*just Blew My Turbo*

[dori34]

hi boo5tr, got a VQ30DET turbo (similar to VG30)

its good for around 215rwkw on 1bar.

good upgrade for RB20 & RB25.

only thing u need to do is remove the rear housing from old turbo and put it on this so it bolt straight up to your manifold & dump.

if you're interested pm me,

im after $170 and add $25-$35 for postage interstate.

Cheers

[boo5tr]

thanks mate yeah i saw the add before,just trying to decicde what im going to do,will most likely get another standard one and go from there,but ill let ya know anyway,cheers

if it's going to take a few months to save up for a upgraded turbo, then it's probably not such a good idea.

the reason for upgrading usually would be more power, which in turn can cause more things to break...

get another good condition stocker on there, run 10psi, and you'll be fine.

i dont know what the original guys income is like????? all i'm saying is if he buys another stocker (12 ish years old) whats to say it will handle 10psi for long? its the luck of the draw, even at standard boost theres no guarantee.

mine died so i bought a second hand hi flow off here, best and worst thing i ever did, gave a good power boost and got me hooked, now i need more.

[dori34]

^ lol

you'll always want more power!

you'll always want more power!

Unfortunately when ever i open my wallet to get more power its empty......

[08yannch]

just blew my stock turbo in my 33 its a 96 series 2.

I just put a r32 actuator in and it read 1 bar within 5 minutes she made a pop/whistle noise!!!lol

that is to bad

i use to run mine on 1bar a wile ago and was going to do it when i next go down to the track now im not ever going past 7psi i cant afford my car lol

but i have gone with out my car for a wile and it is hard but sometimes u have to. i say save-up and get a new turbo but dont go stupid 1bar is plenty

so i say go with something that can do 1 bar safely and if u need more power there are other things u can do to add that extra kick

[shotter]

So can anyone tell me how you can get more power out of a high flowed turbo?

[Taso84]

Id get a new turbo if i were you.

Thing is with imports to be able to afford one means not just being able to purchase it, but affording all the dramas that go with imports:

high insurance costs

high fuel consumption + higher price of high octane petrol

chance of blown turbos

chance of blown motor

increased risk of speeding fines

increased risks of canary

If you require your car for work/uni with no other viable transport options being available then a skyline is not a correct choice of vehicle for you.

Barring that, my suggestion is that you take your car off the road for a few months, (which will help u save money) tell every1 u lost ur license due to the draconian traffic offence regulation in this state, and use PT/sponge lifts off parents/mates/GF/Sisters and save enough for upgraded turbo. At least you'll have a reward at the end of it all

[Taso84]

So can anyone tell me how you can get more power out of a high flowed turbo?

install it on ur car and get a dyno tune

[shotter]

install it on ur car and get a dyno tune

Yea done that. Now what?

[boo5tr]

Another question to anyone with a stock turbo that has been hi flowed.

How much will it cost me?

and whos better on prices/quality MTQ OR AVO in the dandy area? as its closer to my work

[Pal]

anyone know how much more power you can get out of a stock turbo with VQ30DET rear housing. i got 290rwhp with stock. have got a high flow on at moment but having problems with controlling boost

I have a rb25 neo turbo on mine at the moment. Series 1 rb25det and made 203.6rwkw on 11psi with ecu an fuel pump. Have upgraded so it might be for sale what you offering.

[W0rp3D]

EDIT

Missed the vQ part, mine is vG and it has a t4 front on it as well.

[Taso84]

Yea done that. Now what?

Thats it, but dont forget that u'll prob also need to upgrade injectors, fuel pump and AFM

Have u done all that? should get a pwr figure of 230 - 250 rwkW from memory

[shotter]

The pump is done, the injectors aren't near maxing out and the afm is fine.

[boo5tr]

cheers for the feedback guys,i just got a 2nd hand stocker so ill see how it goes
