as people have already said this turbo is better for daily driving IMO... none of the whooshing/hissing and carrying on the stocker does (which got really annoying after a while) and I feel I have better control over when I want positive boost pressure and when I just want to putt around... the motor also doesn't feel as 'strangled' anymore... kinda like the first time you get a full exhaust on your car

the traction problems I was having were mostly to do with the freezing and damp roads that night, seems to be gripping much better now... helps if there is some heat in the tires too

Sly33 have you tried pushing anymore than 16.5psi? I thought these turbos would take 18-20psi on an RB25? That said I will be happy with 280rwkw if I can get it:)

im intrigued. dunno much about turbos but this one seems to address what i want. responsive, easy to drive. im not a top speed person more twisties. what do these kits go for and where can i buy one? are these low mounts still and would i need to upgrade my injectors? appologies for the noob questions...ha

yes these are low mounts and i would highly recommend getting the full kit rather than the turbo itself for easier installation..

depending on how much power you want, and i would imagine you would want about 250-270 from this turbo, you would need injectors, fuel pump, z32 afm and some type of aftermarket management and the basics like fmic etc.

thanks...well i got a pfc and z32 thats been sitting here for a while. im on that fence whether i should tune it as is with the stock turbo or fall off the fence and go all out and be done with power mods. Id be quite happy with 250kw and super responsivness.

ive seen pics of the kit and that dump pipe sure looks nice. what do these kits go for?

really need to get the dyno graph posted up... damn lack of scanner... but when you see the graph it really illustrates how fast this f**ker ramps onto full boost.

take a pic of it with your mobile and post it.

btw, nice review. now everyone wants one !!!! :P me included

Ohhh I wouldn't go that far, I just got back from having a drive with my .82a/r GT3076R boosted R33 S2 and I really don't look back - so much fun :P

I ordered one of these after researching for around 2 months for the best turbo upgrade for my 25. Wanting best response, higher hp than my 2530, without breaking the bank and maintaining low mount position.

2835 pro s was the answer!

Currently making 229rwkw with the 2530, looking for 250-270rwkw with the 2835. Will post once I have it installed and tuned. Just gotta wait for the thing to arrive :banana:

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
