Ok, I couldn't find anything of value so I thought I would ask how the T70 turbo's go with an RB25 motor?

.82 exhaust size with a 60.5mm front wheel is the one I am looking at.

I am ok with a little lag, ie it starts boosting at 3500rpm.

but do they come on at 5k or something ridiculous?

Not after opinions on the quality of a T70, just what they are like on a 25 please.

My mate one tuned one for a customer rb25det and it made 420rwhp on 19 psi. it made full boost at around 4000rpm

that's the answer I was hoping for.

have got 550cc injectors, haltech ecu etc etc, so I figure if I see full boost by 4k and I am making high 200rwkw's, they must be a good "cheaper" turbo then.

cheers

420rwhp is about 300rwkw :sick:

assumptions?

Why do you think I am asking the question here?

Got an answer that relates to an answer I got elsewhere that they are pretty good on a 25, but laggy on a 20.

The 20 I speak of made 24orwkw on 19psi.

I plan on running 16psi in the 25 and anything between 250-300 rwkw will be a big jump from 204rwkw that I had last tune.

Saying that, it's more a question about lag.

yep thats right boosting at 4800, i had power fc, the usuals no internals, too get it to boost early like 4k you would need a good set of cams. and im now running a gt3040. your better to save your money and do the job right first than waste $500 or however much they are, i learnt the hard way money down the drain and i had a lag monster.

gt3040 or a gt3540, is a million times better. you can choose your ex. housing size for your response you want. there excellent quality, ball bearing, water cooled. i really wish i went that to start with instead of trying to get cheap power that just cost more in the end.

I had one also on my rb25 and didnt see full boost till about 4800-5000rpm...was a mass lag monster. On 17psi i made 350rwhp with supporting mods and all, no cams though.

then it ceased up cause the shitty oil line i used got blocked up and starved the turbo of oil.

Now have a gt3040 with .63 rear, much much better :)

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
