After some major research I've settled for these turbos, was just wondering who in SA is running these turbos? Would love to hear your opinion on em :)

Also, open question: I'm getting them fitted at the same time as my Trust MX Extension front pipes...would this combo run fine with the stock ECU? I'm still hunting for a Power FC atm.

Im running N1s in my GTR with turbo back trust exhaust air filters Power Fc stock injectors stock fuel pump and stock afm's and im makinmg 296.5rwkw... comes on boost pretty early and they pull hard i like em

Need some clarification about the tune. I was under the impression that the stock ECU doesn't have any facilities for tuning, only an aftermarket ECU does...thats right, right?

you will be fine i had the n1's on with a stock ecu and had no drama's

Hi, I run N1s on my car... very nice! I have 326kw at wheels with smooth delivery.

Ryan is running 2860 turbos I reckon... similar but they hit a little harder. Shane (PURESX) is running 'em (2860s) too and they are nice!

If you are gonna go to the expense of changing turbos why not change computer?? A power FC will make a good difference to power and lots of people can tune 'em.

Ahhhh I see you are still lookin' for one!!

Yeah, seen a few FC's in the FS section, and Slidewize are doing new ones for $980 delivered...so I'm just shopping right now, still have a week or 2 before the car goes into Boostworx and I'm just being stingy atm :)

It's on the cards though, all about the timing of the purchase now...darn old cars! Still have a squeak on the front right suspension area thats driving me nuts!

how much smaller and less kws would a set of r34 N1s make to the GT-SSs?

on a GTR R33

This chart my answer some questions. BTW there are 3 slightly different versions of R34 N1 turbos.

I'm currently running the 2860 -5's which are a smidge bigger than the N1's and still relatively responsive with good power.

Is anyone running a pair of 2860 -10's or HKS GT-RS (virtually the same I think) on their GTR that can comment on response sacrifice vs power gain?

The GTR ECU's cam be remapped so that is an option with the question about the ECU tune ability. Also if you are going to go for a Power FC it's worth while going for a D-Jetro. One of the member on here made 290 KW with his GTR when setting up his D-Jetro but made 312kw what the same tune and the AFM's removed (they were in there as a pod mounting bracket until he made something else up).

Don't think I'm gonna change to MAF sensors, I heard its not as "drivable" ie, great for power but mine is a daily :P

Ask people who have MAP based ECU's and you will find that that is an internet myth.

If want to ask someone in the know send Blue32 a PM.

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
