HI guys, I'm hoping someone can help me.

Here is my story

I got an upgrade to my r33 SII the turbo upgrade was done by GCG. I got the 450HP hi flow Ball bearing turbo. Now my problem is that it’s over boosting. Research has led me to believe it’s because of the exhaust outlet is too small. I have been searching for a VG30 single turbo housing but to no avail, everyone wants to sell me the whole thing.

So if anyone can assist with a VG30 rear housing it would be much appreciated.

So far, I have spent

$200 for an old r33 SI turbo

$1750 to hiflow

$270 Sard Fuel Reg

$220 Fuel pump

$750 Power FC

$2500 Unique to have it all installed

It’s been costly so far and im looking at another $1000

Not sure where to go from here

get the internal waste gate welded shut and run an external wastegate. just a little 38mm one should do the trick

that was an option but I was speaking to scott from insight he informed me that he did that with a 200 and didnt fix the problem so i dont know if mines going be the same.

thanks for the reply

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
