people say its crap because they read off other forums.. people had had bad expereince in some.. other people are pretty happy rather impressed with the " CHEAP " turbo they have.

but they are not as bad as people think... i was hesitant then but i guess theres only one way to prove it.

they dont boost up till 4000rpm... they are the same with any other turbo with .84 rear housing.. even a GT35/40 on a 2.5L engine will boost till the 4000rpm mark due to the .82 rear exhause.. HKS 25/30 and the like are of course will have more response due to its size.

T70 are not as bad as people think they are just because they read it in other forums.

and for the record.. im making 324HP at 10psi.. 425hp at 17psi and 510HP at 24Psi..of course with all the supporting mods.

I guess thats working for me then.

Same model "T70" as this guy is running?

I believe there are a few variants

wow thats awesome figures for that t70...the one i got from 2fast2furious didnt boost till about 4500rpm, and on 18psi i only made 345rwhp @ Mercury Motorsports Dyno. I like your figures better, would have given me more street cred. Stupid me used the oil line they supplied, supposed to be a teflon inner s/s line and well the heat cooked it and the inside carbonised and caused a blockage and well we all know how well turbos spool with no oil in them dont we :mad:

Happy to say i replaced it with a gt3076r or something like that with a .63 rear....way better.

LOL make up your mind you get what you pay for!

If you want a decent reliable turbo then pay for it, like everyone else has :laugh: dont mean to be harsh but you have to do other mods to fit these turbos dump/front pipe external wastegate why not make sure you do it right from the start and get a decent turbo plus supporting mods :mad: that way the turbo will spool quickly and you will have good top end power too, but since you already have this turbo keep us updated on how it goes, remember its not how much power you make its when you make it that is important too!

mine were purchased off Ebay and is made by MasterPower Super T70.

it does not go to full boost at 4000rpm,. rather they start spooling boost at that stage.

Master Power are based in the US... they actually make turbo internals for garrett... same thing with HKS,. they get their turbo off garrett and brand them HKS and sell them at higher price.. garrett of course would like to make money and get them off Masterpower or other small brand busineses.

but its true.. u get what u payed for.. it depends on your set up too.. so it is important to keep that in mind.

bigger injectors and bigger fuel pump and cams would make it runs better.

oh and yeah...

I Drive a Supra hence the difference.

Your best off getting a turbo that bolts onto the standard manifold the turbo may be cheap but the supporting mods wont me new manifold, water and oil lines etc. and not a good match for the RB25 way to laaaggggyyy for a street car. Get a better matched turbo GCG highflow or HKS GTRS. good for around 270rwkw with good response

like i said... people would bad them down coz they read it somewhere.. till u use and based in on your experience then it all changes.

and again,.. spooling at 4000rpm is what u get for having a big turbo... get yourself a bolt on HKS one and they will spool alot quicker... but then again.. you will be limited to HP and they run out of puffs after 65000rpm.. while top end boost till red line.

i must admit im impressed with a mate who has 300hp on 2500rpm.. i cant beat the facker on the street.. but the hi way is my friend.. just the bad side on his is that he burns tyres all the time due to bad wheelspin.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
