has it always been like that? Did the seller say it had diff turbos? If he didnt why would u not say so to warrant higher sale price? Easies way is to check the markings on the compressor cover. But u said coilpacks are f**ked? When does it misfire

to be honest cant remember how long its been like this but as long as I can remember, basically got the car imported through a private importer but he didn't know of any changed turbos as such and being my first turbo car it wasn't until i actually looked at dyno threads that i realized its hitting full boost very late the car misfires coming onto boost or generally struggles at low revs when warming up especially changed plugs and no change so waiting for splitfires now.. but as Hamish said waiting for nengun is >_<

how hard is it to check markings what shit do i have to take off

and if it were a leak wouldn't the car not make it to 1 bar on my gauge?

nah it will still reach target, just laggy as the pressure leaks constantly during build. Mine did the same just a touch laggy and lacked some zest

ah yeh makes sense will go have a look at a few things

Guess what? Something you guys will never think I would do :O. Greddy type s coilovers (hamishs recommendation) ordered from jap land. Then some whiteline adjustable sway bars are next :D

Nice man, i got swaybars on their way too :banana:

Are you still going for an e85 tune?

I would love to do more low! But then that would have to park the car outside cuz it won't get into the secure parking in my appartment. :( there will be heaps more low when I get my own place with a good driveway :)

by all means get more low. Then i will take the car spot!

:D :D

eh tightened and checked every clamp i could still no change fml, maybe ill just wait for coilpacks and see if they make any difference

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
