I have a series2 r33 skyline, current mods are
- 3 Inch stainless Steel exhaust
- POD
- Power FC and Controller
- Apexi Boost controller
- Front Mount
- New Big Radiator
- Fuel Pump
Its tuned at around 190 – 200kws.
Im looking at putting a new turbo on it. Ive been told the standard internals would hold up to around 300kws, is this true?
If it is what im thinking is getting a turbo that is capable of making the 300kws then getting you guys to down tune it to a very safe 275-280kws. Would that work?
If yes what turbo would you recommend to do this job? And it’s a daily driven car so id prefer less lag the better.
I also will be getting some deatchworks 555cc injectors when I get the turbo. Is there any other supporting mods you would recommend also?
And if i was to bring it to you guys what kinda cash, roughly, would it cost?
This is what they came back with....
The RB25 in std form will kope with 300kw at the wheels provided it has been kept well. The injectors your are getting will be large enough and we can supply you with a Garrett GT30/40r turbo machined into a std rb25 style exhaust housing, this gives good responce and the potential of running 300 at the wheels, The turb is $ 2100.00, you will need a spacer and longer studs to fit it to your exhaust manifold $ 90.00, a braided oil feed line and coolant fittings hose etc and drain fittings etc $290.00, we will need to modify your intercooler pipe to turb and also make a 4" air flow meter to turb pipe $ 360.00
Labour to R&R turb and manifold refit with new turb $ 450.00, Extra will be charged for broken manifold studs etc and exhaust manifold gasket $145.00 ( genuine)
this set up will give you 270-280 at the wheels with std cams at 18 psi boost, aftermarket cams will be required to push further with out boosting up more
What does this sound like to you guys?
This company is well respected and will do a good job. Great people there so in no way having a go just dont know as much as other people will on here about it and not sure if that sounds alright.
What other turbos would you recommend and cost?
And remember that is with all labour etc
Just wanted to know some other opinions....
