Mate if I was you I would have done it a year ago, I hate my -5s I should have went single from the start. But than I also like not having to worrie about the cops.

What exhuast you gunna run? Or you going to adapt the RPM one?

There is an issue SOMEWHERE in your setup. 330 on 5's is a little below par.

Well the RP one is twin 3 inch all the way. I'm thinking about not running the twin's front pipes, coming out the back of the turbo in a 4 inch then splitting that into a twin 3 inch to meet up with the "catback". Each gate will pluimb into 1 of the 3 inch pipes.

The SR result im reffering two, we overlayed my 2.8 and 5's. This SR with a 6262 had MORE bottom end grunt and made an extra 10 kw up top.

i no man, ill work it out one day, got a new exhuast coming and a new intake setup. So ill try that out, and c how it goes. If nothing improves ill just drive it as it is, till Stevo comes up with the goods on the bits and peaces to make her a lil bigger on the bottom end if you no what i mean, than prob throw the -5s in the bin lol

im very interested to c how this turns out but

Precision turbos are getting a lot of love recently, but with the results they are putting I think it's definently justified.

Is there a reason they aren't as common as Garrett's? Like we're they not to good back in the day or something along those lines?

^ Good question. I've followed US/Euro results for years and bleated on about some of the results people had been getting wth FP and Precision turbos for years and said the Garrett GTX turbos have been too little too late but for a large part seems to have fallen on deaf ears MOSTLY here, got the typical "inflated dyno figures" speels. Understandable that people need to see the results from familiar environments and setups, but that is probably largely why they haven't spread around this part of the world so much. Overseas in the EVO/Supra world they are EVERYWHERE.

Its also alot to do with the parity of the dollar, i have bought a one, yrs ago, and sold it and i bought a innovate turbo yrs ago from the U.S

when they where the "big" thing, but they where crazy money compared to garrets once you changed the dollar over and imported

compared to a garret here.

The other part is people talked out of there absolute arse about them on here without even trying them..with all the inflated dyno and need mega

high boost to work bullshit..its given me a good laugh lately.with the all results coming forth ...lol

cheers

A little? lol... A LOT!

Be interesting to see what you think, going to have the -5s running first for a month and then do back to backs?

Given you are changing head etc ;)

I'm still undecided Ash. It's a lot of work and a lot of dicking around.

Part of me thinks I've gone too big but if a SR is matching my -5 effort then I think I can go up one size, given I have 500 cc over that particular result. If it is too big well I'll drop back to 6262 or 6266.

    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
