Yeah was baycorp I think...didn't pay a cent of interest..Cant complain..

exactly... you did well considering what could have happened

also you provided a perfect case study to show the system works :P

i wouldn't bother with the split dump, not worth it at such low power levels, by the time you need it you have an external gate anyway.

i picked up a dump, front and cat for $300, tomei dump, trust front and nfi what cat it was.

those aftermarket turbos expect even 2nd hand to have to pay, my ef3 2nd hand was still $1600

Hmmm, yeah. That's why I was thinking wasn't on my immediate to-do list. Haha yeah some good second hand parts would be nice!

Haha yeah. Should probably include MAP2.5 to that list. I think I'd be happy with a 9 turbs however, dat response.

The other funds sink is the minor other supporting mods like bov, gauges... Maintenance stuff.

Aaaand of course sussy and wheels, and an e9 rear bar. Also I'm thinking nose chop.

So many plans xD

oh yeah and re evo... probably e7 best BFYB imho... 230awkw from just I/C piping, 8MR OEM turbo, fuel pump, full exhaust, boost solenoid and stock ECU flash.

I have most stuff... just need the turbo and LICP and i'm ready to go, so far have spent about $500 (secondhand stuff)

Yeah. Some 7s sold for some good prices. But I'd probably aim for a bit more, hence an 8. Not to mention other little nice things... like bigger fuel tank :P

3xe or whatever they're called do the licp for under $100 I think, with all the joiners and clamps too.

Brand new was cheaper than any other second hand I could find.

Yeah? Last I checked hot side around $150, cold side around $280... But as a set I think he does < $400 for both. But yeah like I said, x3e was what I was looking at for this :thumbsup:

What's wrong with the e7 tank... It makes you feel like the car's fuel efficient cos it only costs $50 to fill :P

see it's just not worth the hastle...

e85 will get me to what, 250awkw vs 230?

and for that I need to do injectors and make huge efforts for fuel

that's a lot of effort for less than 15kw/tonne

I feel it'd push more than 250, if pushing 230 w/ 98, though...

it's worth getting the tune etc... but TBH I ended up running the 33 on 98 most of the time due to CBFness

290rwkw is enough for daily duties in a gtst

Yeah I fear the ceebs will flow through me lol

Like buying an fc hako etc etc

from discussions on evo oz it seems to net around 250 w e8MR turbo and 260 w e9 turbo

hmm, what sort of boost is that running?

-----------------------------------------------------------

there's a caltex with e85 on my way to uni, so i think i'll be sweet! also more or less on the way to work (sliiiight detour). only drainer is if i need to go in the other direction haha... although dat dual map tune for worst case scenario...

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
