Low Power For Mods

[DVS JEZ]

Its a 4" intake off the turbo reduced to 3" to pod filter. Tuner reccomends a better flowing rear housing and a bigger turbine wheel.

He also mentioned when they unbolted the exhaust it gained 20rwkw.

Then u have an exhaust restriction

[T.D]

If he gained 20rwkw from unbolting the exhaust (which does sound like a restriction for sure), raise the boost to about 18psi and add a few degrees of timing from removing the restriction, still sounds like he'll still be falling abit short of where the GTX3076R should be?

[T.D]

Compared to where most others are (even with the GT3076R).

Spot on. But with the restriction gone anything can happen

Very true mate. Will be interesting to see what happens when he gets it re-tuned after removing the restriction.

Keep us updated with how you go GotsWapan

With the non-garrett turbine housing possibly being the rest of the problem we might have the answer.

Will make a new thread in time when I get a new exhaust. Will probably keep an eye out for a high mount kit. Pretty sick of mucking around with this low mount rubbish.

[T.D]

IMHO, if I had my time again I would opt for a low-mount over a high-mount simply due to the EPA emissions risk when the po-po pop the bonnet.

With a low-mount, you can keep it hidden and stealth looking if you play your cards right. With a high-mount, it doesn't matter what you paint black or how much heatshielding you use, there's no hiding the aftermarket turbo.

Try sort out the issues with the low-mount if you can, but if you really want a high-mount..... just buy my car instead. I've already sorted out all the headaches, just jump in and drive hahaha

bigger turbine wheel??? maybe the tuner is the problem too.. be better off with an external gate on the 0.82rear, the internal 0.82 costs more anyway..
