I can't speak more highly about the turbo Aaron had made me... admittedly my one is a little bit "different" to his other items but it is based on the same theories.

I'm making 200rwkw with 10-11psi (boost drops off due to other issue) which is at the absolute limit of my ECU after tuning at Hitman.

Lag is minimal, the turbo sound is orgasmic and yes I'm very very happy with what I got. Aaron is a top guy, he'll answer any of your questions and will ensure you "learn" something from it rather than just buy something from him.

In a few weeks I will be able to boost the thing into it's efficiency range of 18-22psi, should be very interesting to see what happens then!

My 2c

Dyno Graph is on my website... follow the link below.

Links; he doesn't want to use your turbo :O It's not good enough, he replaces it with a "new" item!

PM me for more details if you want, Northern Beaches Performance has a few deals going on with Sliding Performance at the moment.

Journal Bearings

Steel Wheels

You KEEP your turbo!

Sorry, need to ask Aaron about the flow rates... but I'd assume it's large considering I could boost to 13psi on my standard turbo but only manage 11psi on this one before the standard ECU starts to play dumb.

Hmm.. so flog off mine for 300.. pay for some of the intercooler.. hmm.. not bad.. not bad.. get an aftermarket ECU.. good $2500 upgrade + labour + tuning..

I'm making 200rwkw with 10-11psi (boost drops off due to other issue) which is at the absolute limit of my ECU after tuning at Hitman.

sorry to go a little OT, but did hitman tune your stock ECU? how did you find it? and why is it now at the limit of the ecu?

i didnt even know he did re-maps, i may take in the GTST.

BB - Hitman didn't tune my stock ECU - he tuned the SAFC2 which is in my car. The stock ECU has a lot of operating parameters as we all know - we couldn't wind up boost past 11psi as the car would cut out at 4.5K rpm.

Anyways, new ECU going in soon along with 2 more tunes so I'm going to be a happy boy!

Everyone else:

NBP is now the reccomended Sydney installer for all of Sliding Performance's Sydney turbo sales. Currently the arrangement is: buy a turbo from Aaron, add another $330 to get it installed (fluids included)

Journal Bearings are bush bearings.... not ball bearing.

Proven results are on my website - look in the Tuning Results section! Sorry for the lack of updates on that thing, haven't had time.

Modifications list has grown heaps since then too :) Even without the stuff that WILL be going in and a re-tune I'm on about 220rwkw at the moment but it's running REALLY REALLY RICH!

    • The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.
    • But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
    • I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
    • I didn't actually try it at the time but a Launch X431 with the appropriate software licenses/upsell will have the ABS bleed function. The Consult II you can still find some old sets of equipment but they're really, really expensive:   
    • Well I'll start by saying I'm not an engineer. I am going to go with the KiwiCNC ones.  They are made of 7050 alloy have good fillets and radius.  The material alone is in the order of double the strength and fatigue resistance - Those bolts, once torqued correctly place most of the load at the flat face of the mating surface - the 'stretch' you're talking about through torqueing them up would be far more than the extra stretch 'load' placed on them from a steering input or bump. (in my opinion) so I doubt they would flinch.    - but again "not an engineer".      oh and I don't think stitch welding 7050 is a good idea, likely just weaken the material (from what I read)
