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.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
