T70 High Mount Turbo Kit, Any Good?

[khairul]

Ive seen a T70 turbo kit which comes with the turbo a high mount exhaust manifold and a 35mm external wastegate with a 12 psi spring in it, all this for 800 dollars. Im not really familiar with turbo types and so on so im wondering if this would flow alot better thatn the stock turbo on my r32 gts-t??? Would the gains be worth the money spent???

Cheers

it cant be good for $800 and sounds like a lag monster for the little ol rb20

yeah it does sound a bit too good. Of course, its on ebay... :lol:

its a cheap chinese turbo that will fail under load....i.e. one power pull. If you can get the turbo properly rebuilt balanced, you will have a very laggy turbo best suited to a pantec truck

:lol: Ok i get the point. So what kind of turbo would be the best setup, going for power and response? Im trying to figure out what suits the rb20's lack of displacment

what mods have u got and how much money do you have

[khairul]

Right now the car has got Blitz Nur spec cat back exhaust, apec front pipe, Apex avc-r boost controller, will have a apex gt front mount cooler soon and greddy type-s bov. Not much but the car is on its way up so i havent had the chance to spend money on it. Budget woiuld be $800-1500 max.

the turbo kit is not bad in this price range (only 800-900 dollar), only thing need to do is balance it(300-400 dollar). for street use, change the rear housing to get more response. before i used similar kit to install my gtr and got 324.3rkw in 17psi (turbo is really 70 trim, larger than t04r and use .70 rear housing).

they have two types turbo, one is use garrett, the other is use kkk. mine is kkk internal.
