Anyone knows of american brand ITS turbo (innovative turbos)? I'm planning to put one on my r33, guy said its 500hp lag free turbo, i find it hard to believe but turbos exhaust housing is pretty small with big exhaust wheel and big compressor housing and wheel...anyone heard of these or seen them on a car...?

ITS is a very well-known (in USA) turbo company. There are one or two big name workshops in Aus that are now using these turbos. Innovative Turbo Solutionss also fabricate exhaust manifolds, wastegates, intakes and other turbo components.

There is also an ITS (Australia).

Becareful there's always a fine line between finding a good thing and being the person that posts up saying "dont buy one of these i did and it sucked".

Maybe if you put up the claimed specs and or a link to the website one of SAU's turbo specialists might look at it (discopotato p'raps).

yeah seen them at UAS. Quality of finish is about the same as garret stuff, not sure about internal quality though. They call it a 500hp turbo (going on the basis that the turbo you mean is the internal gate job like in the above picture), but i dont know where they get that from, it looks like a baby next to my 2835ProS that will only make ~460hp at the most.

That said thought i think UAS were getting somewhere round 250 at the wheels which is good for what it is. If i remember correctly i think it is oil cooled only. (?)

edit: if they are US made then that might explain why they call it a 500HP turbo.

I know for a fact US measure HP differently (Typical Yanks :D ) to the rest of the world. Their claimed 500Hp is most likely about 400Hp. It's not that they are BS'ing or exaggerating, but there formula for measuring Hp is completely different to most countries.

ITS is probably the biggest performance turbo manufacturer in the US. Per4manz in perth is the distributor for them and i think Tony Rigoli Performance are also. They use these turbo's on there 8-9 sec cars so theres an indication of there performance. very good turbo.

And so are there dyno measurements. :) I would take about 15-20% of any US HP figures.

And once again, ITS are a respected turbo company.

ITS is a valid brand of turbos, I know UAS has used them on a number of GTS-T's and made good power. I believe they are US made?

Thats the exact turbo I have on my RB20.

Dont get the rush till 4500rpm

And full boost is not till 6k.

Would be much better on RB25.

I made 225rwks@16psi (11.7:1 afr)

Rear AR is .48 too

You can see different ITS turbos available here: http://www.innovativeturbo.com.au/sh.html

Mine is T57-1 sreet series rated 500 hp

Same turbo made 327hp atw on r33 with standard computer, 420hp at 18psi, and im getting my car tuned next week with this turbo with wolf 3d computer and will run 15psi so we'll see what power it'll make, hopefully not too much for standard engine

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By RB25inside · Posted

      Are these the Dmax ones you are in reference too? https://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35#description Not a bad idea to get the uni flange ones. I have sent just jap an email too. Will see what they say lmao. Only thing is the Dmax ones are on a big back order. Low key anything will be better then my OEM ones I got as they are sounding like popcorn when I go under load lmao 😂☠️🪦.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
