  7. anyone reckon a T3 will be of use? i'mtryin tofind a gt30/35 but all i get are cheap ones from usa..... any ideas where to get areliable turbo?
  8. the only reason ive gone t28 is because i want it to spool up quicker.... not wanting top end but acceleration is key round here
  9. i was gonna get the t4 sprayed in thatcolor - but the t4 is a daily. no point havin nice paint job on a dailys IMO anyway
  10. not yet, im not going to buy a complete kit,as ill buy bits n bobs here n there, i hav a T28 off a skyline, and my FMIC set up. so i would of thought its straight (ish) forward from here on in...

  14. hmmmm tempting mate but I have this little box of tricks including a nice shiny new 9-10psi pulley (l) mmmmm 300bhp charged mk3 cabriolet oh go on then ! this is getting better n better your going charged.... i'm going boosted
  15. thanks dude, allit was -i just wanted toknow the best turbo to use, as round here we dont get alot of top end action - im more of an acceleration man to be honest. so i'd like the acceleration to be on the money. so i was thinking nsmaller turbo quicker spool up.... tghus equaling quicker acceleration.
  16. done the search. found nothing but general crap, same as every other search funtion on any other forum.
  17. hey guys, kinda thinking ahead a bit so i can start to get someplanning done etc... now, i dont wanna go everyone route of superchargin the vr, i wanna be slightly different n go for a turbo charger.... so my questyion is, whats the best to use, as the VR does hit full power till 4/4.5k whould it be best to have anturbo that spools up around the 3.5/4k mark to get the extra power out of it thus, making it safe on the internals and gettin thatfukll power earlier?? somy plan of thinking is smaller turbo = quicker spool up so like a garrett T28? anyone shed on any light on whats the best turbo t
  18. may just try and do something witht the mk4 front.... even tho i hate it grrrrrrrrrrrr
