Highflow Turbo

[tmc_2]

Hi guys,

I liv ein brisbane and i am about to purchase a turbo for my r33.

I have been trying to decide what set up to go for for 2 months now.

I am thinking a slide highflow either a max rb25 over size or a vg30 max over size.

i like it becasue of minimal fuss bolting it up.

My Tuner recommends a gt30r and installing a thicker headgasket.

Now this is a lot more costly and if i can make a realible 250rwk with a slide highflow with supporting mods

then id rather do that.

I wanted to ask if any one has a slide highflow in brisbane that i might be able to see in person or meet at a cruise some time? i think seeing one perform in the flesh will help me decide what to buy more comfortably.

So far i have

rebuild forged pistons

PFC

walbro pump

metal intake pipe

FMIC

Catch can

I will be installing injectors and Greddy fwd facing intake and sllpit dump at time of turbo install.

And below a pic of the car.

Thanks in advance guys

Much the same situ as me bloke. I drove a lot of peeps nuts with questions before i made my choice.

My mod list will be much the same as yours sans forged bottom end and my goal is 250 plus rwkw with as little lag as possible and fat fat torque. After speaking to members tuners and arron I ordered his stage 3 jobbie. All evidence points to this unit doing excactly what i want. GL with your decision.

Get the slide highflow, you should piss in 250rwkw with the supports. Get the VG30 max oversize as well

Something in the region of 550cc injectors and upgrade the AFM

For us not in the know, what is a stage 3?

[tmc_2]

Fine Line,

Thanks,

Make sure u kepe us posted how u go after install.

I want to see a stage3 in the flesh pumping over 235rwk reliably then i will be sold. i can live with 235kw from a stage3.

If any one has a slide highflow id really appreciate it if i can meet you out on a cruise some time to see it first hand, seat of the pants whould be great .

[tmc_2]

By stage 3 we mean the maxrb25 highflow.

Im leaning towards the vg30 max oversize!

Im prob just over analysing??? i really want to have good response and performance wiht a 250rwkw power figure.

Injectors & AFM on the cards for sure!

Dan what tubz u running?

Thanks Noel, mmm when he first started I was considering one and at that time he said he could do a 270 degrees bearing for an extra 300? but I never followed up on it.

This mod deal is like getting presents. you dont know whats in there till you open it up.

To a man everyone says that with the mods we are using (or going to use) 250 rwkw is a shoe in. However, There are cars out there carrying these mods or more which arent making those figures.

Still the great unknown (for me at least) is the puda. i simply cannot get a definitive answer. I would like to know excactly what are the desirable features in an engine management system and which if any of the known brands have all the fruit.

[tmc_2]

Id be keen to buy a better bearing i guess for abit extra like that.

I guess i will decide in the next 2 weeks.

Id be realyl keen to see one in action if any one in brisbane has one!

Doesnt john have one aka toy-33

I pedalled Lazy bastards 33 last week with this same type of mod setup tmc. It hauled arse through the midrange. very useable power. Very impressive.

John uses the GCG bb one, cost like another 600

[tmc_2]

Id be keen to hear from lazy bastard33 and toy-33, be good to see there set ups in action.

Migh shoo them a pm if they dont join in on the thread

im really for hte slide due to cost, but for an extra 600 if the GCG one shows its worth i might consider it.

Useable power is what i am aiming for mainly.

i have a max size slide highflow - 231kw at the wheels on mercurys dyno

couldn't get the vg30 as he was out of stock of exhaust housings, has he found more supplies now?

so like 180 rwkw everywhere else?? :D

What boost are you running for that figure Izaac? I am assuming there is a bit more left in it?

lol true i wonder why old men in camrys still outpowah me

15psi, yes plenty more but requires upgrade to fuel system as the injectors are near maximum duty cycle. I run stock injectors, stock regulator with a walbro.

its really really really hard to go past a powerfc

theres a reason we all use them hey?

i saw your comment in the other thread, tuners for powerfcs will be around as long as you own your car
