hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I want to see a boost graph, my guess is it's got a whole guts full at 140km/hr

The power to rpm ratio is wores then my 3540 mokup (hypergear atr45) while 160kws short. Looks very lazy and not making much power either. Not a very good turbo.

well there must be something wrong with the tuner/turbo or engine cause it was very close power very close dyno to not much difference at all across the whole board

lets just think its a $400 turbo hg are 1500 so its not a bad power figure for the price

Have you seen a dyno graph for a 3071? That dyno graph up there is disgusting. Sags and flops and makes power at what about 5krpm then falls off all the way to red line. I bet that housing on the turbo will glow red after a couple runs.

If I had to do it all over again, knowing what I know now, I would still go hypergear over this turbo. Keep it for a Civic, a skyline deserves more.

yeah i kno but its not mine and not in a skyline his goin to a gt3076 just wanted to do this at a laugh

and i know his dyno graph of the gt3071 i was there and watched it

not goin to name names but the tuner is known for bad tunes he has done a fair few shitty tunes here in melbourne

sayin that he might goto a different tuner and try another power run of a new fresh tune

his 3071 was pretty much the same as the dyno i put up there not much difference at all so giving the 3071 dyno sheets are better then this then it clearly rules out the turbo

so its either engine/ or tuner

i know you want this to be the most awesome turbo in history, but face facts... it isn't.

at this point you cant really say anything about the tune/tuner as it doesn't have one.

yes you DO need to tune for the different turbo, even if it makes similar power. also the kw figure is probably the least important part of the tune, and not the reason we tune cars. it's not how many kw you make, but how you make them

this is what a ~280rwkw turbo on an RB 25 SHOULD look like:

note the response.

yeah i know what your saying joey , i kno its not the best turbo but what im trying to say with the tuner who tuned his engine using a gt3071 the dyno graph looked excatly the same as the one i posted which seems to tell me its the tuner as it didnt look very good even with the garrett turbo with a full tune

i dont want to name the guy who tuned it but i kno alot of people have had problems with him maybe i should tell my mate to go visit trent and get a REAL tune done

i guess thats there opinion as i dont really have one as its not mine i couldnt care less only stating that its still goin strong for a shitty $400 bolt on turbo with no tune

its booked in for a tune next week so i guess we will see what its like

Kudos to him for at least giving it a go, after all it's not that often you see proper results of a eBay turbo posted up. It may not be as good as a legit garret, but at least it's making some sort of boost...then technically it's doing what it's meant to do...in saying that though I would have waited for the proper one...and he can't sell it and make any means of profit off it...it's already a cheap turbo, a used eBay one you'd probably have to pay someone to take it away haha...

Nice job anyway. Like others have said a photo of the turbo on the car would be nice...Cheers!

    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
    • Been so long since I have been here,seeing SDU is dead. I had that problem on my gtr in 2006 but luckily there was no engine damage,it was inspected by Hytech Engines,race bearings and extended crank collar put in and that was about it. Hopefully yours is sorted now.
    • Would it not be cheaper to just spray nitrous?
    • I've got cash, it's the NA LOLS I'm after now Plus, I've had a few boosted cars, and it is soooo easy to turn a reliable car into a unreliable drivetrain eating money pit monster by just paging up and chasing more My power goal for the NC is to try for a reliable naturally aspirated 150kw or 200hp atw (I'm old, and the old naturally aspirated cherry of 100hp per litre is a goal that I would like to hit), no more is really needed for what I use the car for,  so a additional 5kw is what I'm chasing now,  that 5kw is about $3k away, I think....
