JULZZ Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Hi, just wanna know whether a turbo with following spec would be good for my R33 RB25DET: Compressor wheel major diameter 84 Compressor wheel minor diameter 56.5 exhaust wheel major diameter 73.8 exhaust wheel minor diameter 58 Compressor A/R 0.5 Turbine A/R 0.84 Flange dimensions 86*44.5 lubricant inlet 3/8" lubricant oulet 2-M8*51 bearing system 2 floating cooled by oil My Question: Would that turbo fit into my std. manifold? At what rpm would it start to build up boost? Is it safe to achieve my 500hp at the crank with that turbo?

paulr33 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 without know the flange type you wont know if it will fit. also what is the dump flange, as it may not suit the stock turbo. oil cooled only sucks. also not ball bearing sucks. your standard turbocharger is ball bearing and oil + water cooled. start to build boost is impossible to say without compressor map or trying the turbo out yourself. safe to achieve 500hp? not without supporting modifications no Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/114190-question-for-turbo-gurus/#findComment-2103279 Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim32 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 Seems like a fairly big turbo, where did you see it Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/114190-question-for-turbo-gurus/#findComment-2103294 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JULZZ Posted April 19, 2006 Author Share Posted April 19, 2006 http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=53938423 $750 with 6months warranty......... how do i differentiate between good/sh!t turbo? Let me rephrase about the 500hp..... will this turbo be able to handle 500hp? coz it's rated at 650 hp.... forget about all other things for the moment.....

paulr33 Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 its not worth it IMHO and it will fail sooner or later. There are far too many average joe turbochargers going around. Buy a trusted and proven brand/item and it wont fail. Plus there would be hidden costs associated in bolting that up to the RB25 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/114190-question-for-turbo-gurus/#findComment-2103362 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abo Bob Posted April 19, 2006 Share Posted April 19, 2006 If someone is asking $750 then you can tell that's not the turbo you want. Laggy, unresponsive beast only useful on fully built motor with raised redline for drag racing. Or put it on a bigger engine. Needs different manifold and dump as well.
