be costly new! I'd try CAPA, AVO etc and see if they have replaced the stocker and have it sitting around... Failing that try a ford wrecker (they should be able to link up on a network to find a smashed one). If you want one new, let me know - My friends parents own a ford dealership. (send a PM as I might not get back to this thread...)

if you call a ford dealer i am sure you will be surprised. I have heard it's about 1400. However be very mindful of buying that exect turbo, as it is specifically built for a 4L. You may have to swap exhaust housings for a more RB friendly one

They are more than $1400 brand new. I just bought one at a good price, yet to fit in on my RB30DET yet.

Keep and eye on these for sale forums and also calaisturbo, and trading they do pop up in all three from my epxerience

interesting. i've heard nothing but kudos about them on RB30's and RB25s ..from a guy that works are Rank Rotary and ATP i think .....had alot of 250 plus rwkw results on calais and what not ..

most guys been picking them up for 1400 at the most.

iwant one for my RB24 build up

Matt

hrmm Interesting.. :D

They are internally gated so that may suit my needs nicely, providing they will tap on 300rwkw's door. 299.1rwkw I'd be happy. :P

I wouldn't even dream of sticking one of those ford turbo's on a rb20. lol

6000rpm full boost lol..

i dont think that is what the discussion is about, dude. :bonk: :idea:

the turbo is roughly able to support somewhere near 500hp perhaps more. not too sure coz i'm yet to see a compressor map. At least then it would give everyone an indication of its "gurth"

I asked Brett at GCG the same Q a while back , $2500 . The only pics I was able to track down showed a .50AR compressor cover which Brett reckons is a TO4E . I don't know for sure but doubt Garrett would try to squeeze a 56 trim GT40 compressor into a 50 TO4E cover , could be 50AR TO4S cover with small snout ?

I would be interested to know if Garrett do an integral gate .82 exhaust housing to suit its GT35 turbine , Ford used the 1.06AR version I think .

Cheers A .

shit if its 1400 sign me up ( i just like the fact i dont need a wastegate.. plus i know if i get one it will be the atmo which i dont want to do)

so are we talking about boost about 4k (my rb is 2.658 litres)

steve when did it come on in the rb25

cheers

The car we did was a stocker RB25 with only ECU cooler and exhaust so we stopped at 350rwhp, only needed a soft ign Map and 14psi.

A stock rb25det, with ecu, exhaust & what...the xr6 turbo pulling 250rwkw's fark, is this true

Where are you located, give me info, ill pay you to do this to my rb25, gees! :jump:

    • Yes, well, keep in mind that the air is intake air, which equal boost + possible oil. If there is a fine deposition of oil/scunge that then gets hot and carbonises, it could look just like that. Probably shouldn't be leaking. Might just be normal for that product. Hard to know if it is relevant.
    • Wrapped up putting the motor back in today. I have a stainless flex turbo drain pipe like you see on cummins and that funny enough PRP started selling. I generally prefer these but sadly they come with a finite amount of times they can be bent before they snap. Took well over a week for a replacement to arrive.  I was able to prime the pump but I will more then likely wait until next friday to take it on its madden voyage. I also installed the nozzles for my direct port WMI setup but plugged the nozzle holders for now. I'll tube it with Swagelok SS tubing and fittings next chance I get. No rush, i'll be breaking it for a week or two anyways. 
    • I could definitely do some logs without the VCT enabled for sure. I believe we tried it on the dyno and it still spiked but wouldn't hurt to try again and have the logs    I might be able to use some metal cable ties and hold the gate open entirely, I'd need to see about that one.   What do we think about these marks on the cap of the actuator? This is where the two parts push together where the diaphragm spring is. To me they look like air has been sleeping past?? Specifically talking about those black stains above the lower rim/lip. They can be rubbed away as if it's just an exhaust stain.  
    • And if it still spikes, just for now, turn off VCT completely by disabling it OR simply unplug the solenoid. Just to rule out excessive exhaust pressure. I recall a video from Motive DVD about a decade ago, where Hawkins original single Garrett GTX3582 or so turbo had boost control issues sub 1.4bar of boost as well.   Food for thought? Is there anyway you can peg the WG completely open and/or dodgily not plumb it back into your exhaust system for testing purposes?
