just a question

[SKYBEE]

now as everyone here asks what turbo for me?

well i am asking that but i have a few in mind i have the folowing mods

FMIC arc type wit the BOV as well

HKS POD

3 inch DUMP back exhaust trust

blitz dsbc

nismo 2 way lsd

nismo clutch i have been told heavy but not knee breaking material

any way

the turbos i have in mind are low mount cos i dont want piggys tellin me to remove all this hard work

hks 2540? too laggy for normal driving? good turbo though?

hks 2535?? good alrounder i have been told

of high flow my excisting turbo to something special

i guess most of you will say i will need a comp upgrade well i have a mate whos confident we can massage an autronic to suit my needs

as for injectors will they need replacing or should i go a larger pump and a rising rate reg and just increase the duty cycle

is there any thing else i should be told

btw does any one know where i can get a series 2 a/c compressor in victoria ??

thank you in advance

if u spoke to sydneykid he would be able to tell u about highflowing ur exsisting turbocharger. or just visit the gcg website. www.gcg.com.au and have a look there. prices on there are sometimes a little higher than the reality price so email them and ask.

I'll start by saying my car has the same mods as yours + a few more (engine an power wise) and I just recently completed the same thing your looking at.

my upgrades from where your at were:

Microtech LTX-12 ecu + handset

Malpassi adjustable fuel regulator

largest bosch in tank fuel pump available

HKS dump pipe

Hi-Flowed turbo

(standard injectors)

currently on a safe tune running 18psi = 224rwkw (got 238rwkw@22psi)

my car had 172rwkw before the upgrade.

cars power is very smooth and progressive, but full boost is @ about 4500rpm and of course its a bit more fuel hungry.

after all of this the car is being re-tuned (fine tuned) in 2 weeks which I'm told we can change a few things to the timing etc... to bring the turbo spool up to be sooner....but will wait and see.

The hi-flow is a great option, you get a new turbo (internally) so no question to it's reliability an how long it will last and It's cheap, you can exchange your turbo for the Hi-flow (round $1400-$1500 mark exchange) plus no modification needed to ANYTHING.

But if I could wind back time, i would probably have gone a Apex'i AX53B70 as i'm informed are a GREAT turbo that will produce the same amount of kw's and be much more streetable (spool up earlier). I looked at HKS but believe the Apex'i is a better street turbo where as the HKS tend to be out an out power?

(just what I've heard and discussed with turbo specialists.......they are both awsomw turbos.......before i get abuse from HKS fans forum wide)

anyway, goodluck with it all!!, there's my 2cents, hope it helped...
