Hello All,

I'm relatively new here but I've been looking around and can't find an answer to my question.
I have a 1996 Series 2 R33 GTS25T i got a KKR 480 turbo from a buddy for less than $180 brand new;
(He totaled his car needed money to get a new one, that's the reason for being cheap) anyways; I'm curious if when
i do swap the turbos will i need to do anything as far as injectors go? I'm putting in new spark plugs this weekend.

I have all the supporting turbo mods
~3" catback exhaust
~Blitz FMIC
~HKS cold air intake
~Greddy BOV

Right now i'm running stock RB25 injectors and coilpacks.
I plan on upgrading these but at the moment i'm saving my money for a proper Garrett or Turbonetics turbo.
I'm also aware that i should upgrade these before i purchase the new big turbo but i'm just wondering if
i can run this small KKR480 off the stock injection and ignition system.

Any help is appreciated.
Cheers!

Okay,

I figured i'd need one of those with a larger turbo;
Yes i'm aware they aren't very reputable or well liked but it's larger than the standard
and i couldnt pass up the deal for how cheap it was brand spanking new.

But the injectors should be okay then?

Thanks for the help Zebra!
Much appreciated man

You're best of leaving it alone to be honest. I know it's not what you wanted to hear but you're going to ruin the car that way. Sell the 480 on eBay or something and use that money to buy a nistune or Powerfc Ecu and go from there.

Also ditch the atmo blow off valve for a standard one because the stock Ecu uses the airflow meter

he doesn't need to ditch the BOV for a standard one...unless he lives in certain ozzy states? it just runs richer for that split second you are changing gears with a atmo BOV.

And potentially like crap at idle as air is drawn in through the bov.

It's great that you're atmo bob works for you, but along with being a cop magnet in Australia, they cause heaps of headaches for guys, and for what gain?

I would rather keep the stock turbo, that KKR 480 dim sim special turbo would lunch itself before the stock one would..

If you're on a budget, save your dollars for a Hypergear High Flowed unit... it will save you from heartache.

BOVs are gay...

just use the stock one, or no BOV :)

lol yep totally gay...so many people hate them....well Australians seem to....the rest of the world doesn't have a problem. :rolleyes:

and no bov just means the air gets measured twice, once on the way in and once on the way out by the AFM.

bov don't leak at idle...and if they do they are either rooted of spring pressure is too slack.

Guys, i live in Japan where it's considered gay if you're not running a BOV lol but i appreciate the help and the OEM turbo is dead. I bought that KKR knowing it was shit but it was also dirt cheap and will do the job until i can buy a proper one.

Anyone happen to know how long of lines i need? I wanto to switch to braided lines now while im in there but not sure what lengths i need.

Again, all the help (and criticism) is appreciated.

Thanks guys!

just buy the Kando kits on eBay, they fit great + super cheap!

Orido's RIDOX Supra doesn't have a BOV and it sounds tits!

Umm, sorry to rain on your parade but many OEM BOV's are designed to leak at idle. Check out the little hole in the GTS-t BOV next time you see one.

    • No......not yet Minister for War and Finances has stated that the Commodore has to go first Not that I am going to modify the NC any more than what it is already modified now.....
    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
