Hey ppls have recently purchased a 32GTR with Trust T517z turbos (10cm). Just wondering what a safe boost level would be (and what a max level) with these?? Other mods as follows: Twin 2.5inch exhaust, re-chipped ecu, bosch injectors, trust pods.. internals are stock and am still running stock cooler.. Cheers for any help

about 1.1-1.2bar MAX the 10cm are pretty big and will support over 400rwkw easy, i use the small ones (8cm) on our stocky and run between 1.1bar (318-330rwkw) and 1.3bar for the bigger sweeping tracks (over 350rwkw)

get it checked before winfding up the boost though as the remap may require work. Go speak to the boys at CREATD they have plenty of experience with these turbos/cars etc and can remap you remap if need be.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
