3040 bigger then 3037 right?

yeah i fink i should strengthen my box though

coz like i dun want it blowing when i start gettin up to the power output i want:)

so roughly i am after 300-400hp

do i really need to get a trust plenum for that sought of power?

adrian

Adrian,

No you don't need a Trust plenum for that, but it makes it easier to get that power. 3037 is HKS variant, they make minor adjustments to trims etc, over the garret unit. Both are around 550-600hp.

The box should be fine, how were you going to strengthen it?

See'ya:burnout:

what i meant

by strenghtening

was geta stronger box

u know like them aftermarket shifters?

but then i would rather spend the money on getting a manual conversion done ahh well auto will do for now, ah so ur using a garrett turbo smae specs as hks turbo?

but cheaper am i right?

so ur saying to build up revs in a auto, have the car in drive, and keep foot firmly on brake while reving then let gooff brake when it's time to roll?

adrian

Bully,

Seeing as your up, and I don't trust Adrian's opinion, can i ask you a serious question?

With these SAU shirts, would you like for us to organise one of each to be made so that all those interested could see what they are getting before they buy? I was thinking about one mans(L) and one womans(M), it would give people a better idea about sizes aswell.

See'ya:burnout:

Adrian, Yeah that's the best way to launch an auto.

Garret sell HKS some of there turbo's, which are only sold by HKS, therefore you cannot get a Garret turbo which has the same specs as the HKS one. But seeing as the HKS one is over $1000 more then I don't see where the real benefit is, I'd rather go for the Garret one which produces similar power.

See'ya:burnout:

troo troo good point

yeah i read bout garret providing hks turbos

and it also said who the other jap houses

got their turbos from :)

okay so the trust or subzero plenum is goin to be a 11th hour decision for me as well ;) argh i hate decisions

adrian :)

    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
