we used a rb25 turbo on an rb20 and it was making 271rwhp on 17psi

so there is nothing wrong with using a 25 turbo iether just personal preferance and budget..

Rb20

VG30

FMIC

Fuel Pump

Exhaust

198rwkw @ 15psi

Did 1 run on 17psi and was going past 208rwkw when it ran out of fuel and was backed off, probably didnt have much more than 210rwkw.

(sorry about posting 3 times, comp messed up :P)

Hey bro

Yep i am going to be getting it tuned in perth.. i just got a yellow sticker so just been busy trying to get that off.. but after that the plan is to buy some r32 gtr injectors, and then give it to all star garage and get them to install a nistune chip and then get them to tune it.

Thanks niran

guys i need some info asap how do you tell the difference in the

Ballbearing vg30 t3 turbo

and the

Jurnal bearing vg30 t3 turbo

need info a.s.a.p?????????????????????????????????????????????

Hey man

I think it goes by the versions.. There was another thread where i asked the same question as you did and its somewhere on skyaus most likely on forced induction.. Besides that if you already have the turbo you could go to a jap shop and ask them too

i recently got a vg30 turbo to bolt onto my rb20, i have a few questions though, how do i find out if its ceramic or steele? it sais 45v2 on it.

Also, im putting the rb20 actuator on the vg30 turbs, will it hold 15psi or will i need an external wastegate?

how are u guys runing 17 psi through the vg 30 turbo if it has a ceramic exhaust wheel. is there a ball bering version with a steel exhaust wheel? and what are u doing ecu wise to run 17 psi remap? or just a tune?

niran i got

FMIC

exhaust

040 FP

Ebc

i want 198rwkw

what do i have to do apart from bolt the turbo on? coz that bit is no prob

    • 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) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
