So i have a 2002 r34 gtt and i took off the stock turbo and bolted on a new turbo (link for turbo at bottom of post) and did a nice job of the pipes and hoses, made sure oil was running through the turbo nicely before starting, had to slightly rotate housing during instal i dont think that caused any issues such as the fins not spinning and started her up and went for a drive

I was absolutley gutted the car drives like a non turbo and iv notices a rattling sound coming through the exhaust any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Have you checked the shaft spin s freely by removing the intake pipe by hand?

It is not really a high quality turbo so the is a chance it Is a dud.

Edit.. It's scary they say you can use stock oil feed line. Bush bearing turbos need more oil flow, as the ball bearing turbos have a restrictors in the stock oil feed line, so it is very likely the turbo is not getting enough oil flow.

These TRS4376S Hybrid turbochargers are able to produce 480 hp equipped with the right supporting modifications

if you dont have any it will run like shit. you need an ecu and a tune at the very least.

ok so the Oil Feed in the new turbo has a restrictor bolt inside with a tiny hole and the bolt i used that came with it has a 3.4mm hole but it hits the inside restrictor.

il get the pics up in an hour, but i hooked the charcoal cannister to the plenum which goes onto the boost pressure sensor and theres a T at the cannister end that goes to the motor, maby powersteering?, as for the turbo outlet and the wastegate T's into a boost pressure solenoid and another hose comes from the solenoids top that goes nowhere atm i think its a bleed hose? maby it was hooked into the original frontmount pipe?

you wont get f**k all. stock exhaust? stock dump? stock ecu?

if it does come on the ecu will shit itself and not know what the f**k is going on.

pop your stock one back on, buy the mods first, install them all trailer car to tuner and tune it.

then itll work.

oh for real?, i was certain boost was atleast supposed to come on

It should work but not ideally. Should still boost.

I put on a garret 3071 and drove it for two weeks (gently) before i had time to tune it. Even a little boosting, but obviously taking it easy.

Unless the wastegate flap somehow came off the actuator arm i would be worried the Turbo is dead. I would also be worried it's not getting enough oil.

That's not true at all. As in previous post I should add I was still running stock exhaust and the car boosted fine with a 3071. Obviously I didn't hammer the car, but it definitely worked and definitely made boost.

Turbo went on first as I had and cess to a mates hoist at the time which made it heaps easier to do it t then.

Im off to diagnose with 2 mechanics soon il repost if its shat the turbine whats a good turbo reccomendation, anything bolt on by any chance? do you reckon the engine is taken damage from the turbo failure? i drove about 10 mins

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
