I have been interested in turbo's but I've never really known much about them.. I took a look at some sites around the net and it seems my list below is what an entire turbo system would be composed of. Can you guys add anything more?

Note: In general terms. This is not a skyline application. :D

Turbocharger

Intercooler

Intercooler Piping

Exhaust Manifold

Fuel / Timing Controller

Fuel Injectors

Wastegate Assembly

Blow Off Valve Assembly

Downpipe

Intake

All necessary Hardware, Hoses, and Fittings

You sorta have it covered with the 'All necessary Hardware, Hoses, and Fittings' bit :thumbsup:

I'd add a decent fuel pump, upgraded air flow meter, and possibly things like cams, headwork, crank/rods/pistons, oil coolers etc depending on how suited the engine is to turbocharging in stock form and what you want to do with it. And don't forget a boost guage :D

Oh yeah, a boost controller would be good :thumbsup:

I like to steer away from thick head gaskets to lower compression, I much prefer to do it with a combination of headwork and crank, rods and pistons. There's nothing wrong with a properly designed metal head gasket, I just prefer the other way :D

      Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action

      Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand.

      Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!

      I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
