You are looking at spending 10k to have it pull hard..

You will spend a lot less if you get your stock turbo highflowed to the right profile, it will definitely give you the pull hard effect and will cost you a lot less.

I reckon a Hypergear G3.5 highflow will do a good job of the desired task, the delivery will give monster pull without being a pig to drive.

Before you ask, you will need a full 3" TBE, FMIC, fuel pump, injectors and an ECU at a minimum.

It's not rocket surgery.

It's not brain science either.

GTScotT is offering some sound, experience based advice. He's also considering the driving outcome and financial aspect of things.

However if you are chasing a 500rwhp setup you won't likely get there with a GT30 setup. Go the GT35 and be mindful of people's comments to this point.

At the moment no one has given me a answer or opinion on what one would be more suitable

Yes they have...this:

I reckon a Hypergear G3.5 highflow will do a good job of the desired task, the delivery will give monster pull without being a pig to drive.

and see also:

Look at the rb25 dyno results thread. It's not rocket surgery. People don't have to tell you what to do, you can figure it out yourself sometimes!

and forget the GT35

3076 56T with a .63 on E85 hits like a sledgehammer...

the hypergear stuff in same size are a more linear pull and deceptively quick, but probally faster no doubt

guess it depends what you after, i have no idea what a 3450 feels like on a rb25, only 25/30's and 30s's

guessing boost response would be fairly bad on a manual

cheers

Glad you put that 3 inch cooler piping, talk about overkill. You can make an easy 300kw on 2.25 inch piping.

Stop slapping parts on and read, there is so much information here you should be able to work out what you need, then see if you can go for a spin in a few members cars to get a feel for the response. I am guessing the GT35 will be a little too laggy if you plan to drive it daily.

Read this thread - ultimate RB "pull hard" setup, make numbers in the range of GT35R peak power but spooling similar to the smaller GT30 range turbos:

    • How have you run it in / what has been done in those 6 hours? Also, you need to do the test hot. You have to load the new motor pretty hard to bed the rings in quickly and properly, doing it on the dyno is best and only takes an hour-ish The other question is.....what were the measured clearances post machining and do they match the specs for the piston and rings
    • Sounds like a good outcome, must be nice to have it working well, and yes everyone seems to top out under 250rwkw with a low mount rb25 so you are in the right ballpark. It really would have been worth setting up the boost controller at the same time, but at least now you can share some back to back data on how much difference holding the gate closed until you need it makes
    • I've done this both ways, I'd use the original loom & swap plugs on the engine side as you'll usually end up changing a lot of those anyway. Series 1 is usually non ABS which requires wiring which I can't remember how to do as haven't done it for over 15 years. The auto inhibitor is easy to bypass or in the meantime you can put it in neutral & unbolt it & tape it somewhere in the bay haha, then just wire reverse lights. I'd go straight to aftermarket ecu. A few basics are built in ignitor coils & reverse the CAS wiring, sort the plugs for whatever injectors & IAC-you can use an adaptor for the neo type otherwise the s1 will still work, use the knock sensors that suit the loom & it'll be pretty much running.  
    • This is for an RB20DET. Sorry for not including that. 
    • Welp, this is where my compression lands after my rebuild. Thoughts? I have ~6 hours on the motor.
