The GReddy Kit can run more boost than your motor could handle on stock internals...

You just need to buy a boost controller

i'd get ricer's kit cos he's already gone through all the drama of getting it setup to run on the D series. The G reddy kit you gotta put it in yourself and then get the other stuff done, like BOV boost controller, and then tune the ECU to get some decent power out of it, not to mention wiring in the ECU

thanks yeah, im checking it out soon hopefully
my car has done 14XXXX kms should i get the engine rebuilt before i boost it?
have most people done that?

Na as long as the motors been looked after :)

If you can afford it why not..

I got mine done but only coze my rings were gone :o

Quick update Guys

120kw @ only 5500 RPM with the same problem even after the boost controller installed.

11psi and as the RPM go up the boost dies due to 2" exhaust lol

We hit 129kw at 12psi one run but backed the boost off for safety.

As for the whole pod filter thing Weq was going on about..
Good in theory but not true..

I lost power using the GReddy filter.. so the heat shelfed ones saying :thumbsup:

Nuff said

Need a new head gasket though :(

Luke

new engine would be better

Sort of.

I got the compressor map for the td04-e. With our engines, its starts loosing efficiency above 12. Its on the edge of 70% on 14psi, any higher, and it just drops, so all ur doing is blowing hot air.

Saw this car rolling onto the Dyno yesterday @ TODA, Pitty I didnt stayed around 2 watch it pump the numbers but looks the goods :)
