Yeah mate tonight i was at my fiance's fathers house and on there property i hand timed a few runs, i got two runs on camera so yeah ill put them up on you tube.

The turbo is laggy like starts to make boost at 2500+rpm but after 50kays it just wheel spins, camera doesn't convey how the car performs.

At best i recon a mid to high 13 and worst a low 14, it is abit slow leaving the line then when i get 9-10psi it just wheel spins.

Im happy

Heres a little video of a 0-100kmh sprint, this will show you how laggy the turbo is.

Car is going realy well now, fuel economy has realy improved so much better than standard AND considering they are 24lb injectors.

Stock id see no better than 18lt/100kms.

Good to see it's running a lot better. Hows the heat under the bonnet, has anything started to show signs of melting??

Cheers

Well its been awhile, heat hasnt burnt a thing in the bay mate.
Car has been running really well for a backyard job, anyway i have been hand timing my car every now and then always adding a bit more stall...

Well i am happy to say ive gotten a 4.7seconds to 100... blimy its quick BUT not without its tricks, you need to get on the convertor really hard and sit for about 5 odd seconds then it leaves marks about 100 metres long before get traction THEN chirping the tyres sliding out again WHOA this is quick got to 150 in no time at all.

So im still not happy about its lag so the smaller housing is going on aswell as better tyres.

So theres the trick with an auto you have to sit on the convertor to get boost off the line.... but goddamn it hammers, cruises beautiful too lol.

Hey dude,

What are the spec's of ur turbo???

Im interested to see how the windsor responds to boost and rpms depending on size of turbo.

He has posted all about it on boosted mickeyyyy.

Turbo is a T04r built by gcg turbos.

Comp housing is .70 , comp wheel is a ceramic coated t66.

Exhaust housing was 1.00 but i changed it to a .70 as before full boost was around 4500rpm, now its at 3000rpm response is also alot better. Turbine wheel is a 76 p trim.

Turbine housing is t4.

Ive got my car running 6psi with 30* timing and it pulls really well now alot harder than 10psi with retarded timing.

Ill take some videos and post them on youtube real soon.

If i was to do it from scratch again id definitely use an xr6 turbocharger its perfect for a STOCK 5l.

Brad

So when does it start spooling with the smaller rear???

Ive recently got a twin turbo 4l eb,its only 2 r33 skyline turbos on it.With the 2 smaller turbos pretty well no lag but my auto has got a jim mock 3000 stally and its the best thing i reckon,the car is all go off the line with no lag and out on the highway the convertor locks up.I reckon your set up would love the stally...

phill

Around the 2000rpm mark, if i drive away from a set of lights with alittle bit of throttle it wont have boost but it pulls with revs around 2500rpm mark.

If you could get a t04e with 60 trim comp wheel and a ptrim exhaust wheel in a .70 ar that would go very hard but not much room to grow past about 250rwkw, it would suit a stock 5l very very well.

Brad

Hi mate yh id love a 3000rpm stally for it, i was actually contemplating get r33 turbos and going twins but i was told by everyone that there too small andthey would choke at 4000rpm.

So hows your setup mate do you find the turbos run out of puff?, and how much boost are you running?.

3000rpm stally mmmm

They run out about 5300 but its only running 7psi with 295rwhp at the moment.Going to run 10psi and get the microtech retuned and should be good for 325-340rwhp according to my old dyno sheets that come with it.Have a look in the garage for it to see pic on the set up...

I think a Airwerks S366sx 66mm comp wheel with .91 exhaust housing or S400sx 71mm comp wheel with .91 exhaust housing would work well depending on gearbox and diff setup.

Say if u had a C4 with 3.73 diff gears then id probably lean towards a S400sx but if u have about 3.5 diff gears id go the S366sx and this is for both getting it spooling before 3000rpm and pull to 5500rpm.

GCG stock both those turbo's and the complete Airwerks range

From my experience i wouldn't bother changing diff ratios as the stock 3.27 is perfect also manifold design is more important than a ratio change ( spool wise ).

Basicaly a gt3540r is the best turbo to suit 99% stock 4l and 5l motors no need for a big turbo unless your looking for very high hp figures ie dyno queens that only run 12s.

Yh bigger turbos 'work' but the wont be efficient.

Basicaly any t4 turbo that runs comp trim over 60 will be better off with a .70 t4 rear housing ( with p trim turbine ) just look at my 0-100 video spools for 90% of the run full boost at 4500rpm is very boring and not fun ( 1.00 rear ar ).

LOL dad got in my car today and said the power was just effortless only at 3psi (ebc is set in open loop mode) he loves it but thinks its irresponsible.

Im actually looking for a 57 trim t04e as i dont want to run heaps of boost, ill probably kill the poor thing lol.
