Well if you go highmount you will need a new manifold(a good one is 1k+) a wastegate($500) new lines and a new dump pipe.

You will need a new dump pipe anyway internal or external. Going external will cost you more but will be a benefit if you plan to go bigger in the future.

Ill get some prices on an internal housing for you.

do wet the wrap as you wrap it.

do not smear silicone on it.

do paint over it with high temp paint if you wish but since you have the black stuff don't bother.

do wear gloves and mask/googles

do not scratch your balls, or pick your bum or rub your eyes or you will end up in a nasty, itchy hell.

Make sure you wash your hands before you eat very thoroughly! Been there, done that, itchy as hell mouth for days... hard to scratch in there as well :blink:

Same as yours mate :P But im already thinking about going to a GT3082. See how we go with this one first.

I vote, very very very hard - that you DO NOT go GT3082R. Max out the GT3076R first, you may be surprised at what they can do. If its not enough, don't mess about with the GT3082R - go to the GT3582R :banana:

I wet wraped mine gets a bit messy with water all over your hand while you try to wrap the man.

Can say ive been there with fiberglass was ripping the interior out of my GT pulling the roof lining off with no carpet in it and the bits of fiberglass on the floor pan and an itcy arse for days lol

Would like to see if he did scratch his nut would be a funny site to see lol

Yes its on the stand in my garage :) The blue is really going to look good against the white engine bay.

I have installed the ARP manifold bolts and trial fitted the manifold and turbo. Now im off to bed, i have alot of running around to do tomorow :D

Very few of them are, including the ones with "made in the usa" on the box. :D

My Pauter rods were made in the California factory ~5 years ago. Price was not much more than Asian manufactured options.

To my knowledge they still make every order to customers' specs at the same factory including titanium alloy if you can afford them (~US$1,400 per rod last time I checked).

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
