I'm close to buying a single turbo set up for my FD, but I can't decide which one to get, they are all around the same price. I'm looking for 400-450 rwhp. I have a all new engine from mazda with new seals and a street port. I'm planing on auto-xing alot with some road track days, and some drag racing, I would like to get in the high 11's(i have M/T street slicks, I was able to get 12.8@113 with my stock trubos). Just like to know what some people think is the best for that..... T04E, T04S or the APexi RX6???

Thanks for the help,
rich.

 

OK, I'll open my big mouth here to get the ball rolling... I'm sure that some people with more experience will chime in to tell me that I'm wrong.

You say you'd like the following:

1 - 400-450 rwhp
2 - Autocrossing
3 - Some drag with high 11.xx times

I think that any of the turbos you mention will meet #1 and #3 just depending on boost/other mods/whatever.

The T04E or Apex should be better than the T04S at autocross... but the T04S would be better for drag. I'm not 100% sure... but I think that the T04E or Apex might be your best choices since they'll have less lag than the T04S and also I think they can meet your other goals (albiet at a higher boost pressure than with the T04S).

Regards,
Brian

 

I think I will go for the apex, thanks for your help.

 

Thats pretty spot on

 

Instead of crossposting why don't you look at your other responses.

hheeeheee, thanks, I thought I would spread the word since I'm going to be forking over 3000 dollars tomorrow.

 

Trust me when I say this you can't go wrong with this(RX6) setup

 

for the street the RX-6 is tought to beat

 

I'll second that response! ....heh but I'm a little bit biased.

Poweraxel: Will you list all the kits you have tried ... I am curious.

 

i've has a couple of 3rd gens stylin single turbo setups
1. Ive has 2 greddy T-78 setups
2. HKS T51R-KAI
3. APEXi RX-6
4. Custom T04S setup

i like trying different setups...
people who know me personally, think im crazy

 

No just silly

 

I think you forget all the other stuff you ahve tried on your car. The "NEVER ENDING" list. It will be so long you have to read it for hours.

 

I don't think there is a FD out there that doesn't have a part of his on it somewhere.

 

wow, if poweraxel has tried all those setups, I'm sold on the apex idea.

rich.

 

He tried that and more.

 

Kenny,
your next on the single turbo list

Steve

 

Maybe I will go with the M2 twins.

 

I have purchased the turbo kit I will post what my performance result are after it's installed!

rich.

 

where did you buy it from? how much did it cost in can$?

i wonder what is the best move for a canadian...

 

I found it on "thepartstrader.com" and it cost 2800 US. I'm having it shipped to seattle and I'm going to drive down to pick it up. I was going to buy from a apex dealer here in Vancouver but it would have cost me $7000 with taxes!!!!!!!! ouch, some times it's nice to be american, just to same lots of money on turbo's.

 

What are the pluses and minus's of the RX-6 and the T04s setup's you had? How much power were you putting down on each?

thanks!

Bryan

 

Get a real turbo and stop playin! KKK (stage 2)!!!
