Surge from what? Fuel?

If money is an issue look at other brands like mamba, pulsar, Aeroflow

Money is not a problem but since i got a good deal on the GTX2860R gen2 aswell i thought that maybe its more worth to go that route.
pushing more than the GTX2860R gen2 are capable of may put the transmission into a risk zone anyway?

I think he meant turbo surge.

Whats the minimum power you think you can run on that without promblems like surge etc

You won't have surge problems from turning the boost down. Outright inefficiency maybe, from running off the island, but not surge.

Define expensive.

My idea of expensive is genuine G30 or EFR pricing. Like $4k. If you're talking ~<$2k, to align with your other OP prices, then.... none of that is "expensive".

Gonna place an order on the:

849894-5002S GTX2867R 50/47MM

(GTX2867R GEN 2 A/R 0,86.) 

Then

I am now running a Aeroflow 5047 .64 rear (gtx gen2 2867 specs)

Previously ran a garret gtx gen2 2867 .82 rear

The .64 is the way to go as a lot more responsive.

I also run a stock 5 speed but its struggling and eating syncro's.
Car makes 220-270kw pending boost level.
 

Regarding oil restrictor for your GatX2867, which one are you going for ?

You don't talk to Garrett. Garrett are a Honeywell company and Honeywell sucks balls. Absolute arseholes.

In all such cases, you talk to your local distributor/retailer of the turbo, not the manufacturer.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
