has anyone used these guys b4: <a href="http://www.billetturbochargers.com/Turbo_rebuilds_and_hiflows.ews">billet turbochargers</a>, i think they are in Qld.

i want to highflow the stock rb20 turbo and have ~200rwkw, with as close to stock response as possible :P

i think a stage1 should hopefully do it (290hp). And if you can be bothered to read all that crap on that page it looks impressive lol.

just wondering has anyone used them or heard of them, some feedback would be great and if anyone can recall the prices? i emailed them jst waiting on a response..

and while we are at it, is there any place down here in vic that will highflow the rb20 turbo, recommendations or experiences??

ATP, 1198 Dandy road, Murrumbeena (95694764) will do high flows. Cost is around the 1500 mark. Speak with Kyp. Non ball bearing cartridges though....

They call it the stage 3. it is capable of 250kw and is known as the sierra/sierra due to the compressor wheel/exhaust wheel combo.

With the price you paying for a hiflow, in my opinion you're better off buying a second hand HKS2530 turbo for $700~

I spent another $900 ontop to rebuild it and have practically a brand new 2530 with new bearings and seals for $1600... (rebuilt by rotomaster http://www.rotomaster.com.au/)

The same company also sells garrett turbo's and can do hiflow's too i think.

ATP's attitude towards me turned me away from them and got nothing but perfect service from rotomaster

I also received poor attitude from ATP. IT wasn't for a rotor or a VL so he wasn't interested.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
