Ugh... t04e... the good ole poor mans turbo :bomb_ie:

Either way, totally dependant on the spec of the T04e you have.

There are probably 100 different combinations.

Be prepared for poor power delivery, and poor response... i know, i had one (.82 rear, 500hp front end)

^ as above.

You've mentioned a 450/500hp turbo and a 700hp turbo... i think you need to research what your doing

i understand thy are very different..... but im struggling to decide...whether i want my car to be just big horse power... or i still do what ive been doing for drift...

ill start at injectors.. atm its pushing 212 rwkw... with the injectors they should unlock a little more power as the stockies are only at about 75%.... r31 nismoid... whats your suggestion on this whole thing... cause i really dont know what is better and what not

Well its generally determined by cost.

GT35 = rebuild plus a lot of other stuff, 15k i reckon is a good number to match with 350rwkw.

GT-RS, bolt on, still within the motor limit and good response... less than half the GT35 route too

It wont look as flash though as its not a big donky cover like the t04e probably has on it (.7AR front), but will do the job a fair portion better.

t04z is bigger again & a great turbo. I got a gt3540 and once it was too expensive to go back i reslied i really should of got a t04z. My turbo is the biggest draw back in my whole system. Only thing is tho on a built 2.5l engine it will be laggy. I guess it just depends on what your application is.

what if i decided to get the exaust houseing change to like a .61.... wouldnt that reduce lag... cause i wanna drift on track....and with a laggy turbo its not much fun.. godl..turboz are so ridiculiously over priced!! :D

Turbo's when properly taken care of, should end up being cheaper then your engine oil.

their service life exceeds that of most engine rebuilds in the diesel world i hear.

Have you checked the cost of a modern, internally lubricated supercharger?... :D

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
