I have the 800cc SARD's - The units fit right in on the stock rail; I didn't have to lower it or anything, But I did modify the plugs slightly to fit the stock harnesses... they fit and work fine now. I basically just shaved down the tabs on the injectors so they don't collide with the stock harnesses and clipped them on. :D

I'm about to pull the trigger on buying a new pair of -5s, but a Greddy T517Z came up for sale for a lot cheaper after the Yen/USD conversion rate. Should I stick to the original plan of picking up the -5 or save some money and get the Greddy kit? Also, would the 900cc SARD fit right in like the 800cc ones would? Thanks in advance guys!

Have a search on here but the general outcome is the -5's come on a bit more (there have been a couple back to backs).

I did see a thread about comparing the two, but I wish they gave more info on the Trust turbos such as if it's ball bearing or journal bearing, etc. Maybe I'm not searching well enough, but I couldn't find that info anywhere.

Never mind, I found a decent thread from another forum. Anyone have experience with both T517Z and -5s that could tell me if there was a big difference in the two or not?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
