Ah, the good old girlfriend excuse. Just put it on and see what happens

Lol.....my GF bought it. I've not heard that before.

As Hadouken said, just put it on. He should have also said "and enjoy your lag".

[Hadouken]

Damn. I forgot that bit!

Going from what the Garrett Turbo website was saying, it's good for drag race setup.

n here I thought GF excuse is never gonna be old.

Anyways thanks for help, does anyone have used any of infamous brands? what was the result?

Better start searching mate. Go to the rb25 dyno thread,

And send your gf back to the kitchen. This would never have happened if she didn't leave the kitchen.

If it was my car i know i wouldnt be fitting it up, it will be laggy but thats the least of your problems... Getting piping etc made to suit, re-tuned and all that stuff just to SEE if the chinese POS works? I would Ebay it and let some other goose give it a go... BUT thats just me

Thanks man ..

do you know any suitable Turbo Upgrade KIT not very expensive ?

What you want to use the car for?

Street / Track / Drift / Drag?

Will account for what turbo setup you go for.

[34GeeTeeTee]

No such thing if you want to do it properly. Even less likely for an R34GTT... If you want to do a cost effective turbo upgrade then i would suggest the HG turbos... Any way you go with a turbo upgrade is going to cost decent money!

[Neo R34 GT-T]

just Street .. atm its 167 KW with intercooler, Turbo Booster, etc ..

You need an ECU, AFM and injectors before even considering a new turbo.

[Neo R34 GT-T]

ya already done .. upgraded the bosch 550cc, Apexi FC, AFM,

[34GeeTeeTee]

You should be fine, go have a read of the HG thread along with a squizz at the RB25 dyno section etc....

My car was running 200kw when i got it with high flow turbo, Power FC, Standard AFM, Standard Injectors etc.... I upgraded the injectors to 550cc and ran 250kw still running the standard AFM (However i would suggest you upgrade it if you are going for a retune anyway), make sure your fuel pump is up to the task and ideally have exhaust, cooler and some form of boost control.... There are many ways around making power but simple ways are very effective!

I'd keep it subtle but responsive for a street tune.

Upgrade to a R34 GTR N1 turbo (Ball Bearing Steel Internals).

Which is equivalent to a Garrett -7 or more so very similar.

For a bit more top end go for a Garrett -9.

GTT dude... Not GTR?

LOL!

My mind set is in GTR on SAU.

But I meant he could buy 1 turbo, not buy 2 of them.

[34GeeTeeTee]

haha thought so!

Best off keeping it simple..... My original highflow was all factory bolt up, so for stealth and cost reasons he should aim for somthing like that.... Other GTT's out there making good power with them, mine didnt as the tuner was a retard.... Since then i got bored and continued on to a high mount, but the cost outweighs the cost of the car so when you see a post "Not very expensive"you generally steer away from MOST aftermarket setups

Yeah like you said and yes, that was going to be my other suggestion, Hi-Flow the stock R34 GTT turbo.
