you c**nts are f*kn losers. if you got nothing good to say about the dude, lay the f*k of him. fkn little shits hiding behind ur computers. who cares he dusnt know as much as you, it dusnt mean you have to take the piss out of him to make urself feel special

clearly your his mate or his other account.

Andru-- DUDE where you gettin those figures from??

the wrx stock turbo is the TD04. max boost is at 14.5 at 3500 rpms and tapers to around 8 or 9 at redline. IHI VF39 is the stock turbo on usdm STI's. IHI VF34 is the turbo for JDM STI"S

You know there are totally different engines.. Totally different turbos.. DIFFERENT CAR!!! OMG did you know that??

Seriously man..

Why do you hate them now?? coz they run higher boost? Ever thought of why??

If they come stock with those boost levels, wouldn it be safe?? As if a company is gonna boost the car so high that the engine will go POP after a month or so..

Edit: oh and-- the stock turbo is good for about 16.5 lbs, anything above that is probably above the efficiency range of the td04L

So you cant say they run 17psi stock!! coz thats peak boost levels..

gd entertainment you provide..

Andru, just to answer your question, differently designed/manufactured turbos can generate/sustain different levels of boost.. currently skylines use turbos that spool up quicker but run less boost, we also have 2.5/2.6lts vs. 2.0 or in the new wrx 2.5 (i'd be interested to see what boost they run)..

The evo's also run high boost levels e.g. 14/15PSI.. it's the offset you get for having a 2Ltr engine and trying to create high power..

As for the comments.. well.. it's an acceptable question, maybe just the way you state it.. You could have simply asked "Why does a WRX/EVO run high levels of boost vs. Skylines".. Also - you just need to look at the RB20DET, they run quite high levels stock (e.g. 11/12psi - or whatever it is) - it offsets the 2Ltr engine..

Anyways.. good luck, appears to be a hunting ground here.. :)

And ANDrue.. please read what i wrote above..

Since im a nice guy, i asked a friend of mine for some sites for you..

so heres one for you:

You will learn everything about a wrx!! then go compare it to your wonderful car.

gdluck mate..

That was so terrible I think you just gave me cancer.

WRX was designed for rally conditions, short events (only used for a few kilometres) while the RB series engine was designed for the track for events like the JGTC where it runs for heaps more distance and higher power.

Just like trucks are designed with massive torque to move other trucks around, and RX7's are designed to move 1 person driving (hehe they have zero torque down low hehehe).

andru, i have a tip for you. if you get a piece of alluminium around 60mm in diameter, then drill out a 20mm hole in the middle. now place it in your intake track (just after the nipple that your boost guage get's it's reading from). now disconnect your wastegate actuator. you should be now able to reach 40psi (briefly) on your stock turbo.

OMFG your stock turbo can make 40psi it must be heaps better.

read these next lines over and over:

boost pressure is not power

a car running 14psi does not make double the power of a car running 7psi

not every single car is equipped with the same turbo

boost pressure is partly a measure of restriction. it's meaningless without some kind of specs on the turbo, and some numbers on how much air the compressor is pumping at a certain pressure.

you want to really find out what's going on power wise tell me how much air (in CFM) a standard subaru wrx turbo is pumping at 14psi, then tell me how much air a standard nissan 34 GTT turbo is pumping at say 7psi.

think twice before hitting the new thread button please.

i got my facts from wrx.com.au its all there

alright guys lets just put all the crap aside for one second

i dont HATE rexs...i jsut reguarded as a real good good car...like i was amazed that they go so fast and stick so well to the ground......AWD and all u no...but after finding out it runs 17 boost i kinda just lost a lil for em.

will it make you respect them more if they went for larger turbos running low boost at the same power?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
