Hey all - am chasing the names of companies that can rebuild my turbo. The only one I know of is Turbotech. Any others that you would recommend or have experience with? PM me if you feel your comments aren't appropriate for the forum. :thumbsup:

Thanks...

MIQ which is in Victoria road Malaga.9209 1677

Used to be the old Dynamic Turbos operation and is now run by a guy called Eric.

Knows his stuff but can be depressing to talk to :thumbsup:

If you have spoken to him you'll know what I mean. Did my 581's and rebuilds most of Maximums Subaru rally ones.

cheers

Cam,

Any truck or boat tech shop will be able to do it. I had the problem with the old Supra before anyone knew about Jap Imports, just find one of those places, if it is just seals, or trhe mill or the bearing, they will build it and replace component and preasuree test it and all..................

TurboTech charge arm and a leg.........................

They think they are the only gusy in the City, ehehehhehe, but in fact lot more people know the turbo components........

al

The good thing about those places they can find parts for them without you having to buy entire kit for the turbo...............

Any diesel engine shop, might be able to help......if you are finding parts as stand alone or got the turbo out and can do it yourself.........

My sisters huby did it for me :(

Thanks for the info guys.. I ended up saving my pennies for now and sourcing a 2nd hand stock unit.. The upgrade will be comming after my Euro trip this year (which is why I'm trying to save $)...

Again - thanks guys.. I think I'll be getting a VL unit in October. :(

Hmm - fitting the turbo is turning into more than just a re-bolt on. Have found some problems as a direct result of bad workmanship by *** performance (in wangara - you work it out) who fitted the dump - missing bolts and flange holes not lining up by a mile. You wouldn't think the fabrication of a flange would be so hard...

Anyways - on inspecting the compressor wheel on my old turbo vs my new one, I found that the new one has dual vanes while the old one has single? Any ideas? I'll post up comparative pics tonight.

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
