Dash - Turbo

[AMR33]

Did a little search - no result.

I have been reading and people refer to "Dash 5/7/9" turbos. What does this mean? Is it the relevant size of a turbo? What does "dash" mean? And how do you know what size a Dash 7 turbo for example equates to (2860? etc etc)

Cheers

Lol, 'dash' is actually a '-', they are all 2860 variants hence 2860-5. Just quicker as they are all bolt on to the rb26dett

How much power do you want?

What size is your engine?

Is it built?

What is your threshold for "lag/late boost response"

What if your driveline like?

How much do you like a full wallet?

Answer those and we will tell you.

None of these questions are applicable to me mate. I wanted general advice on what Dash # meant, that is all.

Oh i see. so a dash 9 is 2860-9. Bigger number = bigger compressor??

So what size is the r32 GTR size?

GTRs don't come with dash turbos at all, they have a nissan specified turbo built by garrett

But the sizing goes in order of 7-9-5-10, I know doesn't make sense or have any order but that just how it goes

[AMR33]

I see. It just clicked that when people say dash they actually mean dash as in hyphen. So althgouh GTRs dont have dash turbos; dash 7,9,5,10 are compatible with any RB26?

[r32-25t]

Yes they bolt onto rb26s

"Dash" or "-" has nothing to do with the sizing of the turbo.

It's just the part number of the turbos we refer to when upgrading the turbos on the RB26.
