Turbos

[IanB]

Hi all

After some advice on which turbo/turbo's to run

Im chasing 400 awhp on a safe tune, with boost settings at 0.7 bar low and whatevers required for 400 hp on high.

I have been looking at a set of 2560R's. Whole aim is to keep the response while providing respectable power. a set of slides would also do the job however there not rated as high so I would probobly be asking more out of the turbo and im not so sure about the journal bearings? The price difference is quite large however. I also looked at a set of N1's but 3k for second hand turbo's just doesnt do it for me.

Thanks

Ian

ian, you'll be after a set of gt-ss. however i doubt ull want to pay for that little HKS badge, so go and have a talk to dan, he's supplying my turbo's for me.

Another thing is to go and look at the dyno thread in forced induction (its a sticky) as there's a fair few setups and figures in there.

Youll be look at ~3k for the turbo's, then u'll prolly want to change dumps while they are off, and then u need gaskets.

On a side note, give me a figure ud be willing to pay for my N1's and i'll think about it. Also i'm selling those hks dumps, and the trust front pipe.

Slide can do bearing journals, cost is a bit more, but worth it, Im not sure about which turbo from slide you are on about tho, PM or email him, he could possibly be of great help.

Im sending you a PM now shane.

Slide turbos would be good but I think the wait on them is about 2 months at this stage? Also there only rated to 300 kw so I would be close to maxing them out, unless that was 300 kw per turbo.

Shane, more info on the GT SS man?

The HKS GT-SS is the inbetween standards and the HKS 2530. From what i've seen its pretty comparable to N1's. A set of HKS GT-SS will cost you $3032.32 + tax if u get hit from nengun.

I know spilmer (thats his name on here) is running a pair on his gtr.

[IanB]

I got this from ringing around

You will have to forgive the fashion, there just notes I jutted down into notepad:

GT2560R's

Ball Bearing Garret

Bolt On

Water Lines bolt on

Oil Lines bolt on

.64 AR

$2691

640 hp flywheel max

12 month warranty - Just turbo

[R33S2]

$2691

is that for one or both?

[NFAA32]

i second, speak to dan. he will be able to get you prices etc. and help you decide...

easiest way for that i would assume if gt ss or something similar through garrett(no hks price)

[Noy]

I've also been looking around too Ian, decisions decisions....

a mate put some of those garret 2860R's on his 32 GTR and he's very happy, they are very responsive..

I wanted something a little bigger for my GTR but with stock internals i cant. I'm thinking about getting the Garrets too. at less than $2500 a pair brand new you can't go past em..

[markimak]

big single!

well how driveable do u want it.? u can have a small single with internal wastegate like some of the BeeR* cars.

but i also second 2530 or GT SS

[Bunta]

Apparently a well set up to4z can come close to matching the GTSS's down low....I video evidence somewhere!

I attached some turbo rating info but I think it is a little old

Along side N1s and GTSS's I would look at Apexi AX53B70 P21s and Trust T517Zs

[IanB]

Both

Yeah, price is more or less the same as the 2560's ive been looking at, and this appears to be a kit with all the gaskets etc.

2860R's would probobly be too big for me and response would suffer, but where did you find them at less then 2.5k a pair?

yeah ive been thinking of going to a medium sized single rated to 450 HP or the like, however airflow may suffer as opposed to the twin setup? Bearing in mind im not chasing quater mile times, its being built to turn and be a daily so midrange is important.

thanks for the pic man, helpful. Not all the turbos im looking at are listed on there but never the less I will look into the turbos your recomending.

BeeR uses a 3037S on their drift RB26 should make the power you want and have strong midrange..afterall that is what they chase in D1!

[shanef]

ian, keep in mind if u purchase a set of turbo's from nengun, ur likely to get hit with import tax, and that will soon blow the price of the turbo's way up.

going a single would be too much hassle and money. you need new manifold, dump pipe, front pipe, intercooler piping, afm piping, water & oil lines. and then it'd be majorly defectable, caus it'd be the first thing the coppers see when they lift ur bonnet.

[IanB]

the 2560R's seem the go at this stage, bang for buck they seem to be the best bet.

Hey shane how come ur never on msn anymore?

well i dnt remember what they are using lol.. i just remember it was an internal gate single.. that wasnt at all that big.. and was deemed quite driveable.

get them from dan, he'll beat anyone's prices

not on msn during the day as im at the toowong office now (until may), and i'm surrounded by stiffs

[Devils_Advocate21]

Ah the 3037S yesss nice turbo
