How far from Newcastle are you? There is definitely no restriction with the 4 inch. Just need to return the bov's back into it and get a good quality filter.

I'm in Canley Vale, solid 2 hr drive away.

don't need the bov return or breather :)

I've got a 3" intake going to my 4" turbo, doesn't boogie well

Got some results, here is a dyno graph comparing the turbo that I took off. The red line was with stock wheels, the Green line with 19 inch wheels and 305 tyres.not sure if that would make a difference.

The actuator holds around 27 psi as shown, I wasn't expecting that so I need to get a lighter one to hook the boost controller back up.

It seems like the stock rb25 manifold is a restriction now so the next job is to make a decent one to see if we can get over the 400 hump.

Also the tune hasn't been adjusted for the different turbo as there wasn't enough time and I was only worried about it being safe to drive.

It drives great though. Can't wait to see what difference a good manifold will make.

I'm happy too that the internal waste gate works properly.

Looking forward to feedback thanks.

Very similar one with different housings and the next size up turbine. Still not a bad result from a $50 turbo.

Not the last one wouldn't make any more power with more boost so I don't know if this one would make the same on less boost than what it's running. Currently.

You should have gone external gate from the start, I have made 430+ on the stock exhaust manifold a few times now externally gated off the housing.

You could always run twin gates seeing that internal one won't open anyway. :)

You talking about my intake Johnny? Greg made 400kw through one in his auto, safe to say it will flow 450 odd. It's not like your turbo has a 4 inch compressor. :P

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
