ITS NOT MINE ITS MY FRIENDS just wanted to see if anyone has had experience with this turbo as not many ebay ones have been a true bolt on

and once the turbo is fitted it will go back to the tuner to make sure everything is ok

Sounds like you've already made up your mind.

It is a dumb idea, we all think it is a dumb idea, but because this is what you want to hear I am going to say it.

SWEET IDEA DUDE, f**k YEAH BOOST IT WITHOUT A TUNE WHO CARES IT'LL BE SICK!!!

edit: lol you actually did it, kudos for posting up that horrible dyno graph, looks like you took a picture of some waves at the beach haha

  • 9 months later...

hey guys...i hv been using this one for a couple of months now

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/251078425474?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649#ht_2697wt_1271

i have gone to a workshop when my engine was totally stock and the mechanic said that it was ok to use this turbo and will get about 300hp.. .so far i have not been able to 300hp. He told me to get a few after market stuff etc in order to achieve the 300hp...he ran the engine on the dyno more then 5 times but still didnt get the results..and still i didnt know the hp at that time. I was thinking he has not much experience on performance modifications...

Then i got some feedback from SAU members who told me to take my car to another workshop to solve my problems. The mechanic there ran my engine on the dyno more than 20x and now i get the actual readings on the safe tuning which is 196kW. Until now, the turbo has not given me any problem and i would like to try to get 250kW with ECU, injectors and AFM. I hope i will be able to get this running on the same bolt on turbo. I dont mind if this turbo burst (since its a cheapo anyway) as long as my engine is intact. i m shocked that yur friend got 260kW on the cheap turbo... :w00t: btw the mechanic did not advise to use these cheapies if you want to keep yr engine safe and running for a long time.

I know some members here told me to get a good turbo but atm this is the only one i can afford as i m working pt and studying...i am surviving on instant noodles to save n get one of those good brand turbo plus labour to fix it to my car LOL...

Guys..pls dont grill me on my opinion since i m a newbie in the engine modification environment.... :worship:

    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
