blown exhaust-turbo gasket

[cefiro]

Has anyone replaced one of these, easy/hard. From the looks of things its not so easy. Will I need to remove the dump pipe. How much play is in the exhaust. CAn I unbolt it and then slide it off with the exhaust still attctched to the turbo??

Also found out that my turbo is not a HKS2510 but a HKS2535. hmm maybe time for some new injectors and push the boost up. Thats one good thing to come from this I spose.

bit off topic... but instead of replacing the injectors cant u just get a pressure regulator?

sorry off topic again but i was wondering how much rwkw you were producing with this turbo, and what else you had to have to effectively run it. eg cooler, fuel pump

thanks

already got one, plus a monster bosh fuel pump, the thing sounds like a swarm of bees in the boot. I really need to get on the dyno and see I spose. Am getting some cam gears soon so will get those on and run it and see from there if its worth getting it chipped again (been done in japan). Its chewing some feul at the moment, leaving lots of carbon build up on the rear bar so I know its running rich.

Have got a GTR intercooler, oil cooler, 3in from the turbo. As for rwkw I dont know havent run it yet. I would be guessing around the 200rwkw at around the 1.15 bar as a guess. had a run with a WRX the other night he had front mount and exhaust etc and beat him so has some ponies.

what do you recon I can get from the turbo 1.3 - 1.4 bar if I have the thing remapped. I will get a better indication after I put the cam gears on and then run it.

What sort of power should I get from a 2535 on an RB20???

220 -240 rwkw very doable

check th ecolour of your injectors if they are yellow/gold they are gtr injecotrs chances are its been tuned for higher boost take the car to a good workl shop to do the dyno run . 1.4 bar should be doable but i wouldnt run that all day

sounds like a nice car
