HI guys, I'm hoping someone can help me.

Here is my story

I got an upgrade to my r33 SII the turbo upgrade was done by GCG. I got the 450HP hi flow Ball bearing turbo. Now my problem is that it’s over boosting. Research has led me to believe it’s because of the exhaust outlet is too small. I have been searching for a VG30 single turbo housing but to no avail, everyone wants to sell me the whole thing.

So if anyone can assist with a VG30 rear housing it would be much appreciated.

So far, I have spent

$200 for an old r33 SI turbo

$1750 to hiflow

$270 Sard Fuel Reg

$220 Fuel pump

$750 Power FC

$2500 Unique to have it all installed

It’s been costly so far and im looking at another $1000

Not sure where to go from here

get the internal waste gate welded shut and run an external wastegate. just a little 38mm one should do the trick

that was an option but I was speaking to scott from insight he informed me that he did that with a 200 and didnt fix the problem so i dont know if mines going be the same.

thanks for the reply

      V36 2008 Coupe Wiring Differences with Android Screen

      By sausagepianist · Posted

      Hey all, I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.  I have a 2008 Japanese import V36 coupe with nav but without Bose. I bought one of those AliExpress android screens, which for the most part works really well.  The only thing that doesn't work is the air con controls (well sort of) and the factory reverse camera.  The AC can be controlled fine but it doesn't report the change in temp and mode to the screen, and the volume knob/other audio controls from the panel don't register on the learning app.  I am pretty certain that the problem is the difference in the head unit between base model (Nav but no Bose) 2007-2009 coupes and anything after 2009.  Mine is the one with the blue connector all the way to the right as seen in this forum post:  The reason I think this is there is one wire left over that doesn't fit anywhere on this head unit, or in the factory screen which also uses different connectors to more recent versions.  I've seen the upgrade from OWC, and have sent the guy a message on eBay but no response yet.  I also don't particularly need the whole kit, just *maybe* an adapter for this one cable.  Did anyone else here have the same problem, or have any insight about what I can do to get this working?  I have been in contact with the seller but all they seem to be able to do is ask for more pictures and videos. Minor edit to add:  I have been researching and found a screen on Aliexpress that actually specifies my head unit in the listing, so these things do exist.  I will contact the seller to see if the wiring adapters are interchangeable with other screens.   Thanks in advance!
