Going Natro From Turbo

[avalanche]

hi i have a r33 turbo. need to go from turbo to no turbo cause i am 16 and cant drive the turbo car on ps. after i take the turbo out and put in a manifold, what else has to be done? does the ecu need tuning of something? any info would be aperciated thanks

[Craved]

the car is still a GTST on the rego .. so that will stop you driving it

The car is still classified as a Turbo Model by the build plate.

Therefore, removing the turbo - does not work

There are numerous topics on this, and all have the same ending. Its still illegal.

Cheers.

Not to mention that a standard Gtst without a turbo, will be utterly shit to drive, and alot slower than a standard Gts.

Sell it, use the money to buy a GTS and a nice set of rims.

removing the turbo on a turbo car will make it more gutless than a natro one. they run lower compression than the NA do account for the extra boost that the turbo puts in. and to change the compression you would have to rebuild the motor.

+1

probably on turn 3 at that

I didn't think that law applied to GT4

just keep the car, buy some puss box and work on having a sweet 33 that has been a 4yr labor of love. that way when you can finally take it out of the yard you will respect your 33 like it should be.

and your mates will be pissed because they will have pimped exel's that just make you cry.

the ONLY thing bad about these new laws is exactly that.. ^^^ pimped excels...

LoL!

Car will be gutless with no turbo.

Compression is way to low to run as a NA motor.

Like everyone said, get another car to drive around till you get off your P's, or worry about it when the time comes (when you get your P's)

Thanks,

Abu
