Supercharged Vs Turbocharged

[PN-Mad]

Osiris is good for whatever you can get a AFM to read. Has been used on cars with over 1000hp (USA)

With an AFM upgrade it will do everything that the HKS kit will do on a std motor. Without boost control, you dont even need to upgrade the stock AFM.

Also HKS FCon is available.

got most shit sorted plugs etc.

thinking about using royal purple oil and filter. its not cheap but is it worth it?

also turbo timer HKS or Apexi?

any recoms on electronic boost controller?

what about deleting the cat?

cheers

Go Motul 300v or NEO. Both are better than RP.

No turbo timer - not required. Just drive comfortably for the last block or two before you get to your destination

EBC - HKS EVC, Blitz IBC or Greddy Profec B.

Why delete the cat? Just get a high flowing cat. If it is the HKS turbo kit, leave the cat as is.

Definitely aim to keep some kind of catalytic converter in the vehicle to at least keep it street legal. There's no point in having a nice performance car if it gets taken off the road for failing emissions tests in random inspections. It's way more hassle than its worth.

Cheers, then shakes head no? *confused*

anyway- what injectors are you using? Did you get a real ECU solution?

Royal Purple is fine, its in my car atm, but as iamhe said - there are better oils again. Buy filters from nissan

As has been said- no need for turbo timer, your expert friend should know that. turbo is oil and water cooled and as long as you dont flog it and turn it off right away will be fine.

Use a simple manual boost controller, unless you like spending 4-600 on something fancy. It'll do the job, but you'll just lose 1.5psi in the top range. nothing bad.

Kit comes with a high flow HKS cat unless you didn't get it. Suggest you use it.

is royal purple worth the money?

HKS or apexi turbo timer?

whats a value for money electronic boost controller,so many to choose from!

Read the oil thread, educate yourself. Its in the general maintenance thread.

WHY do you need a turbo timer? Did you listen to what we said?

if u get the utec hen it comes with optional boost controller and u cna program 5 different maps and change with press of a button..

As for oil, go on g35 driver and search, for FI most use Mobil 1 or Shell Rotella Syn T

RP is expensive and doesnt like our engines...

If you have a mongoose alarm most have turbo timer func built in you can program. If not then dont worry about it, just drive it slow before you get home and let it cool down..

For oil, I'd suggest Mobil 1. Not a fan of motec and RP is overpriced.
