I wasn't ever too sure about the green foggies since there's nothing else green on my car, but it's unique for the moment. So I'll be sticking with the mixed up theme for now.

But now I've done the 1/4 mile and Wakefield, it might be time to lose the stock vf46 turbo for something decent :) suggestions???


You know my vote....Tomei ARMS M7960 8)

Oh and E85.... :assassin:

Gtx3076 will be good for your setup

I second what others have said - great setup, immaculately presented and good driving stu

Shut the phuck up phaggot it looks and sounds better. Plus he didn't say he was looking for a mental set-up, the Tomei is a good improvement on what he already has...and last time I checked the prices have come down to around $1,700

I have an idea...... :P

gtx3071r at 280-290kw is pretty much out of breathing space....unless you put a bigger rear housing for bit more top end...

Blouch 1.5 dom XTR is also a consideration....

in the end its where you want your power band to be? and what the car will be used for majority of the time....my 2 cents :)

Kando dynamics td05 18g is about $1000 cheaper and will spool better

Without spamming stu's thread, i feel obligated to point out that you're mixing those two things up again - ambition and capability

But once again, another example of why Good Country Australia, where even flamboyant ignoramuses like you are entitled to an opinion....

You guys are hilarious!! :) Turbo choices always create sooooo many arguments, and at the moment I'm happy to hear them all.

My car is not daily driven, it comes out on sunny Fridays, and weekends. It's not stuck in traffic very often, and needs to be respectable on the circuit AND the strip. I don't want a built motor since she's only 36000kms old (yes low!) so was thinking along the lines of a Gt28...

Let the arguments start again :)

My ambition and capability both outstrip yours 2 to 1. My english; 3 to 1.

Anyway Stu a good idea is to sit passenger (or driver if you are fortunate enough) in other 2.5 GT-Bs with different turbo set-ups to see which you prefer :)

Stu

A Garage 88 GT3071r with right supporting mods (FMIC, injectors, fuel pump) etc have gotten good results on unopened engines still on 98 too.

Yeah was thinking a GT30 might lead to a full rebuild with forgies sooner rather than later compared to the GT28. But I have still been staring at this http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mv ... y_Code=BCS :air_kiss:

Already got the bigger Aeromotive fuel pump installed, and thinking of ID 1000s to match the turbo. Can't really go E85 since there's only two places in the ACT that sell it.

Are you specifically looking for an internal wastegate solution?
