Difference Between...

[Travis_morris]

hey guys...

starting to plan for when my stock RB20 turbo goes pop... I know the R33 series 2 turbo's are bolt on and steel wheels (can handle more boost then the ceramic wheels)... wats the difference between the series 2 turbo and the 34 Neo turbo (cause i was told this would be a good upgrade to) ?

any info would be great

Cheers guys

no the series 2 turbos cant handle more boost because it has a ceramic exhaust wheel and a plastic ( or some sort of shit other than metal) inlet wheel. the neo turbo i believe is bigger not heaps but abit more

[Travis_morris]

so its not really the brightest idea to change to a series 2 turbo then... anyone got any more info bout the 34 neo turbo ?

still trying to search for info as well...

Cheers Trav

you can change it to a series 2 turbo just depends how much boost you wanna push through it

[Travis_morris]

prolly bout 14Psi... at most 16Psi...

34 neo is plastic wheel; if i remember right max boost is 12psi

r33 is ceramic; max boost is 14psi

no point going higher than 12-14psi anways as the turbo wont make anymore power and isnt working it is efficiency range.

R33 S1 is steel front, ceramic rear

R33 S2 is nylon front, ceramic rear

R34 is nylon front, ceramic rear

nylon wheel spools up a bit quicker.. but max on all of them is about 12-14psi..

ive heard of turbo's dieing at 10psi, and then i had mine running ~13psi for 3 years without a problem.

sorry that was a typo above meant to read 12psi & 14Psi Max...

got a mate running a 25 turbo of some sort on his RB20 in his 180 and it made 250ish rwhp which is all im really looking for cause its a daily with a few drift nights & days for good measure so i dont want anything to crazy or silly to drive in peak hour taffic...
