I'm just wanting to get some of peoples thoughts on here. What would people rather be driving a r32 93 m-spec or a 92 m spec? What if the 92 was in better condition than the 93? Would you just buy the 93 because you can say its the latest r32 you can buy? The good thing is the lights are updated from the 89-91 so there like a newer version of the 32. Or would you not care about the year of the car?

this has been done to death. have a search. also, this is hardly forced induction.

I say condition matters. Age also matters. if a car is 89 v 93, at 4 years old, unless if it's parked in a bubble, it will be exposed to the environment for longer so it'll ahve more rust etc.

they didnt have door bar thingies... u know.. those things.

Reinforcements which come in handy during a possible side impact...

I guess if you look at what what car I have there are no points for which one I would take..

But in all seriousness, I prefer the second generation of the R32.. if it is a 92 or 93 is of no real difference, except u can say it was the last year that car was made if u had the 93...

type m*

:happy:

You're wasting your time bacons, multiple people have tried telling Nth time and time again that there's no such thing, and that it's actually "type m", but if the information hasn't been absorbed yet..

.....I give you points for trying though :laugh:

      It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.

      By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.

      There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
