I'm looking for a decent turbo for drag racing my r33 (automatic) since its a track car i don't care if its a cheap Chinese turbo. What is better for drags? Low mid or high range? I've looked at the pinned post about rb25 turbos wasn't much help.

I need something to get me in the low 13s. Should be easy.

Thanks

decent turbo to run at the drags.

This phrase, and the phrase about "cheap Chinese eBay turbo" do not belong in the same question thread.

Do you want a decent turbo so that you can go fast? Do you care about shitful boost response? Why drag race at all if not to win? etc.

That thread wasn't any help hey?

Absolutely unbelievable it wasn't any help... I mean it clearly shows you how much various turbos will make.

Then once you work out how much power you need to run a 13s pass though, you realise a stock turbo is capable of that and you still need to do a lot more research.

Hence - Thread closed.

Do some proper research first.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
