I had the same problem with my car, exhaust tone was nice but after driving it for 20min u get over it pretty quickly (its a sign of old age, I like to call it maturity lol)

Besides that, when the exhaust db drops, u get to hear more engine noise which is a major plus.

Wont be making the drag day, still need to make changes for it to be road worthy. As the car has been pulled apart and off the road for so long, Adam suggested that the car as a whole needs a few K's put on it just to see if there is anything that needs attention.

So far 200rwkw@10psi 5000rpm. Makes more power and torque everywhere. Feels strong.

Ordered my new plates too :)

RB25/30

Ported head

HKS 256/264 cams

Tomei springs

Nitto headgasket

Nitto/JE pistons

Nitto I beam rods

Block mods

etc etc etc

GT35R.82

6boost manifold

4inch dump

4inch exhaust

I hope the rear housing will be big enough.

Cheers, and I am sure it will be fine... for some reason I thought you were going GTX

Ffs dont waste your time and money with the .82 housing Dave. It will only end in tears.

At the very least use a 1.06 housing and even then dont tune it without egt sensors.

You setup is almost a mirror of mine and the 33 racer car. I wont tell you how any 35r's came to grief between the 2 engines before we woke up. Using the .82 is like f**king for virginity, You wont get the desired result.

What Noel said mate! :)

But if you do manage over 400 with the .82 ill be impressed, especially if the backpressure isnt stupid and you can keep egts below 800c and stop the turbo from shitting itself the first time you go do a track day.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
