Ugh... t04e... the good ole poor mans turbo :bomb_ie:

Either way, totally dependant on the spec of the T04e you have.

There are probably 100 different combinations.

Be prepared for poor power delivery, and poor response... i know, i had one (.82 rear, 500hp front end)

^ as above.

You've mentioned a 450/500hp turbo and a 700hp turbo... i think you need to research what your doing

i understand thy are very different..... but im struggling to decide...whether i want my car to be just big horse power... or i still do what ive been doing for drift...

ill start at injectors.. atm its pushing 212 rwkw... with the injectors they should unlock a little more power as the stockies are only at about 75%.... r31 nismoid... whats your suggestion on this whole thing... cause i really dont know what is better and what not

Well its generally determined by cost.

GT35 = rebuild plus a lot of other stuff, 15k i reckon is a good number to match with 350rwkw.

GT-RS, bolt on, still within the motor limit and good response... less than half the GT35 route too

It wont look as flash though as its not a big donky cover like the t04e probably has on it (.7AR front), but will do the job a fair portion better.

t04z is bigger again & a great turbo. I got a gt3540 and once it was too expensive to go back i reslied i really should of got a t04z. My turbo is the biggest draw back in my whole system. Only thing is tho on a built 2.5l engine it will be laggy. I guess it just depends on what your application is.

what if i decided to get the exaust houseing change to like a .61.... wouldnt that reduce lag... cause i wanna drift on track....and with a laggy turbo its not much fun.. godl..turboz are so ridiculiously over priced!! :D

Turbo's when properly taken care of, should end up being cheaper then your engine oil.

their service life exceeds that of most engine rebuilds in the diesel world i hear.

Have you checked the cost of a modern, internally lubricated supercharger?... :D

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
