Kye not too sure on the price, but from what i've heard you can buy a stock one and send it over to Slide and he will replace it with a Hi Flowed one for some extra cash! I think Tangles has put one in his car and i know for a fact Sambo has just got Boostworx to put one in his and that may have come from Adelaide Turbo Services!! Mine was on the car when i bought it and that was done at least 4-5 years ago by ATS also! Great turbo for a not quite so crazy upgrade!!

I went the GCG aproach and am very happy with the results, I have since heard people are happy with the SLIDE highflow (SAU Trader I think). There are local (Adelaide) places who will also highflow turbos but my research indicated they were more reliable at 14PSI, but didnt make any more power than a stock turbo (my opinions and findings after talking to dyno shops).

Jeff is a wizz! Theres no one else i'd go to thats for sure.

The turbo ive got is pretty good cond too.. lot cheaper then a high flow if 200 rwkw is all you want. If youy want 250 rwkw then the highflow is a better option

With an RB25 turbo you dont need to change AFM/injectors at all... just a fuel pump and a remap

tell the mrs...no turbo = no more sex for her

no, i WANT the turbo :P haha

picky is all well and good, but the fact is on my rb20det wiht RB25 highflow i ran 220 rwkw with stock injectors and AFM for a long time with NO drama's... ran perfect AFR's through the entrie rev range... day in day out :D

food for thought

sounds interesting, what psi was that on and mods used simon?

im guessing its all in the tune as my last sil made the most power after the tune. jumped nearly 40 odd kw :)

      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
