I have an old school turbo kit on an RB26DETT I am getting, thinking of updating the turbo same time with a Precision Billet Turbo of similar power in the same twin scroll fashion but want to know exactly what I have. It has a Garrett A/R 84 and an HKS Exhaust housing with either 0.80 or 0.90 stamped on it. What is the powerband and what model turbo is it? Engine is equipped with Sard 700CC injectors, N1 272 cams, Upgraded ITB's, HKS bottom mounted cast iron mani with a big HKS external gate to the top. The Downpipe is a huge 4" setup and the turbo even though old is pretty big. I am yet to have a proper look but it seems to have a bit of work done to it like extended sump, a 24U block etc. Can someone chime in as to what size turbo it may be and powerwise?

TA45 rings a bell. Pretty sure that's what came with the rb26 kit.

Though the turbo could have been changed any time in the last 20 years as it's unlikely the one that originally came with the kit is still alive.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
