As the title suggests , doing a manual conversion on an RS4 , 33 ECU and wiring - 2WD with gearbox .

The Turbo is getting old so i thought with the build a new Turbo would be an idea . Now it will be a manual I am thinking a larger/unrated turbo would be beneficial .

I would like to stay with original T3/4 fixings but if that is not a good idea tell me !

Any experience and issues would be a great help .

Head over to the Hypergear turbo thread in the forced induction section; Stao is pulling some pretty impressive numbers with bolt on highflows.

His current one ran 350kw (I think) admittedly E85 on a fabricated manifold, but it looks like a stock r33 turbo.

Getting your old turbo beeefed up has the advantage that it will just bolt straight in. If you have the time you cold post it to Hypergear or there must be local rebuilders although as above Stao from Hypergear has done some great development work. If you want a brand new turbo the Garrett GT3076 could get you 300kw if done right.

I use the garret 3076r 56t with a .63 on mine with a manual awesome turbo and not to much stuffing around to make it fit in my terms , makes 338rwkw on 17psi so more to come yet when I turn the boost up (that's using e85)

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
