hi there, would like to know about a XS-Power brand turbo i can get for cheap brand new from a friend. Before i buy it i'd like to know what type of HP it can support. Will it support 600+? He says it can

The info tag on the housing says...

PART# T4 Rotary
Serial # MZA050037
FC3S/FD3S

trim is 60 BTW,hope someone here can give me a answer before i plan to buy it.


Im concerned mainly with what amount of HP i can support with this size turbo.

No. Easy enough answer? Just save up and get a good turbo. MP has some nice turbo's that don't really cost that much at all. PM BobbyBeach on this forum. He's an MP dealer.

So...XS-power and Master Power are not the same turbo's? I always thought they were.

From what i hear XS-Power was buying there covers from master power and putting them on there turbines. From what i hear people have had good experiences with the real master power products.

BoostedRex

Real Master Power turbos are GREAT! I'm personally a fan of the GT series from HKS, but if you are not wanting to spend that kind of money then you will not be able to beat the quality of the MP line for the cost.

And BackyardSog is right about XS buying MP covers and using them on their shitty wheels.

So you're worried about a few hundred extra dollars on a turbo but think you'll make a car producing over 600hp?

So many people talk **** on the turbo's that have never owned them. I bought an ebay turbo (XS power), never had any problems with it. It was a great turbo.

RETed

Are you making 600hp?

Are you?

How is that relevent to a turbo charger reliability?

Im running that turbo in my car right now til i can afford the AF61.

Ill let you know how 10psi feels on it to me, next saturday when the injectors are goin in and the maps are loaded.

Ive only boosted it to 5psi right now since i still have stock maps on the powerfc

its a depends what your looking for. when do you want boost to come on and how much. in terms of reliability? how reliable are factory turbos? xs power turbo are a inexpesive alternative that will satisfy the needs the budgetminded enthusiast. im sure there are compromises. but you get what you pay for. the real question is can your motor handle 600hp and not if the turbo can push your motor to 600hp.

PhatManBUD

I think ill be lucky to break 300 rwhp. If i do ill be okay with that til january-february.

i also dont htink the motor would be to handle 600hp. not on that dinky **** turbo. u need a BIG single.

Just got my car tuned by groundzero in portland oregon yesterday. I bought the xspower rotary turbo and we tested it. Everyone was quite surprised by its performance, even ralph. The turbo pulls like crazy, I layed down approx. 300 hp @ 8 psi. My clutch is slipping a little but nonetheless pretty strong numbers. The best part is, I am going back in a couple weeks to get a tune for 14-18 psi (race gas) ralph is very confident it will easily eclipse the 400hp mark.
I realize this turbo is not a long term solution, so I am switching out the xspower turbo for more reliable garrett gt35r soon.
oh yeah, steer clear of the xspower/ssautochrome wastegates-- they are crap! I went with the vband clamp 44mm tial, huge difference.

RETed

You're the dumbass that stuck your nose in this thread ranting about reliability.

Go reread the original post - the original poster did ask if it could support 600...

So STFU if you're not making 600, cause it does not help one bit with you bitching about it.
A Garrett S-trim is perfectly reliable, but asking it to make 600hp will surely kill it, regardless of how reliable it is under normal operating conditions.

None of those XS turbos are big enough to support that much power (600+). Hell, a lot of very expensive turbos can barely make 600hp on a 13b. That doesn't mean XS turbos aren't great turbo's for the money.

Heisenberg

Doesnt mean they are either. Why would you even bother buying a xs power turbo that most people have had nothing but problems with, when you can get a good sized mpt61 or mpt70 from master power and put down some decent numbers. You can probably get more power from the stock twins than the xs turbo.

I own a xs style single manafold so im not on here just to bash the company. I am all for saving some money if the product works, but as far as the turbos i have heard nothing good to say about them.

sysiphus

You should reread the original post and subsequent posts. He mentions the 600hp in passing and adds a nice little smiley to show how serious he was. I know your are completely socially inept; it's obvious by your post count. At least try to be internet savvy.

We know you've never approached even 300hp on your rustybucket, let alone 600. I also doubt you have ever owned an xs power turbo. So why are oyu even posting in this thread RETed?

Go search your for your name some more Teddy, there's a lot of threads out there you've missed.

RETed

Wow, now you can read minds!
Funny, I don't see you blasting all the other guys who take the 600hp quote pretty literally.

So...since you can read minds...
Exactly WHAT hp level was the original poster thinking about seriously?
Don't know?
Darn, now you're wasting my time...


Ah, now it comes down to insulting my ride...
Hey, bring it on...you can't insult me directly, so you need to insult my ride.
Really, I don't care...my "rustybucket" has saved my *** from several very expensive tickets.
Really, I'd take getting out of tickets than having to appeal to your sense of beauty to think that a fast car has to look good.

Me own an XS Power turbo?
What the **** for.
I have three Garrett GT2871R's sitting in my room right now.
Total damage to my wallet was $3,500.
So tell my why the **** I want one of those things again?


Hey, I really don't need to see threads about you being some kinda weird cross-dresser.

So you didn't answer the question about making 600hp?
I assume this is a NO.
How much power did you put down, biatch?

Come on, I know you can do better.
I really want a serious effort from you before I reply to any of your crap in the future.

Wasting your time? You seem like you're the only person on here who's time is free. I have no clue what hp levels he was hopeing for. If I am remembering the measurments of that turbo correctly, the 600hp combined with the smiley is probably a joke.


I'm glad you're able to avoid trouble with the law. I'm glad you have 3 gt2871r's. Sounds like you are going to build 3 really nasty stihl chainsaws. Why aren't you throwing your .02 cents around in threads on those then?


Wearing womens underware does not make oyu a crossdresser Teddy.
My power levels would be irrelevant seeing as how I have 8 cylinders and boost.
This is as much effort as I can put in for now Teddy.
Please put more effort into slinging **** in the midwest sections.

LUPE

I am, are you?

PhatManBUD

ouch...hahaha


im not having any problems with my xs-power one. Other then it looks so small(Thus, killing my boner). And im pretty sure i wont stand up to HP i want 450+. with a smaller exhaust housing, It would be a good turbo on somethign like a 240sx.

BoostedRex

Wow, did this ever become a flame war!! Glad I didn't start anything this time.

kenn_chan

Boosted, it is rather intersting that neither you nor I had anything to do with this one.

edit: but then i haven't been here much recently either ..snicker..
