Hi huys for now we are going with a T88 kit which we purchased from doughboy, off this forum.

Again anyone how has delt with chris will know that he has to be one of the best peopl eto deal with when buying car parts.

Thanks again Chris.

anyway

we purchased a T88-33D kit with a Sard wastegate.

We are just getting the kit cleaned and, sandblasted and then ceramic coated.

I'll get some photos up once the kit is put back together all nice and clean.

I thinkthis will be a good test to see what the results are like compared to GT-SS turbos to the T88.

Cheers

good luck with it, just wondering y the extreme change from the most streetable turbos on the market to the most laggiest of the lot? more power i guess? :) surely u aint gonna be using the t88 to its potential so y not something b/b and abit smaller, or isnt lag an issue?

cheers

I'd say with their motor combination they'll probably hit the limit of the turbo, and it will be a good showcase for Hypertune's range of products. I suppose their goals might be a bit more realistic than, say hypothetically, stuffing a big dollar race quality motor into an 1800kg grocery getter? Don't Coles carparks have a 15km/h speed limit? :)

maybe cause i want something different, not just another gtr. i want to park it up with people not knowing its fast, which cant be said for any model skylines and people automatically think they are fast, hence more getting stolen, or damaged from jeleous morons.

the motor wont always be in the stagea anyway, as it come out of a vl calais b4, and 2wd is just a waste of time, and r32 gtrs r too old with things looking dated (interior wise) and i dont like 33's at all, and 34's r mad but way too pricey.

i wasnt personally having a dig at 600hp's setup, i only asked the question as to why he went sooo big that was all? its pretty lame that u get shit from just asking a simple question, isnt that the point of the forums?

are we all supposed to just say thats awesome, and never find out y he is actually choosing it?

:)

I agree with you cruiseliner... but you take the good with the bad. Although quite opinionated, this forum would have the most open minded (and knowledgable) people that i've seen on any forum... and thats why i think its one of the best. Bring up something like what BOV sounds the best and its a different story tho :)

Sorry for the slow reply.

the reason we went with the T88 is because we were maxing out the GT-SS we believe, and our engine was built for 800hp.

with the T88 onboard we will rev the engine up to 9500rpm were as now its only 8500rpm.

The 33d is the smallest so, with our engine combo it might not be as laggy as some think.

All we know is no one who has a engine the as the same spec as ours has gone from GT-SS's to a 33D turbo kit, I'm looking foward to seeing what the results are.

Yes there will be more lag but a GTR engine was designed to rev. With our SS turbos max power was at 7500rpm.

I'm sure the max power of the 33D is about 850-880ps.

We will be running up the car with the JUN plenum then with the Hypertune plenum and 97mm TB.

we may also be going to a 150mm intercooler as well.

Just wondering what other cars on this forum have a setup somewhere near the same as ours which has a T88 on it or something else big.

Cheers

I went for a spin with Dexter in his Maroon R32 with a 2.7ltr kit and t88-33d.....response was great...top end was awesome. Ben id say you have made a wise choice with the 33d mate...can't wait to view the results.

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
