I'm trying now to host it so you can see it better, It wouldn't let me post a bigger pic, I don't really know where your going with this but If I've made a mistake with one of the figures by a few kw thats all it is, is a mistake I tried to calculate it as best I could

Hi Buster, I am not going to scratch around for minor errors in data , just trying to get an understanding, data is my thing remember. From what I can see there is a pretty goodly amount of breathing from 5500 rpm to 7500 rpm. Is there camshafts, porting, inlet and exhaust manifolds etc holding the airflow up?

GHEY?! Why come in here, single out sydneykid, ask for his opinion then go ****ing nutz when he doesnt agree with you?

Some people like torquey track suited power

Some people like peakey drag suited power

Its a compromise like everything else in this fun game we play. It doesnt matter what someone else thinks of your dyno graph / quart mile times / turbo / haircut / makeup as long as you enjoy your car.

true, there is no good and bad turbo otherwise one company would be 'the be all' and the rest would be bunkrupt, its all to do with preference. But I think what is being said that Trust turbos are not a TRUCK turbo, they are performance turbos which have proven themself. And in Busters case he has a proved it.

Nothing to do with these averages and genius maths figures, i mean damn as long as it does what he wants it to do, and produces good results, its fine right? there might even be be better but everything comes at a cost.

It has tomei 264, 8mm lift cams, It also has a greddy plenum as far as I know its got some description of head work as it was listed in the specs when I bought the car but I have no idea what is done

Other then the plenum (that you don't think much of from reading your previous posts) its pretty well the same mod wise as HPI R34 I thought

i dont want to compare each others prices here.

u know its a material world, people would rather spend the extra dough and product with a name which is also proven. The Beauty of buying say a trust turbo or any name brand is its off the shelf(bolt-on), make it as easy as possible and at the end of the day you know what to expect.

it might not interest people who enjoy life researching every aspect, ins and outs, pro's and con's. but at the end of the day everyone has a different market.

You can get someone to do it all for you etc, and run the risk of them ripping you off, or go in with a set price full instructions and try yourself.

Goes for buying a computer, it would be alot cheaper building it yourself installing the software, than going to Dick Smith/Harvey Norman and buying one off the shelf, but then again everyone may not have the knowledge and experience you do.

referring to previous posts man...i just dont think there is anything wrong with the TD-06, to each there own...and you know that these turbos are much more affordable, especially in the maitanence dep.

and everything comes at a cost...if thats loosing that extra 0.9999~% then there must be something that makes up for it right?

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
