Didnt mean to sound like i was having a go!!

Just a few things i was confused about thats all :rofl:

You didn't offend mate sorry just real tired and cranky from the weekend.

I guess that this turbo is probaly more efficient at higher boost levels and needs to be boosted high to get the big power.

All I know is when it runs 20 psi the power difference is huge. That kick you back in the seat feeling is nuts.

why its so laggy I'm not so sure other than the fact its a normal sleeve bearing turbo from what I can gather.

Sure it wouldnt be helping, but i wouldnt attribute too much blame to the fact that its a plain bearing turbo. Have you got a part number etc so i can have a look at the spec of turbo?

What are all the details of the mods, exhaust brand diam, qty of mufflers, cat converter, air filter, piping, BOV, intercooler etc, pic of the engine bay????

It could be a support system drama more then the turbo beign too big, or laggy in its nature.

IS the turbo a T3 flange or are you using an adaptor to bolt it onto the std manifold, is it the std manifold???

LOL..sorry about all the questions, but i like mulling over these sorts of setup/problems/performance differences:)

The turbo is from UAS and has a 0.48 rear housing.

As for the front a/r I have no idea and I'm not sure about a part number. (Sorry I aint much help there).

Its a T3 flange that has an adapter plate made up to allow it to have an internal gate and to bolt onto the skyline dump.

--------------------------------------My mods include-----------------------------------

Trust BOV------------->Replaces the stock one and can be plumbed back if needed.

Blitz intercooler------> 600 by 300 by 76mm

ECU--------------------> Remapped to run 550 cc injectors and a z32 AFM(My personal tune on the conservative side)

Pipeing in the engine bay is stock and really should be replaced with bigger less restrictive pipeing.

Exaust is a 3 " turbo back system with a resonator, 3" cat, 5" ricey muffler :P

Injectors are 550cc pintop rx7 types.

AFM is a Z32.

Boch 040 intank fuel pump good for 600 hp I think.

I'll try and get some pics of the turbo and engine bay tonight if I can.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
    • Modern oils are amazing. Add tyres to that as well.
