Twin turbo upgrade

[John Yorke]

drool, any hint on a price John for us dreamers?

Would rather prove the numbers first:InLove I am running her in atm hoping to have her fully mapped next weekend not quite to sure on price yet depends on interest I supose - as you said before its a buyers market.

[ScuttleRX]

Could be interested... Money is a huge variable at the moment though due to house moves and what not, but if its still about and it turns out im up a few pennies might give that some thought

The idea of doing a full re-build myself is a bit daunting, but an engine swap is more do-able, and would give me a chance to spray the engine bay as a re-spray is the other thing im planning.

Oh just re-read your post John, is it the engine your going to be selling or the whole car?

[prince_of_tokyo]

how about if you were to get 2 big turbos (single type turbos) and have them kick in together like a gtr???is it possible on a fd3???

This is what you want for best value.

they won\'t hang around for long though

RHD are a top seller too

[ScuttleRX]

Blimey not a bad price.

If you were thinking about getting them new (for about $2800 I think they go for) ive heard the gain is very minimal so not worth it, still have 270 degree bearings so cant up the boost any more than normal ones. Although you do gain a bit of efficency from the better design.

But at that price would be worth a punt especially if someone twins are getting a bit tired.

Oh and can vouch for RHD, brought some stuff off them a while back and it arrived in good nick and good time

I have heard of someone putting a HKS twin turbo set up on their FD.... he\'s down the south coast somwhere, a mate bought a GT4 Rad off him last summer!! Suposed to have made a big difference in the power?!!

You would have to factor in the rest of the turbo pack unless you re-used your own, and would that include post and duty?

Scuttle: Would be just the engine, need the funds to build my new engine project.

[ScuttleRX]

dont think it includes post but as there used I didnt have to pay any duty, dont know if thats still the way it works been a while since i brought anything abroad.

Sounds good John i\'ll keep an eye open for that and a kidney on ice, would you be after a core in part ex for your new engine project (assuming your not adding rotors, or getting involved with them horrible piston things )

[John Yorke]

Perish the thought... pistons augh:) [shiver] not realy after a core........ I have something quite special to build.:eek  
Will post up the results when I have completed the run in and mapping

Gone already.

RHD are cool in that they will happily lower the value of stuff for customs, so you don\'t have to pay the duty !
