stage with .82 exhaust housing but curious as to why sven recommended .61????

so the one with the .61 is actually a gt3050 not a 3540??? and the one with .82 is the 3540???

ok im guessing these are essentially the same turbo with different exhaust housing sizes??? one is .82 and one is .61??? will the .82 mean more lag?????

as in keep it all same diameter??

what is the .61 actually a measurement of?? before this thread i was leaning toward a gt3540 and seems maybe still the way to go?? am i right inassuming .81 is a bit big if response is desired??? excuse my ignorance guys. never had to look into bigger than standard turbos before

sorry this means not heaps to me... please elaborate in dummy language lol

thats the power i am hoping for and boost by3.5 would be just fine have u used this turbo personally? any one with arguments against?

to4z... bit big maybe??? i assume displacement should be quite close to 3 liters?? 600x300x75 we will say for now about fmic (havnt purchased yet) exhaust and fmic will be 2 of last things i get as i want the piping to have clear path so will install motor etc first.

point taken.. i will look into bigger ones

hey all, as some of the tassy boys will know, im building up my hybrid 25/30DET as we speak. Now i am stumped as to what turbo to use. i am aiming for 300+rwkw and the car needs to be streetable. it prob wont be my every day car but will be driven on the road often. so a big laggy sucker isnt really ideal for me but in saying that i dont want a turbo thats too small and has no punch. Responsivness is prefered but would like to have a bit of punch on boost. The engine specs are as follows: rb30 bottom end knife edged stock crank shot peened standard rods with arp bolts wisco 20 thou over pistons acl race series bearings all rond ported and polished rb25det head stock cam shafts new/upgraded springs and valves etc after market ecu (unsure what one yet) bosch 040 500cc injectors z32 afm forward facing plenum (unsure what one yet) fmic 3.5 inch turbo back exhaust or there abouts Now i will be chucking the turbo on a high mount manifold with an external gate and hope to run about 18 psi. would like to hear what turbo setup you guys recomend for me as my knowledge in turbo selection is lacking lol. cheers james
