Hey guys, you probably recognise the title type, as i made a similar thread last week when i was going to get my car back, what should i do next.

This time, i am writing to you on advice you can give me on what i should do, as i got my car back friday, saturday night, BLEW MY TURBO.

He is saying, same turbo back on, for $600, but i wanna bigger turbo for not a large amount of money, or if someone is selling there high flowed turbo.

I have been reading up on the T70 turbo off ebay, but if i buy the turbo itself, whatelse would i need?

or is a t3/t4 turbo what you recommend?

the car was doing 276hp - 206 kw with standard turbo, i wanna notch that up a fair bit, would either of these do this or what will?

thanks guys

to get the most out if it you will most likely need: ecu, injectors, fuel pump, clutch, afm, tyres, boost controller, intercooler, exhaust

gcg hiflow $2000

hks 2530 $1300

will work with the usual basic upgrades

r34 stocker $650

r33 stocker $500

well put your opinions with a price, i havnt got a fixed price in my head.

mate your first post didn't ask for prices, just opinions. We gave our opinions, you do the hard work and get prices.

Nengun have the HKS GT2835 pro s at $2300 brand new.

CGC hi flow, what Paully said.

I am guessing you are not running an RB20 if you had 206kw on a stock turbo...

What are we talking?

Also, don't even bother with Ebay... you will most likely throw your money away and have to buy another turbo meaning you could have purchased something that would out perform and out last what you end up with.

work out what you want the car to do for you, what sort of characteristics you want, and start there.

Check the health of your motor for a start, to see what you are working with. Compression and leak down tests. No point throwing lots of power at something thats half dead.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
