good for high 300-low 400awkw. i have used a few sets (they usually use TWO wastegates) make sure the gate is big enough to flow both turbos... maybe one of the reasons its cheap is his custom job was not so successful..

exactly what im thinking

look where the gate is, nowhere NEAR the first turbo.

I wouldnt be surprised if it had major boost spike/control issues having the gate that far away AND after a merge from another manifold.

id be very surprised if it worked at all

Gotta love ebay specials

Yeah can definitely see what you are thinking there, though I'm not 100% sure that it wouldn't work still. All the wastegate has to do is drop the manifold pressure, and its going to do that regardless of where it is so long as the angle for the feed pipe to the wastegate is angled sensibly and the wastegate is big enough. To me, those basically seem ok. Thats my first impression though my confidence is similar to my confidence that I won't get salmonella next time I buy KFC.

Ye it will do it regardless in a certain scenario

The exhaust goes the path of least resistance, now looking @ that, its fairly nasty. Not good at all.

There is room for turbulence from the runner intersect, its a fair way to travel compared to the housing etc etc.

I dunno, it really is hard to say. It might be totally fine :huh:

I just wouldnt be surprised if you measured the turbo outlets onces its all setup and one doesnt follow the same boost path as the other etc.

I bet the TD05's are shagged too :)

lol.. ok mr negative.. ebay specials?? try yahoo japan, and the japanese are very honest ppl, if they where stuffed im sure he would have stated that in his add. Im not sayin that it will work 100% affectivly with the waste gate where it is, but as some one elce said for that price your cant go wrong.. its not that cheap really, there are lots of rb26 turbo kits that go for around the same price all the time.. just have to look

oh yeah i should have mentioned they are pretty much ext gate versions of the T517Z range of turbos. The twin Td05 kit was discontinued when the bolt on T517z 8cm and 10cm versions were released.

take it from someone who has been buying parts of yahoo japan for over 6 years and travels to japan twice a year that japanese people selling stuff on yahoo can be just as dodgey as aussie people selling stuff on ebay. yes there are some genuine bargains out there, but do not take every auction description as gospel, or assume that some ingrained sense of honour will compell a japanese seller to declare a fault with something he's selling. and shock horror, there are actually full on scammers on yahoo too that will take your money and send you nothing.

note: I'm not saying these are anything but wonderful. they could be awesome. you'll find out when you get 'em. as I said, there are genuine bargains, but there are plenty of scams too. so beware. :D

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
