hey guys , just wondering those of you who have a 34 what type of turbos are you running? as im looking to up the cheaply high flowed turbo i have (stock high flowed) as i dont want to go down the path of a aftermarket computer yet .. any suggestions would be good !

Reason for keeping it stock looking - i want to re-use the turbo heatsheild as cops these days are a pain !! rather not want to get defected

Cheers

I was looking at upgrading my turbo to a Apexi AX53B70 as it's low mount, internal gated and apexi said "The AX53B70 turbine power output is around 600HP depending upon application" it uses the ihi catridge so can still be rebuilt with apexi dead... another choice would be a GT-RS which would keep everything looking stock as it comes in a bolt on kit, depends how much you wana spend? wont get full potential out of teh turbo with a stock ecu unless remaped.

Btw my turbo is stock

There is 3 AX53B70s the p21 is used as a twin set up on GTRs, the P25 is rated to 380hp, I have this it is really responsive and made 245rwkw at 14psi on my car, so there is a bit more in it yet and the P28 which is a big high mount job thats the 600hp one

The P25 would be a good choice Vish I love mine but you may have trouble getting one. Apexi turbos are rare these days! I know I have been unable to get my hands on a RX6 kit, websites say they have them but when you try to order they say they are out of stock

ah cool gives me some ideas on them rite now im running a gcg stage 1 high flow which was at that time cheaper since i was on a budget .. spool up is great power wise it lacks mid to high end... hence upgrading..

Its hard to buy them brand new as they are a discontinued item, i have seen a couple go through yahoo auctions for around $800 second hand

Thanks guy i tried searcing a few places without much luck not many people seem to know about them .. any one knows anything about a stage 2 highflow or slide overmax ?

Seriously mate their isn't much point in upgrading the turbo (which is already decent) until you get the best out of it by way of after market management. That said the slide max high flow is a good thing, I have seen one make 200rwkw at 5psi

    • It might be worth having a good look at the chassis behind the bumper then; most people prefer the series 2 look so it might have been changed to cheaper parts as part of an earlier repair
    • The car itself a series 2. I was just curious about the headlights and just wanted to confirm that they were series 1. Good to know the rest of the front end is series 1. It’ll be easier for me to find parts on the aftermarket side of things lol
    • If you've wired up the coils & injectors properly, & have the neo CAS loom for the trigger, it should all work. The VCT works the same way so just different plugs between s1 & neo. Assuming DBW if no IAC. Don't bother with the stock boost solenoid with g4x.
    • THERE IS NO IAT SENSOR ON ANY SINGLE TURBO RB. And the one on an RB26 is not for "engine control" - it's really too big and too slow and is only used for over-temp alarming (as far as I can tell). Anyway, you don't have one. You want/need one for the Link, then you need to buy one, find a spot for it, and wire it in. You do know that the stock boost solenoid is not capable of "control", right? It is merely on or off, for the low boost (5 psi) and high boost (7psi), which the ECU enforces mostly based on gear. The stock solenoid is not for PWM control and is not plumbed up in a way to provide it. If you want to control boost properly, then you need a proper MAC valve. And yes, you can wire either of them direct to the ECU. Well, I assume you can - I don't know what the boost solenoid pins on the plug and play Link are capable of. They really should be as capable as any normal Link - but seeing as it is plg and play, it might be limited to stock functionality. Read the doco.   You really do just want to plug stuff together without understanding how it works, right? I can't help you there. I don't know the plug types or pinning on half the stuff you're asking about. If I had to do it I would sit down with the wiring diagrams, the car/looms and a multimeter and work out what is what.
