Hi guys

Need help deciding what turbos im gonna use next

Currently running gtss turbos on e85 and making 368 kw at the rears.

I want more power but no more lag

What are my options?

Iv heard borg warner turbos are good

Any suggestions?

Keep in mind I dont want it to be laggy and its a street car

Thanks!

In terms of twin options I think your about out of luck, the amount of power u are making with those turbos is quite decent.

Next step would be to either go stroker kit with -5s so u don't lose the response or go to a single set up

In saying that you haven't really described ur set up

Agreed.

More boost will still give you more torque, but it will heat the charge air also.

Opening up any restrictions will help a little, as may cams etc. HKS Vcam if you can find one perhaps?

How much more power are you chasing ? What can the current internals handle , as scotty quoted charge air temp with more boost (water injection setup ? extra injector plumbed into plenum) ,... what rpm range suits your driving , how many demerit points can your licence handle....lol... pac performance got 1000hp ,maybe give them a call for setup options that they tried . 368kw is a fair wack of power at the treads and can be hard to put it down efficiently with out smoke...unless thats what your chasing...... bigger single turbo= more lag time with incorrect cam timing ... poor cam timing will create rough idle and poor slow speed drive ability ...hope that makes sense ive had a beer or two :cheers:

    • A lot of the trim pieces on the E39 are super brittle and just dissolve when you try to get them off. It looks like a previous owner has used what can only be described as an industrial construction foam adhesive to glue down a tiny piece of trim.  Unfortunately this part of the tailgate is starting to rust because of how much shit is in here. This is stopping the water draining and there's a big build-up of dirt that is just staying wet. How can I remove this? Would a flap disc get rid of this?  I think this car spent a lot of time inland. There's so much light coloured, fine dirt and dust everywhere.  Sorry for the pic. I've cleaned this all up now so I'll get another pic of it clean today.
    • Surely, just about any shop that has done a Skyline (or Supra, or RX-7, or EVO, or WRX) will have done E85. But perhaps you need to specify what type of car, what type of engine, what ECU, you propose to be using.
    • Try an oil additive. There's a couple of options for "easier shifting". These are essentially a similar idea to what Redline put into their Shockproof gear oils. I had a 2nd hand R33 (in fact, as of right now, it is still in the car) that simply would not engage any gear with the engine running, with normal gear oil in it. We dropped that and replaced it with Shockproof lightweight, and suddenly the gear lever did what it was supposed to. At a cost, of course, of the then ongoing damage to internals done by running Shockproof. But the synchros were already totally uninterested in life, so there was no loss.
    • It always ends with the car burning down.
    • I see what you posted, but how could a warning light be going on and off if there is no sender for it?  The only other explanation is that the wire that used to go to the sender from the warning light is earthing somehow in the loom or at the connector, or that you have connected the warning light wire to something (maybe the temp sender?).
