Hey guyz i just wanna know where i can get my stock turbo high flowed and how much would it cost and the power difference ????

thank you!!!!

GCG do it, they charge around 2k to do a hiflow job, or 1k to rebuild a stuffed already hiflowed turbo.

i would personnaly spend the money another turbo, you can buy my rb25 highflow turbo if you want, recently rebuilt... got papers.

i want more power... :)

I'm getting mine highflowed on Monday :domokun:

This is from Sydneykid himself in another thread:

I can't speak about other high flows, but GCG use a brand new dual ball bearing core, new (larger diameter) shaft, new seals, new gaskets, new compressor, new turbine, machine the standard compressor and turbine covers to suite and them micro balance the whole rotating assembly. It's basically a new turbo, everything that is subject to wear is brand new. All the components are covered by Garrett new parts warranty.

It bolts back up exactly as it was when standard, everything fits, no mods, no extra parts, no missing bits, no days waiting for stuff to be made, just bolt it up up and drive away. That is simply not the case with an aftermarket turbo. You will most likely find yourself spending hundreds of dollars more buying and fabricating parts to get the off the shelf turbo to fit.

You can of course buy a turbo with a fitting kit for an RB25 (GTRS for example) but they cost ~$3,200 by the time they get here. That's a valid (total) cost comparison.

have heard of the GCG's making 250rwkw range depends on what you ask them to do. They were also doing specials for SAU members $1800 something like that but that was a while ago.

Yes, another vote for Slide's turbos... PM him and explain what you want, he'll tailor the hi-flow to your specific needs (maximizing power, but reducing the lag). Furthermore, you'll be talking to Slide, not some salesperson who doesn't have all the answers!

All his turbos come with 1yr warranty provided you install and use them correctly. A handmade turbo that's made to spec for your own vehicle + warranty under $1k, where can you go wrong!

You can go wrong without ball bearings.

SAU NSW club members get 10% off at GCG.

GCG highflow = $1950

10% = $195

cost now = $1755

I'm making 255rwkw at 0.9 bar with cams on an auto.

Oh and whoever can get me an HKS 2835ProS for $1750 - I'll take 10.

if you're after a cheap upgrade, go with the t3 off a 300zx (the single turbo version), but these turbos are a little old so make sure its in tip top condition.

hi-flowing one of those would be more beneficial i think.

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
    • House of Fatz dry dock needs a clean sadly one of the long time stables is leaving this weekend   see ya mr purple
    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
