Opinion on GT-t boost, Formaz

[rob77]

Personally, I'd just save up my pennies and wait till I had $2k and go down to steve @ sst and get a wolf3d installed. This will get you a full ignition/timing/fueling computer, remove your boost cuts, speed cuts and will also allow you to controll the boost as well. A safc is gonna set you back $550-$650 (depending on where you buy it) + dollars spent to tune it on the dyno. To up your boost now its gonna cost you about $100 for the bleed valve, I dunno how much the cut defenders are and then the dyno time to set it all up. Save the dosh and buy the ecu, you will get much better bang for buck.

So an R34 Cooler has heaps LESS pressure drop than a R33 Cooler?

Theoretically, putting a 34 cooler on a 33, you could wind the boost upto 12psi without giving the turbo a hard time ?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Kym, Yes, the R34 cooler is better, but it's the overfuelling that will occur at 12psi without an SAFC that makes me say that 10psi is better. I think with a decent full exhaust the boost will rise to a reasonable figure without the need to muck around with bleeder's for the time being.

I have an AFC, was thinking about a "Garage ala-Kym" Job if someone throws out thier old 34 IC

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Most R34 coolers are sold, and used on small turbo cars with crappy coolers, my guess is you'd pay about $150-200 for one, so not worth the upgrade.

I've got a bleed valve from previous owner (uninstalled), so the only unknown cost right now is for the boost cut defender(s), depending on how many I need..

I probably will go the ECU a bit later along the line together with the FMIC, but for now I just want a cheap and effective power increase in the form of boost + front/dump pipes. Sound like a good idea?

[GTS-t VSPEC]

ARGH34, Yeah, sounds like a good idea to me:D

Put the controller on and see how it go's before you spend the cash on the defenders.

[ARGH34]

You have PM Steve.
