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 everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope!
