I'm about to boost my n/a 34. Intercooler etc is sorted and fab work.

Q1. Do rb25 turbos and rb20 turbos use the same oil lines ? Because I have a set of speedflow braided oil feed and return lines an I want to know if they will bolt straight into rb25 turbos.

Q2. How would an rb20/25 turbo go if I get it rebuilt with a billet wheel and high flowed with a kinugawa adj actuator ?

Q3. Cost vs cost, which is better ? ^ that or going straight out and buying a kinugawa TD06 20G ?

The plan is to only run around 10psi as the n/a motors have higher compression values then the 25det neos. To pair with this, I'm just going to run the factory low mount manifold with a 2.5" twin entry dump, greddy type FV BOV and drift boost tee.

What's my best option ? Cheers guys. Kinugawa TD06 or rebuilt rb20 or 25 turbo with billet wheel and kinugawa actuator ?

Not much. Picked up a GREDDY FV BOV, permaseal gaskets, factory turbo manifold, twin entry dump and boost tee for $180 and I already had speedflow braided oil feed and return lines.

Looking at $400 for a return flow cooler with piping, $1k for a nistune install and tune then I'm looking for an op6 turbo or something similar.

You running factory non-det injectors and fuel pump?

If you're buying injectors and a fuel pump I'd sugest going straight for E85. its perfect for the higher comp motor and you will make more power on that small turbo

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
