hmmm... close to 4k with the GCG - i disagree.

Having been in Bass_Junky's car... i can say it has a fark load of mumbo @ 4k. As opposed to "coming on" at "4k"

That thing is as responsive as a stock turbo with an extra ~50rwkw

If you ask me, the GCG, cost vs gain... is the best bang for buck (~250rwkw) money can buy.

Everything else is proportionatly worse... meaning, one might not be "too bad" but there is "better" out there.

Its all budget dependant Phil.

very very right ash, i dont have the cash for the gcg or i will go that one, or even get a 3040 externally gated and pump over 250kw. But i think the slide highflow is "alright" considdering its just a small upgrade, and not a permanent mod. Its something i want to have fun with then ill go the big mother setup.

i definetely aggree that bass junkys car mumbo jumbo's all day and night and that the turbo he has will be a pretty aggressive piece of material.

Having said i want to go for the slide highflow, it is better than the one i have now, and i want over 230rwkw and close to 250rwkw for now, as i will be drifting car with high revs it will be pretty good all in all.

is that in reply to my post?

I was talking about the slide turbo. >_<

just in defence of the KKR turbos, i think its amazing that they have actually built a china turbo to last more than 10 mins!

furthermore, my friends RB25 powered laurel made 290hp at the wheels yesterday with the following modifications

fresh RB25 stock

stock injectors

KKR 430

FMIC

Exhaust

Nismo FPR

GTR pump

Apex PFC

Stock manifold

info on the KKRs?

They are cheaper than new turbos should be

my buddy bolted one straight onto his motor with no mods and it pulls hard,

it hasnt died (yet)

it doesnt blow smoke (yet)

yeah the wastegate design is questionable, but his doesnt spike more than 1 or 2 psi on 1 bar. which is acceptable considering he's using a bleeder valve.

do those highflow turbos really make those numbers???

cos they are good numbers! and so cheap!

When you need to purchase the "Otomoto" dump, and its not a direct bolt on (thier own website, and other threads have been over this)

The overall cost to get a KKR onto a car is around $1500-$1700 depending.

IMO that suddenly makes spending the extra few hundred on something better pretty easy to stomach.

Sure the Chinese Turbo's are getting better.

Running them on a lightly tuned car with no demands is fine.

But if your thinking of further mods in the future, realiability might be a problem.

So I agree with Ash, spend the extra bucks for a proven formula .

Cheers :D

    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
