Very easy to do, there's a guide in the tutorial section for RB25DET in the R33's.... but google it for your RB20 and I'm sure you'll find something with picture that's easy enough follow.

Cheaper and does exactly the same thing. Plus it looks a little more like stock, compared to a (potentially) bright blue boost tee sitting in your engine bay - something some people (i.e. me) may want.

Yeah I was about to buy a sleeper one of those, but even that stands out more than I want it to. I want metal colours, brass and cruddy aluminium in my engine bay.

Other option is, if you have a pod filter... get/make a pod filter enclosure. I'm about to make mine next weekend hopefully, it will go long enough back to completely cover my turbotech boost tee as well as covering my pod/shielding heat away from it.

What makes a turbotech better than turbosmart?

Guvna1 search the forum and you will find the thread on the turbotechs and everyone running them. They are a pneumatic application not bleed like most of them, more stable, will not spike, set and forgot and can run upto 2bar all for $39.

Given that the turbotech is blue im not quite sure where your going with the stock looking comment???

It's not a bright royal blue like the turbosmart one is. It's kinda of this... 'old' looking blue paint. Not explaining it very well, I know. It also doesn't have any markings/words/brands written on it, so is less obvious.

Fairo, at the end of the day it depends where you put it under the bonnet but if your like me then its out of the way and you forget about it :)

ive got my turbotech cable tied to the underside of the stock solenoid bracket. you can barely see it, and even if you did, it looks almost factory.

and +1 on the stable boost. mine has never spiked, holds flat all the way.

      You are correct, the earlier the torque, the earlier things snap

      Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy

      Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.

      Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷

      I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
