I realise the banks don't care, they're only after one thing and it aint your well being. I realise the extra *whatever amount* is a drop in the ocean but then you're paying interest on that amount for the life of the loan. I don't know about you, but I don't want to be paying a gearbox off in 15 years time. lol.

It's the banks money which you're paying back. Redrawing for stuff like extensions (when renting it out) or to purchase shares, yep totally, as that's tax deductible. To pull out for a gearbox, you'd have to have rocks in your head.

Hurry up and screw some boost into yours will ya :D

boost won't be turned up till you get your new gbox :P

I was referring to the OS88 cuz we all know a standard box in Sperm whale will last oh say maybe a day :D

I'll "turn it down" to its minimum. 420 on gate pressure with 98. :(. Might have to turn the controller on and soften the gain up. Haha

still awesome numbers Paullie on 98

I think common sense and a bit of kindness to the standard box will help ya mate

Not really cheap. Its 2k cheaper than a new one ex japan.

Keep in mind everything in japan went up by 3% as of April 1st with new sales tax hike.

Another 2% due in September. :verymad:

Where did you get that info from, Paul?

If [NITTO] R34 can thrash 3.2L's worth of power and torque through one, then that is plenty tough enough :D

I will just leave these here:

    • 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!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
