This build has not finished, alot more to come and i will try to update it on here and facebook.

currently waiting on motec for a revised Gpr package to run the Hi lo injection properly and also need some other setups to be completed.

Once i have the car running on M150 we can then start a new chapter on tuning and i know this will piss off alot of tuners out there lol.

Anyhow keep reading and learning as there is much more to come.

Yeah, I would love to see a dyno sheet and a boost curve for this.

It's an awesome build with some seriously cool hand made manifold and wastegate piping, I too am a little surprised to see a T70/T72 turbo mixed with the work of art parts around it, it's sorta like two steps forward and one step back when there are some much better technology turbos out there now.

......but I would love to be proven wrong :)

:/ wonder what ever happened to this build....

was super keen to see results but Im assuming its all fell short?? there aren't many high HP RB26 builds that seem to be able to successfully run a MoTec.

An ecu is only as good as the calibrator in most cases unless its 20year old technology.

Hear someone went to the big house for modifying things that go boom, boom... that might slow down progress perhaps?

Explain

If you are referring to Bobby you must be wrong as he is still quite active on Facebook. In fact he was actually taking the car out today

Meh....the reality is that the car must have fallen short of expectations

Really not sure how a full tune can drag out for 2 years... so claims that the build was f1 spec, just musn't show on the dyno graphs

there, i said it.

/thread.

You guys are all funny , you need to follow me on FB i dont get on here as much anymore!!!!

Been busy with large projects and i have managed to get the car sorted for its final tune, Chris from motec will be doing the final config as he has been away in USA.

So once the config is correct and the car responds, it will hit the dyno straight after that.

BTW the car drives perfect and the VENTURI works !!!!!

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
