300rkw? yeah that turbo will get you 300, i'm not an expert on VQs, but i hear good things about them, have you consider a twin turbo setup?

nah, 300rwhp, to begin with, but after upgrades hoping for around 500ish rwhp,

does it matter that the turbo is suited for a diesel???

i have thought about twins but im trying to keep the build cost at a minimum, twins would be good coz of the v configuration, tho im happy with a big single :ermm:

thats exaclty why im asking mate, i have been searching but getting mixed results with the gt4088r, my first response was it would be wayy to big...

and my next one was the precision pt67 as it is smaller, comparible to the 35r, but didnt know if it would run out of puff etc???

also should add i have been in a vl which had a gt4088r but slightly larger rear and it seemed pretty damn good, not the most responsive turbo tho not the most laggy either...

what would be perfect would be spool/boost characteristics for each, as when they would start and reach full etc

You been on one with a GT35?

I'll assume the answer is a no.

Select the turbo that fits your power goal, it's as simple as that. There is SOOOO much information in the pages of this forum about GT30/GT35/GT40 series turbos that you couldn't possibly be in the dark

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
