Will be interesting to see what you get.

So, you have the highflow and a turbo back exhaust. Done anything else before the Haltech goes in (besides the "angry" eyelids)?

Pics? we wanna see....

What was the cost for highflow?

+1 on pics!

As for cost, it was GCG Turbo's so it should have been as per the quote I put in a thread here a few weeks back. From memory it's just a tad under $2k.

id say the inside has been bored

looks way bigger than stock

i got pics coming soon

1760 it cost so far just for the rebuild

$1760?? bastards, lol, they quoted me $1955.00, maybe yours was slightly downgraded from what I'm going for?!

*Quoted from one of my many email's to GCG*

"Whilst the unit is apart, all parts are replaced with new parts, such as the ball bearings and the seals. GCG also fit a larger compressor wheel, and machine the compressor housing to suit. A full gasket kit is also inlcuded in the upgrade.

Once the unit is modified, there are NO further modifications required for re-fitting. Another advantage is that all factory heat shielding can be re-used, and the unit looks factory. The price to do this upgrade is $1955.00 Including GST."

Either that or the econmic crisis *wank wank* has brought their pricing down, I want you to take me for a spin when it's fitted man! I want to see what the money gets you before I invest in the next month or so.

Danny, while you've got the turbo in you hand, could you possibly measure the housing for me? I need the compressor outside diameter so I know what will else will fit.

Im thinking of going to a Garrett 3582R or 3076R depending on the size, external gate to give me more room. (no actuator) They are about 200mm, and would have to be no more than an inch bigger than standard I guess for it to fit.

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      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.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      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.
