I have found a way around the injector / afm maxing out problem so its time for a turbo upgrade.

The Budget: $3000 + fitting bits and pieces ( I will fit myself )

[i:7acb06bd56][u:7acb06bd56]The options so far:[/u:7acb06bd56][/i:7acb06bd56]

HKS GT2835 - 52Trim with .68 a/r (400hp)

What else do you guys reccomed, I need to know th eentire cost so don't tell me X turbo for $2700 only to discover it is external gated.

This is a serious enquiry and will happen later this year.

cam I would hiflow your vg30 turbo and put an external gate on it. you can get a 60-1 front wheel and a bigger exhaust wheel and it will rock the external gate will give you more control and you wont need a custom manifold.

or go td0 6 20 g they are a great combo but a biggish vg 30 is really good if you want more power just go a t4 with a roller bearing center.

cheers

the 2835's are laggy.

Yes it is possible, there are many ways to do itb ut if you are going to the expense of a turbo and ex/gate then you probably have the money for a new manifold ($1000) unless of course you pick one up super cheap.

JMS did this on theier Onevia and simply had a block welded onto the flange on the stock manifold with the wastegate coming up off this and the turbo bolted on.

    • Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
    • I was immediately reminded that your location is QLD. Sounds like a perfect SEQ business idea.
    • And if you can't drive bigger injectors with peak and hold as low impedance injectors during low pulse width, it's even harder to get a nice clean known amount of fuel.
