hey i just sold one of those JJR coolers there luke for $150 with a turbosmart boost controller and it was brand new
$1695 for brand new 2871R or $900 for Ryans 2871R with polished front housing :P
Hey man can you send me the link to the sale thread?
so should i go the 2971 or stick with the disco potato? as it is for a track application im leaning ore towards the 28rs... as limbo said its better to loose a bit of power to increase the cars driveability through corners. i already have problems with wheelspin coming out of corners but im hoping i can fix that with an lsd.

^^^ i like this idea as i spend the entire time in between about 5k and redline but that atp place list them at about $1400 australian plus postage... is that good? what does gcg charge for a standard 28rs?
got some 550cc injectors lined up... rx7 ones. apparently they fit

Reece... i read through your thread! interesting about the pcv system.
i have mine set up into a catch can at the moment going from the pcv valve to the catch can and then from the catch can to the IM but i think the actual pcv box is clogged? is that possible?
the hoses seem to be under allot of pressure like under allot of suction (the hose is crumpling in a bit) and i do get a bit of blowby oil in the can but no more then about 50ml in the last 6 months its barly high enough to see on the catch can oil level monitering hose thing...
im a bit concerned. is it possible to clean the pcv system out at all?
ha ha yeah i bought it for my civic but apparently i am changing it agian so hmm had ot sell it :P
a larger rear housing on a turbo will net you more horsepower in the end but not all ways driveablity for example a a .63 rear on a GT30 will spool up later then a .63 on a
T28 so its much of a mushness.
your main concern is to first workout what you want from the setup and set a power level for what you have and your money you have to spend. and work from there.
on a mild setup a T3 or T2 flange isent really going to matter and most T3 setups are T3 because they use an external gate setup like i am doing or because they are on a bigger capascity motor eg S15/14 and 13 use T2 flanged turbos R32/33/34 use T3 they have 6cyc and and silvias have 4 so there is a need for the larger flange.
running it on a standard motor you will never really see the true potential of a say a 2871R as your only going to be running low boost so your waiting for that extra lag for no more power.
Sorry i dont have any rep and cant put up stuff for sale on here atm so i dont have a link but if you want me to put up a pic thats cool i have a few different turbos here atm to.
but its a custom made turbo with the .63 rear caz i like the fast spool :P and has a enlarged front comp cover and T3 comp wheel and internals i was going to use it to run 20psi on my motor but have gone a different direction :P
WOULD YOU LIKE SOME FRONT BAR WITH YOUR FRONT MOUNT
yeah i had a GT28r with a .64 rear.
It spooled up at like 3krpm, but peaked out at high rpm in higher gears.
Need to run more boost to make them better, but on stock internal didn't bother.
With the 2871, its abit lagger but when full boost hits its alot more stronger
^^^ you needed the bigger comp wheel to keep the boost going the GT28R's are good and can run up to about 200RWKW on silvias the b wont get up to that without cracking the motor open

Im not actually that concerned on actual power number... any power increase is great and something like 150kw would help my track times heaps if i can get that. as i said earlier im more concerned about driveability. i dont want crazy amounts of boost up high with a huge lag down low but rather a steady power curve that will produce power right throught to redline. the turbo that will do that for me is the turbo i want lol

so do you think i should pass on the 2871r? ive tracked down a brand new one for $1300 so im tossing up weather i should get it

i think the GT28r is too big.
NO NO GT28r is not to big in fact pros use GT30's with 0.63 rear for VTec B's
You need to remember hit'n VTec adds a huge amount air flow
Not to mention the smaller the turbo the higher chance of your motor going pop
