I'm looking into a bigger turbo soon, and might be interested, but am just a little confused?
You say Stu's R made 420bhp @ around 1.7-1.8bar on this turbo, but Thunder Gods made 399.7bhp @ 1.4bar??? So how much boost would you need to make 450bhp??

I think in reality stu was probably running a bit less boost than that as well.

Which would involve?ashills said:
Will the standard manifold need spaccing out?
Will the exhaust need modifying or will the turbo mount us as standard?
And how soon are they available?
Thanx, Ben

Everything will be the same apart from the oil return pipe which will need a very minor mod to make it work properly, The oil and water feed pipes will fit the same as the standard turbo as will the exhaust ;-) ......R called Jay said:
You will also need to fit a new inlet pipe and the intercooler pipe will need modding as well, But its all very easy stuff to sort out, Even for a numpty :lol: .

yep as rob said aboveThunder God said:
avaliablity is soon as we see what the interest is, we can start taking payments and get the turbos ordered i will contact them and check what sort of numbers they have in stock but usually have a load ready to be assembled
if u desperately need one we can order yours straight away
better mention that one hole on exhaust 5 bolt flange will need filing to fit but all new turbos need that even t28 replacements

It took me a couple of hours of fiddling about to make mine fit ok, You just need a good quality file (little round one) and drill bits really, All you need to do is elongate the oil return pipes bolt holes as well as one of the holes in the elbow's five bolt flange.....Andrew said:
You will need to make up a new inlet pipe, So you will need a 2.75" samco hose that reduces or matches you inlet pipe work, And if you have a hybrid cooler kit then you need to cut it off where it starts getting smaller on the bit that bolts to the standard turbo, Then you will need a 2" to 2.5" samco reducer and probably another short length of 2.5" pipe and another 2.5" samco coupler......
Or if you can weld you can just weld on another bit of alloy pipe to your hybrid pipe work, That way you will just need the 2" to 2.5" samco reducer......
hope that all makes sense

Cheers Rob now just waiting for the sellers to get back to me
fitting in a day could be a little difficult as would need to order the right samco's to suit your intercoler etc but if u can see what sizes we would need they could be sorted in advance so should all be sorted in a day
ill ask ed tomorrow about what he would charge labour wise i would think around the £100 mark plus the samco's etc needed
flexible oil and water feeds are a nice to have extra when fitting these aswell
cheers allen
