I want to start upgrading but don't have the budget to drop 15k at once, if i was to do one first which would be better and why? -
Yuh. It is very rare for a single turbo to throw ceramic into the engine. Quite common on GTRs. As I posted above. Mine did destroy the O2 sensor on the way out though! Plastic compressor is fine with the temperature. It's not some flimsy PE/PET/PP thermoplastic. It's a thermoset resin with reinforcing material in it (a composite, as posted by @Lithium above). The compressor never sees much more than 100°C because it's never boosting very high. If you boost it high enough to make a lot of temperature, then the turbine will depart the scene and stop the party anyway. -
From what I understand, it's a ceramic turbine and a plastic compressor (not sure how it doesn't melt then lol) I heard the series 2 r34 gtt has a metal turbine but I doubt that. @GTSBoy When you blew your standard neo turbo it didn't cause damage from memory just the turbine ended up in the cat? -

That's what the people want, unfortunately. We can argue about whether this is cultural or marketing but in the US people like big SUVs because they want the capability all in one vehicle. -
The S2 R33 and R34 both run a nylon composite compressor on a ceramic turbine. R34 has a larger a/r turbine housing
