I'm going out to see John 2moro....

Chris (doughboy) is a good guy....please keep in mind that it is in his best interests also to fix this problem midnightGTR, I will be taking up the case of at least 3 people having the same failure as me with John 2moro, and he will be given the previously stated 3 options....

Thats exactly right. Chris isn't the bad guy here, hes only one man with limited resources and his intentions are always good.

Id bet money he knew as well as I do now that these turbos were going to be useless in under 2000kms. From the way he talked about this miracle turbo shop Precision hes used them before, no doubt heard of their problems, I dont really care how much you love Chris.

WillamsF1, im in Brisbane but if you need another case against this dodgy workshop ill help however I can.

GETSET can you please write maybe a few more less choice words about your situation? I am planning on taking it up with them personally.....

your imput and problems would be good for all to hear I think....

I'm going to have to close + get this thread edited, there's too many groundless claims and assumptions that could be be damaging to SAU, the turbo business named and myself.

Quoting an employee from the turbo company, Midnight should be dealing direct with him as the problem lies with either installation, use or the actual repair on the turbos. The product sold was as described, the "problem" with the turbos has not been diagnosed. Contrary to misguided beliefs, I had no prior knowledge of the quality of the repairs nor the lifespan of the product, nor installation or running conditions. Although the "observations" by Midnight and his mechanic are quite different from the problems williamsf1 has seen with his turbos, I can neither argue for or against the work performed by the turbo company or will continue to provoke the immature and ignorant responces that have illustrated this thread. If you want to comment on how a Blitz turbo has anally penetrated you, or other creative nonsense you might want to open a thread in the wastelands area.

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
