Turbo Choice.

[Savage Bliss]

Hey guys. Don't know if there's already a thread on this. But just wondering if I could get a bit of advice. I've had many mixed opinions about this topic.

I currently have and R32 RB20 (4 Door) with just the right amount of mods. I've done what I can without taking that next big step... Turbo choice!

I'm think I'm tossing up between a GT28 RS or maybe a GT2530 or or somthing similar from the Apex-i series or the TD- series. All proper precautions have been made.

Just after some feedback, thanks guys.

HKS GT-RS

great balance between reponse and power

no balance on price :lol:

you pay for quality... simple as that

[silver gts-t]

true, but only to a certain point. after that you paying for a name.

[Savage Bliss]

True that. GTRS huh? That's what I was thinking. I mean, I'm not after massive amounts of power just something a little more punchier than waht I've got, something that will light them up with ease.

Although I've heard that the TD-05 could a likely contender. Might be a little easier on the pocket as well.

Anyone have one on their Skylines or know anyone who has?

Any info... Cheers.

TD-05 would be a great choice as well.

[Savage Bliss]

Cool. Thanks guys...

GT-RS on an RB20 sounds a bit big to me.

Maybe a Td06-18g might be the go.

Does the TD-06 have T3 flange though?

Why don't you try one of the Garrett range. They a much, much cheaper than the HKS alterantive and every bit as good in their function and their quality. Try www.turbobygarrett.com for a starter. There are a large number of retailers, a search on this forum will give you a start. There is also an interview with their manager/director in this month issue of Zoom.

I've been told to have a look at The GT2860R, could be a goer, but not sure if I'm after something that big, I can't really find a mid-way point with any of the GT series. That's why I thought somehing from the TD range.

You do need a new manifold for the TD range.

I think you mean the RS - just pays to be careful with the nomenclature. The GT28-60R is for the RB26 (You need two for that motor - part number 707160-5 or 7). But have a look at their comparison sheet for the medium sized units. Address should work http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarre...rison_sheet.htm

Then dig out the compressor maps to find out how the airflow matches in with your requirements. Don't just pick a turbo based on it's descirption of 300hp or 500hp or whatever hp.
