Hi All,


I have been reading around for a while to try and figure out my next mods.


I like something around 500bhp from fly which i think would be around 400 at wheel, right ?


I don't want to go forge or change cams at this stage .


I have seen gt35,30,28 and number of others but not sure what is best for me .


everyone has a different opinion reading around . what would you get and what is the max power from the turbo at what psi ?


I think gt30 is low mount which is good but gt35 or other are high mount and if i was to run gt 35 , I think it will be very lazy as I will be running it at a very low boost , right ?


I think minimum mod to get to 500 bhp is :


550 or above injectors

bigger intercooler

ecu ( link 4)

turbo .


and possibly manifold if it is not straight bolt on as most people say gt30 is .


am i right ?can i expect safe 500bhp from the car with the above cost and mod ?


if I was to do this in stages and buy the turbo and do no remap but run it at low boost , will it work ?


many thanks

That's what the info is though isn't it?. What people think and have experienced is all over the forum.

You are asking for it to be laid out for you to make it easier for you. Which is spoon feeding.

How did you read for 5 hours and not figure out that an rb25 can easily make that power, that pretty much everyone talks kW, that Hypergear high flows bolt straight on, that a gt35 will be a lag monster etc.....?

You will get heaps of different answers, time to learn and make your own decisions.

You did say you and found lots of dif opinions, so do you expect anything dif from a new thread asking the same thing???

Here ya go, this should get you started, be warned it may take you more than 5hrs of research to learn all thats needed.

Then again maybe not, it all comes down to you.

OK. Even though you don't need assurance, here goes.

You can do it. You can do a good job if you out your mind to it. I believe in your abilities. You're really good at cars. Never give up. Don't stop believing. Keep on being you, you are wonderful.

For someone with limited funds you sure have alot of funds to spend, from your recent threads. Anyway you're asking what turbo's best for you? gtx3076 is what you want. And i mean that in a medical sense.

Trust me, i'm a doctor.

    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
