Can't wait to turbo my car now.

Look at those figures, 200 kw ~ say what!
Bet you can't wait to blow past those SS Bombadore's

[BLKCRX]

Turbo all the way...
Welcome to the boost world

James, Q-Ball said he's running a T3/4 hybrid, would you say that's probably the most popular set up for street applications? and if so, what brands make this size... I'm not too cluey, sorry to hijack.

What is a t3/t4 hybird turbo ! lol
Its funny how you see people mention it all the time

What makes a turbo is specific elements.

You need to know the exhaust flange, ( ok in this case t3 is the exhaust flange) t25 t28 t3 t4
You need to the know exhaust housing size (ar) something like .4, .5, .63, .7, .82, .9, 1.1 etc
You need to know the intake housing size, (ar) something like .60, .70, .80
You need to know what core, what bearings
You need to know what exhaust wheel
You need to know what intake wheel


You could have 100’s of the above combinations and it would still be called a t3/t4 turbo
So unless things are listed specifically you can’t make a generalized comment. All my turbo’s that I sorce are custom made to specification mixing and matching the correct wheels with the correct core with the correct housing for the application at hand. Choosing the correct turbo is the most important part of any turbo setup.

As for Q balls turbo my knowledge and experience from the attached dyno graph is something is wrong, the turbo or something else has already reached its maximum limit. Could be the turbo, could the the manifold, could be the compression, could be the cooler, could be almost any part of the setup, but instinct says the turbo.

Making an extra 14.8kw from running an extra 4 psi of boost shows around 12psi is the optimal point of this current turbo setup. I most certainly wouldn’t run a extra 4psi for a extra 14kw, why stress the engine out so much for so little gains

Ok then, I know this is not Q&A james, but a pat Q-Ball on the back thread,

But lets say you wished to build a DC2 VTi-R that would be a daily driver, but would easily school XR8's and SS commodores.

What kind of package would you look at,

assuming that we're using the HONDATA ecu.

What kind of manifold, wastegate (tial or hks obv, cuz apparently they are by far the most reliable and best performance), intercooler, turbo etc, would you buy,

Usually, you say custom and so forth, but when reading the Q&A sections and bang for buck threads where Adrian from TODA, they say, buy an entry level turbo kit, like GReddy -

What would be what you would use?

And lets not get too crazy with the budget, just something that's reliable, can put 50,000 dollar cars to shame for less than half the price.

[yourfather]

also, 2.5" down pipes, to keep air conditioning, or 3" all the way through?

[Q_ball]

mines actually a 3" dump pipe, air con....GONE SON!!

[yourfather]

yeah, only girly men need air conditioning. my girlfriend started bugging me to put it on today when it was only 23 degrees !!! crazy

[BLKCRX]

Ill reply via PM to keep this tread clean but in short all your answers depend on how much money you want to spend....Come see me at the workshop, or just call me on 0417 875 785 if you require technical information or help

PS i wrote that bang for ya buck thread also eheh have a read of it a lot of your answers are on there and read the links to my hondatech fourms

okie, awaiting PM eagerly ) ) ) )
