Ok i have been reading up on different turbo setups for the GTR

ive been thinking on going single turbo (650 - 750Hp) with one big intake splitting off to the two air flow meters.

but i would still like a twin setup just get two bigger turbos say (400 - 450HP) with custom manifold etc.

I would greatly appreciate others opinions on here, like what they think the pros and cons are and what they personaly think of the two setups?

Cheers

:P

Hope you got forged internals to support the setup :P

HKS GT2835R's support 420ps each, are high mount and work pretty well from what I have heard. They are pricey though.

Then theres the other options of T51/T88 etc...

Id personally go the 2835's. They were on GTR-700 when it was street registered and it was damn quick.

Nah T88 is too big plus its not BB

as for internals yeah granted you need them for massive power, but with a single turbo setup you dont need massive power and heaps of boost to start with and the standard internals can take some power before a rebuild is nessasary ive heard up to 500 - 600HP which is all i would want to start with then once the engine needs a rebuild do it properly then crank the boost up and go after massive power... but as i said im just thinking about it cause i have family in all the different automotive areas, from exhaust shops to tires. and i was thinking a single turbo would be so much cheeper could get something like this or this for like 2.5K where two good turbos cost like 5.5K and a nice tuned lenth exhaust manifold would only cost me like 600 and get all the pipping done would be so much cheeper hehe and would look cooler too :(

    • My extinguisher mounted like this unscrewed a little (Maybe from the chair sliding forward) and dumped a bit of white on my mats. I'll need to get a more narrow one for future.
    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
