Turbo Question

[rad100]

ok i just fitted an apexi ax53b70 turbo to my rb20...

now..

were do i put the hose which comes from the acuator??

i have herd to drill into the cooler pipe then put a nipple in then connect it to that???

is that right?

also what is supposed to go were this bolt is???

it was just a little hole with thread and we put a bolt in it to block it!

cheers

probably temp gauge sensor, if your running an evc then the hose connects to it, otherwise to pipe

mad turbo buddy. i have one at home its the p25 version 420hp, was gonna go on my 200sx but sold the car.

[rad100]

yeh i got the p25 also!! with all braided lines elbow eveything i paid 1700 del!!

no shaft play AT ALL!!!

[rad100]

anyone??

[r32woohoo]

yeh you need to tap it into the cooler piping after the cooler

alternatively you can run it to one of the nipples on the plenum that goes to the carbon cannister for now. block off the other hose of course.

sweet so into top cooler pipe?

[r32woohoo]

anywhere between the cooler and the throttlebody but try to keep the hose as short as possible

Just watch your boost gauge to make sure you dont get boost spike, otherwise hook it up between the turbo and the intercooler. The bolt looks like its for a heatshield.

i guess if i put it just before the turbo elbow it would use less tube!!

[r32woohoo]

you need to get the reading from after the cooler because thats the air the engine will be using

before the cooler will be different coz the air hasnt been cooled yet

its negligible i spose but thats how i was told to do it

just get a nipple tapped into the cooler piping that joins to the crossover pipe where the bov is

oh man I wanted to buy this turbo but you got in before me, let me know how you go!

What HP is it rated at because I'm contemplating getting one of these that are rated at 370ps or a HKS2535

You can run the vac line off the manifold, easy to T piece it off the vac line for the standard BOV

Thats were I ran mine from for an external gate - easier than drilling into the piping in my opinion

yeh abu! atm seems really nice! but once i get the full tune ill let u know!!
