Precision Billet Turbos


Recommended Posts

Nothing that hasn't been done before Darren, Just not on a street car! As long as it doesn't fall off boost between gears it should be ok, remembering that can rev this to over 10 grand if I have to, I'd prefer not to though.

I was about to say "Now you're just starting to get silly..." but really, that happened quite a while ago. That thing is a beast to watch, was glad I got to see it running in the flesh!

Should have said hi, Lith. Unfortunately I wasn't on top of things with the boost control at WTAC, the street and circuit grip level was completely different. Before the hairy last session we even took it outside and tuned it to full traction, then turned it down again for a bit of assurance.

It turned the tyres on the first run, so in between runs, not being able to look over the log, I took a stab at what speed I thought it was breaking out. What I ended up with was 22psi all the way half way through 4th to an agro 45psi which lit the tyres up. Being such a big event rather than pedal, I mashed it and held it flat, and a slight over correction when the front wheel speed was doing 220km/h and the back doing more like 260km/h sent me facing the walls....at least the crowd loved it!

We are revving it to 9000rpm over the line at 164mph.

PTE don't make a TS housing yet, I was speaking to Harry when he was here for the Nitro Champs and they don't feel the demand is big enough.

I actually headed past your area a couple of times to say "Hi" but wasn't sure who you were and the moment didn't seem right for a random to push in and say "Who is PJ???" - then next thing I knew the weekend was done, it really was a blur of an event.... went past so quickly it wasn't funny. First trip to Oz was a goodn' and I'll be back, hopefully just get to see an even crazier S13 :D

Just ordered my 6262 with a T4 twin scroll .84 v band rear and the 4 inch surge slotted front.. lets see just how strong a standard 25de neo really is with 10:1 comp and e70

Aww shit, this should be interesting. Or hilarious. Either way, exciting :P

still ecu and the stupid stupid expensive job of doing turbo lines and fuel lines which is gonna be a surprise $700 in fittings and hose.

Looked at the AI industries surge tank with twin 044's today too but thought f**k it single intake walbro it is!

    • So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?      
    • Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.
    • I did not realise this, I'll contribute more and earn my stripes and retry later. 
    • I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!
