Nice!! That is a very pricey turbokit

 

^ You get what you pay for.

 

Hardly, if you price out a custom tubular divided mani, custom downpipe and tial gate alone, you're looking at over $1600. Lines another couple hundred, a custom-spec'ed turbo $1000 easily, and some heat shielding another hundred, this starts to look pretty appealing. Plus you know it's reputable, on a proven application.

Plus it's A-spec. Come on!

 

Sorry guys I dont know why I wrote like that. I mean that`s a praiceworthy turbokit.

Next time I read one more time before I hit Reply :P

 

I have just gotten back to my car and fitting the kit to my car. A few things that I have come accros.

1. the mounting sureface for the turbo to the manifold the holes are not a 100% lining up. I have to open up the holes to have the turbo slie on the manifold.

2. Trying to install manifold to block in car it looks like I have to remove the studs from the block to get the manifold in place.

 

so whats the bottom line price gonna be to have this turbo installed and running? not including tune of course.

 

Call a-spec. Or if you will have another shop install th kit you will need to call them and find out labor coast.

 

I have had the issue with the holes on the turbine castings not always being proper. It isn't a common thing but every so often it's off a bit. The T4 1.06 castings for the 35R have a issue with not being able to get a nut on them. I have to actually grind out room on every T4 1.06 housing because for some reason they didn't account for it in the casting.

Yes long runner manifolds require stud removal if the engine is in the engine bay.

 

Sean,

Sent you a pm...

Charlie

 

I thought I answered that no?

 

Negative. Have nothing in my pm box.

Charlie

 

I got ya. I sometimes read them and then forget to respond sorry.

 

Has anyone truly pushed this thing to the limit yet to see what it will do?

 

Sean, I've send an email (shipment to Belgium). Did you get it?

 

+1 On pushing the turbo..

I'm interestes in turbo only..

 

No sir, I just looked and I can't find it, please send again, thanks

 

Has there been any real dyno results on this thing yet.

Someone update with some real world results.

Spool, transient lag, power at 1bar (15psi) etc.

 

Not sure what your meaning by "real" dyno results and info??? I have another dyno here on a stock port FD boost was 14lbs range.

 

what injectors were ran and what was the fuel pressure on this? also was this with short or long runner manifold?

Would like to know because I will be running a stock engine with 750cc and 1600cc injectors and looking to boost around 18 psi.

 

I'll check and see if I can dig up the info. Pretty sure it's a short runner manifold as he had a SMIC and a long runner wont work with that.

 

Is there anny Winterspecialprice in here?? Sean so please sent me an PM...
Now this Year i must have one....

 

The dyno above had the following mods on a stock port engine:

Long runner GT3574 kit
450R fuel system(1680 sec.)
Full 3" exhaust w/no cat
XS Power SMIC (IAT's were getting quite high)
L/T 9's
Boost set at 15 lbs.

 

Sean thanks again.. Just got mine installed From IRP.....

Its not tuned yet...But even with the way it is now, Its hard to keep it out of Boost in low RPM!!!! LOL

 

dosen't tell me what I want to know.

I want a dyno map with Power VS. RPM not Power VS. Speed (especially MPH because I have no idea what that is ?)


when are you seeing 1 bar at?

 

Have you looked at the post I made a few pages back. OK its a UK dyno so is showing a bit lower than a US dyno but doesn't it give you the info you need ??
