R33 Gts-t Turbo Recommendation

[Simon-S14]

Ah yeah didnt think about that. Once you have a 4" intake, the 3" afm will become a restriction and also annoying changing diameters if you did leave it there.

What options are there to remain with a 3" intake. I know simon you will recommend the 4" intake but think about it from a stealth on the street point of view. Is it possible to get an anti surge housing with a 3" intake on a GT30?

on another set up we did on a mates street car same turbo as mine mounted on stock manifold. used a 4-3inch black silicon reducer and painted black hard pipe to the AFM. cant really tell that its a 4 inch intake on turbo unless you look right at it.

Thats a great idea, do you think it reduced power?

This seems to be a restriction for people trying to use reponsive turbos but still make ~275rwkw.

The hks gt2835 pro s kit comes with a 4inch-->3inch reducer, must be ok

[CeJay]

Have a hks 2835 pro s myself, happy with the power and lag/response.

I dont understand, how is that related to "R33 Gts-t Turbo Recommendation, most responsive for 275rwkw"

Because on the street it will be just as fast as 275kw with his laggier turbo for example, I think you could get 260kw out of it if you used E85 quite easily.

theres no way its a restriction.. you can flow 300 rwkw or even 350 rwkw of air thro 3 inch pipe no worries.. think about intercooler pipes and how they flow large amounts of air under pressure and yet are around the 2.5 inch mark

i have a apexi ax53B70, had it tuned the other day and made 240kw on 18psi with 555cc injectors, pfc, z32, 3" exhaust, fmic. but was told i wont get any more out of it. pretty annoyed as i spent just under 2k on it and was told i would see 250 with ease. although i am very happy with the response

how much does a 3071 go for?

do you know which version of the ax53B70 you have? there are two different versions the 320ps one and the 380ps one. You may have the 320ps one which would explain the power?

[LANDSCRIBBLE]

Ok so after going through this thread it seems the garrett 3071 turbo is the best choice since it can achieve around the 280rwkw mark with the least lag???

Im from perth, would anyone know a rough price for one of these? also does it bolt onto my intake and dump pipe?

I just dont wanna get my stock r33 turbo highflowed only to get bored of it down the track and wished i had'nt skimped out, and bought something a bit more expensive.

No chance in a straight line. Maybe on a really tight track.

The HKS 2835 Pro S is pretty damn responsive.

I think the HKS 2835 Pro S turbo wins the prize of most responsive turbo to make 275rwkw on 98 fuel.

+1

very happy that I went that way

much love for the anti surge housing... i have 4 inch hardpipe straight to Air filter (afm is on other side of pipework) and the spooling sound is insane! greatest sound on earth hahaha

i'm running a 4-3" custom metal pipe off mine and yeh... sounds awesome

Yeah Thats what i bought...will hopefully post some results soon...

you will need to modify your intake pipe..as its 3 inch...

for the kit..3k...new

if your lucky you'll get a s/h one for half that ..If your game enough to go s/h turbo route you'll get a good BB jobbie and there is plenty that will make that power...but buyer beware...

EDIT>>Actually just looking may as well get this for the same price...More power just as responsive..

Yeah in a drag race the outright power would definitely win but around the street and tight hills it would be very close.

[DR 32R]

Seeking an opinion on this one. Like the price! Going for street use and response over max power.

Is that for an RB25? That wont make anywhere near 275rwkw on an RB25.

I think it will be too restrictive and lack any sort of top end. Just use a 0.63 housing on a GT30 turbo and it will be super responsive and wont restrict the top end as much.

[HEKT1K]

that turbo is for a Silvia

[DR 32R]

Thought so

yeh i found out after getting it tuned i have the one with the smaller exhuast housing

hypergear can help fix that with some highflow work or a new rear housing

When doing this do you still have the AFM mounted on the intake side? Or in the cooler piping?

If on the intake do you get any problems with reversion?

yeh might look into it, i am happy with the result but for the money i paid i expect more.
