I'm in no way a novice DIYer. Most of my job is custom fabrication.

The high pressure actuator gives in stable boost as the wastegate is held open.

There is no vacuum out put on the turbo outlet so I have used the nipple on the next piece of pipe to the intercooler.

Next point. It's got 6mm of preload because that's all the thread that's on there, at 3mm preload it barely had any boost.

I can make them run what ever psi its required for the application. I was under the impression that you are using it for 250rwkws application so the original high pressure actuator was made and adjusted to suit.

If you can make no boost with actuator adjusted to certain degree means the waste gate setup is perfectly working. At 6mm pre-load means you've already pulled out half of the actuation length then the 14psi creep then drops to 7psi is predictable.

Ultimately it defeat the purpose of building this turbo, I'm looking forward to see you running high pressure actuator with supporting mods making that 250rwkws that you originally ask for. I’ll be happy to supply you with tunning maps if required.

noticed a s1 260 (dunno if it's real)on boostcruising for sale in brissie for $11,000 recently, needed a little bit of work apparently?

ps who knows it might be a real steal.

Guys, let's please keep it on topic.

Thankyou!!

I would of loved to buy a GTR R34. But why would I when:

1) I cant comfortably put the wife and two young kids in it comfortably.

2) Have limited storage in the boot

3) have a much higher purchase price.

4) and also a high cost on insurance.

I love my 260RS. Very practical, not many people know what it is (sleeper), basically its the best of everything!!

as much as i love the stagea, i have to disagree, my favorite of all time is still the Audi RS2, will win just about anything hands down (and also cause im building one but in a coupe shell :P)

I come from the north of scotland and there are quite a few RS2s up there, one guy has a 700+bhp one and its crazy. I used to have a 2.8 quattro coupe, 94 model.

    • If you are Ecutek tuned then these TCU tunes are anywhere from $550 to $700 usd. If you are not ECUTEK tuned, then it gets costly!    
    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
