T3/t4 Rb25 Highflowed.

[chalky]

Hey guys im looking at upgrading the turbo on my RB20.

At the moment i have a Rb25det S2 turbo on it and it goes alright but i just want a little more.

I stumbled across a Turbo thats off a VL Turbo thats got a RB25 in it.. The turbo is a HighFlowed T3/T4.

Im not the most experienced turbo man so i need some feedback and help!

Will this turbo do wonders for my Rb20 as iv got a few more bolt ons to put on also such as Greddy E-MANGE Ultimate, Nismo 555cc, Splitfire Coil Packs

Also since this turbo is highflowed it shouldnt have all the ceramic bits anymore?? they should be steel or will it still be ceramic??

Any help will be muchly appreciated

Cheers

how well is your current setup tuned?

do you want more average power or higher top end power at a given point?

there are ways to make the car quicker without more top end power so keep that in mind

a highflow of your current turbo is probanly the best option (in terms of gain and power) but also probably the most expensive

the problem with the T4/Rb25 VL spec is unknown age, condition and specs, so it could be perfect, or it could be ass

on a 2 litre, its very crucial, whereas on a 3liter (from the VL) any spec will perform half reasonably

yeh mate, this turbo is on a rb25, this vl doesnt have the 3litre its got the rb25det

For starters what is your power goal? Also sell the Emanage to fund the turbo and go a remap/nistune it will be cheaper and probably work better.

Same as your last thread

HKS2530 is what i said then, same again this time.

also cheap and 2nd hand often ring alarm bells - are you buying someone else's problem?

[chalky]

no it has been rebuilt and highflowed and never been on a car since because the vehicle it was goin to be on was knocked off in the mean time

[zebra]

so its a rebuilt Old VL Turbo?

[chalky]

it was a stock vl that had a rb25det and r33 gearbox put in and has a few minor mods but he bought this turbo to get it done up while the original one was on it and it was stolen in the mean time

[zebra]

That didnt answer the question....

I dont care what car it is.....what turbo is it from? RB25, RB30? VG30? etc etc?

[chalky]

it has a r33 front and a t4 back

[Crans]

just buy a blown r33 turbo and send it off to get hiflowed will probably end up cheaper.

[chalky]

this cost $450

[zebra]

its a waste of $450 if it blows up or doesnt make boost until 6000rpm and makes 150rwkws

[R31Nismoid]

There is no way it has a T4 rear mate - it would not bolt on with a T4 flange.

[chalky]

it could have a t3 flange insted???

[bozodos]

just buy a turbo, Hypergear ones are cheap.
