Now have question my wife is off to japan in just over a week and is picking me up a power fc d-jetro edition, am thinking of doing a turbo upgrade while im at it any recomendations? I am wanting to keep a factory look so was thinking hypergear atr43ss2 I think is model this is kinda new for me so just wanting thoughts?

she is going without you? thats a bit rough... what part of Japan?

Ok sounds good install straight forward? Plumbing etc need changing?

i completely changed the intake pipe from filter to turbo but im guessing its the same... it sits slightly back from standard so sorta gets close to the A/C drain on mine...not sure with yours...oil line supplied was perfect. water lines on mine supposedly have to be bent a bit but mine was ok so maybe it got done when i put a hi-flow on it 15 years back...

My mate was also saying i should upgrade injectors and fuel pump while im at it?

if you run it to the turbo's max then pump and injectors will need doing,

SS1 you might not need to... depends how much you want down the track

Also as an idea for an upcoming event where could all catch up if anyone is keen but racewars 2016. Am going for the 3 days should be a fun event, unsure if will just watch or participate? Prob just watch?

Lachy told me 2 weeks ago that its not the best spectator event...only good if participating :closedeyes:

I change my blades quite often to try and help (and it does to a certain extent), perhaps a better blade is in order.

I usually wash my face and towel pat dry post shave before my after-shave.

So next stop, better blades.

You participated.... Maybe not worst thread ever??

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
