Question on turbo upgrade r33


Recommended Posts

Hey Ppl

Ive just been doing dome searching on upgrading my turbo. I have found plenty on turbos that will fit the standard exhaust manifold but i can't seem to find a turbo that will also fit the standard dump.

Does anyone know of a upgrade turbo which will fit the manifold and dump.

The reason being is that i have just recenetly bought a BOS importing front and dump pipe, this bolts directly to the stadard turbo with a seperate exhaust pipe and wastegate pipe.

Any help would be great. If i can't get a new turbo to fit then i might consider a GCG rebuild and hiflow for $1900. I'm not really that keen on gettin a new dump made up and selling the BOS pipe as i know i will lose money and im not the richest kid on the block.

What do you guys reckon?

hks gt2530, hks gt2530 kai, hks gt-rs, hks 2835, apexi ax53b70 and some of the trust low end td05's i think should all match the stock dump flange. the highflow will also match. if you are looking at turbo change make sure you have fuel pump, injectors, airflow meter, ecu, clutch, fmic, cold air intake kit and some good tyres to get the best "benefit" from the turbo change. also consider lag vs response. hiflow shoud good best response. boost wont make power, airflow does so dont get a turbo and run 25psi just cos you can, get one that will give you good power at 1.3bar or thereabouts. check the "rb25 turbo upgrade" thread stickied at the top of forced induction. should have plently of info for you

    • Your claim of "same turbo, same boost, same timing" is why I commented on it. You can't change how the exhaust flows, not alter the ignition or fuel map, and instantly say one is worse than the other, as one is likely now out of tune to the other.   While turbo lag isnt great, it's also not the whole picture. Nor would I say the factory manifold is the best for fluid dynamics. That and most GOOD aftermarket manifolds additionally aren't aimed at stock/small sized turbos, nor do most of the companies building them have a Great idea on fluid dynamics, they just understand and build to the same basic principles. Those aftermarket manufacturers also don't have epically huge budgets to go doing shit tonnes of R&D to get the best performing manifold.
    • I've got a Nexus for one of my other cars and I was surprised how simple it is to use and seems like a good quality bit of gear. The tech support guys are good to chat with too.
    • My point is more so focused on the division between cylinders 1 to 3 vs 4 to 6. Any low mount "bolt on" aftermarket manifold utilises an open T3 collector which has crap all scavenging effects. Sure it might allow you to slap in more timing up top to make a little more but you'll lose all the down low performance. Even Tao from @hyper-gear has experienced the same when modifying the stock manifold. He has experienced added lag by cutting out the divider inside vs. leaving it alone. Twin scroll works, even if the effort is focused primarily on the manifold and an open scroll turbine housing. Please don't confuse me with a V8 NA or Americans that thinks you need back pressure in a 4 stroke motor.
    • I bought mine from Concept Z https://conceptzperformance.com/hks-stainless-steel-catback-exhaust-system-full-dual-muffler-infiniti-q60-coupe-17-cv37-awd-rwd-31014-kn001_p_32626.php Put it on myself. Very easy jack stands. But if i was going to do it again i would get something like this   https://conceptzperformance.com/nissan-infiniti-infiniti-sport-exhaust-kit-axle-back-exhaust-system-infiniti-q60-17-coupe-cv37-b0100-q60st_p_30289.php Or just straight pipe it the whole way. I drove the car without an exhaust for shits and giggle when i was swapping it and it's not very loud at all.
