Ta Ben...

so these are all relevant to Skylines as well, not just the Audi in the article?

Says "for all turbo cars".

Have a read over the table at the bottom of Part 2, it has a good side-by-side comparison.

Mmm think I'll give this a shot. For <$100 you cant go wrong.

My current DS BC is pretty average. Hopefully its not that hard to install and can be swapped over pretty easily?

Just need it before my SAFC install next week...

BOO57A, any ideas where the parts can be found quickly?

Edit: Did you read "Part #2" regarding the upgrades?

Ihave set up 2 R33's and an R32 with the improved setup from part 2 and they work very well. You can set your max boost very accurately and also set up the way boost comes on . You can also change its sensitivity eg you can have boost on all the time just touching the go pedal or you can hold it off until half throttle or full throttle . You can have it comming on early and building up steadily with revs or comming on with a huge bang at 5000 or anything inbetween.

I have the Norgren catalog and also a spare setup if anyone local is interested...Shane??

addit. If you use the one way valve you probably don't need the more expensive Metalwork regulator the Norgren is good enough

About how long does it take to set up this part 2 and approx cost of all the components?

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
