Fitting a Turbo

[Yakuza]

How much do you think they'll charge me if i fit my new turbo ?

its a T3 flanged, and i already have the spacer for it.

thank you

If you did it yourself, nothing I would hope!

Seriously though, it depends on how much is the same and how many mods need to be done. If it's a straight bolt-up including water and oil lines, then I would say it would be done in under 2 hours. Plus a coolant flush I guess. But I'm guessing that some exhaust work may be needed. Add in $200-300 for a custom dump pipe plus fitting.

the guy quoted me $250 to take out and replace my turbo.

he also said i need to change to a highflow cat and put in a downpipe, both costs $560

Is that alright ?

Get a cat from Batmbl in the for sale forums, but you will probably need a custom dump/front pipe. $250 for remove/replace of turbo seems ok I guess, but get a few different quotes from different workshops to be sure.

g, day i was just wondering wat would be a great turbo for handling about 350rwhp , and really through me back in the seat , not real sure on the lag though but as long it will reach boost at 4 onwards, preferably ball bearing . could u tell me wat i have to change to get to the 350rwhp zone i have a front mount and a boost controller . And 2.5inch all the way through budget is 5-6k

thanks guys PHA71

does the hiflow cat makes a lot of difference ?

[akeenan]

switching from a normal cat to a high flow cat you can notice a difference the car feels more free.
