Hi bazr33, I have yet to find an aftermarket turbo that bolts up, I have had to fabricate/buy stuff every time. That's why I use lots of the GCG ball bearing hi flow R33 GTST/R34 GTT turbos, now they bolt straight on, no mods or stuff to make or buy. I strongly suggest you do a search, there is plenty of info:cheers:

HKS 25** series do bolt straight on with a T3 flange.  Although you will be up for new oil and water lines which im scrambling up at the moment

Do those turbos bolt back up to the stock dump pipe as well?Or is it only the oil and water lines that dont line up.

its pointless statement really .. i have a high flow dump pipe, and its exactly teh same bolt pattern as the standard dump pipe, so high flow dump, or standard it makes no difference .. it;ll bolt straight on ....

no meaning to flame here, but just pointing out they are the same ..

personally i'm going down the router of a GCG high flow. ... as soon as I have time to get over there and pick one up that is ...

Isnt that a bit of a waste though? if you have a HKS GT25 turbo and still use the standard dump pipe? how much power do you lose?

What about the inlet piping and compressor outlet piping? how do they bolt up?

Yes will be a waste, certainly that will be your restricting point.

Inlet piping is the same, outlet piping is slightly different, you have to get a 90 degree turn, I got the HKS one, its alot better flowing than the stocker.

I would be going the HKS 2540. If you get the kit it comes with everything needed to bolt including the coolant lines. My mates r33 gts-t has run a 12.3 with one of these turbo's on a dead stock motor.

Nice time, it all depends on the driver, someone on here has done a 12.5 with a 2530, your mate has done a 12.3 with a 2540 which is awesome, but then i know someone has done a 13.4 with a 2535. And then ive done a 12.9 with a stocker.

Well it shows the true potential of each, certainly the 2535 has more left in it.

About the 90deg return piping, is there a way to stick with the stock one? or do we need to fabricate a new one?

Oh and does anyone know what kind of restriction in terms of power the stock dump pipe is?

You could possibly just buy a 90 degree hose instead.

Off topic, question for the people with 12.3, 12.5 and 12.9[stock]...

Do any of you beat gtir's? I'm not talking about a rolling run, I mean at traffic lights(provided its safe)?

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
