turbo upgrade

[hoo@h]

 

from GCG:-

The factory turbocharger is a ball bearing T3 sized unit with a ceramic turbine wheel. In upgrading this unit we replace the ball bearing pack with a new one while replacing the turbine wheel and compressor wheel with hi-flowed models. The upgrade comes in two stages.  

XTRGTST-STG1 450hp rated          $2250.00  

XTRGTST-STG2 500hp rated          $2450.00  

what's the response time like on the turbo upgrade compare to the factory ceramic and the HKS 2530(seem to be popular)?

was telling me his brother has a GTST, they high flowed the turbo, match ported the standard manifold, fitted a 3 inch exhaust, FMIC, fuel pump and reg, kept the standard injectors, a wolf 3D and got 200RWKW and pulled a flat 13 at calder park with street tyres at 107MPH.  

The Wolf is alot cheaper, but l have heard it cannot support bigger injectors, is this true?

not going to hammer workshops, but for 200rwkw that hi-flow may aswell be a paper weight as thats a dead waste of $1500. Even 210-220rwkw i would question. Guys around here seem to bring home great results with the GCG turbos.

Personaly i'd get bigger injectors and not bump rail pressures with a reg.

If you want an ECU... get a PowerFC. Take the car to ICE Performance or Racepace Motorsport for the tune. By far the best in Vic for an RB tune/work

Who said the PFC was expensive? @ ~$1100 with Hand controller from nengun... i dont think you'll find better anywhere.

PFC's are cheap as dogsh*t these days. I purchased one the other day. Great prices.

EDIT: just noticed someone went thread digging :headspin:

I have just pursched myself a 95 R33 gtst with the following mods, FMIC, full 3 inch exhaust from the turbo, air filter, and a HKS boost controller. I have talked to alot of people about up grading the turbo, but they seem to tell me different things and now I do not know what to do. Do l highflow the existing turbo? or opt for something big such as a T04 with a custum manifold? and who in Melbourne is the best place to talk about turbo upgrades. My aim is to get the car to run in the 12 second bracket.

dude,

i'd recommend you speak to dennis at P.E.T Modifications (9464-4225 or 0425 799984) as he would be able to advise you which way to go for the power that you want.

also, if you were looking at hi-flowing your original turbo, he can get that done for you, so give him a call and have a chat with him. just tell him Goran (RS500) sent you and he'll help you out.
