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.

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.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
