Well the decision was made not to go with another stock NEO as the risk of failure again with the new EFR setup was too high! It was OK belting around the track on 300kw with the old setup but the big

I agree, hard pipes are a better idea but welding a bend to the turbo makes it almost impossible to sell. Straight joiners on a cast alloy 90 may be a little better but it will limit your power as the internal diameter is much smaller.

I was running 40psi through mine, 2 inches from the maifold. Perhaps yours is just too close, can you spin the housing a little?

There are some great heat insulating and heat reflection products out there these days, no need to change the setup imo.

I run a 45deg silicon bend exactly the same as yours, on the track punishing it for 20 mins at a time running 21psi it was fine. Has held up to two of those track days now. But as scotty said, mine sits probably 4-5 inches from exhaust manifold and has zero issues.

I dont think resale is an issue as i am so happy with the results and performance i dare so i wont feel the need to change :)

Ill try the alloy elbow off the housing as i dont want to restrict any performance!

Good point about rotating the housing, that is something i hadnt thought of and will have a look, could be possible even if its just a bit...

Yep so i think mine is too close to the mani for one as i can only just get my hand between it.

Ill just get it welded up and do it right this time i think! I need to eliminate any potential problems!

So the car has its new home and i will try get my tools and stuff across there on the weekend! I think the shed will need its own build thread so i can come up with some designs... At this stage i am working on something like this -

Then maybe i should coat this white and do the white writing on the tyres? :rofl:

So, no real updates here... Moving house took a lot longer than expected and since doing that we have had no internet and no phone service hence we have been in the stone age!

I have started working on the shed as planned and its coming together as per my rough floor plan -

As some of you know the car is back at its second home.... JEM....This visit is just to fix a few weak spots we found at the track day....

Hopefully when it returns to the road it will also be quite capable on the track, 2014 will be more focussed on track days and hopefully will get some good laps in without issues!

This photo is thanks to Mr Paul Kelly :D -

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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!
