i wish this was available last week have a mate selling a very large turbo from his single T 2j. would be perfect haha. why not get a super charger kit for the NA blokes, im yet to fiddle with mine.. SC14 + NA + 8psi @ 1500RPM = win?
You are using the entire DET exhaust setup by the sound of it. Unless someone has that setup two new manifolds plus a X over pipe would be required. So not so easy.
Sounds like a good suggestion dude. Rip out the AC and place the SC14 where that was. Would get great throttle response and having the high compresison ratio would net big gains from a measly 8psi too. Plus NA diff gearing. Win. Don't give me ideas mate, ideas cost lost of money!! Lol. PS: All the best on the TT build!
ahhh appearently not, chrispy doesnt think it'll work. but im going to have a hell of a time trying to get it to haha. yeah exactly, mad responce, great gears and diff ratio. has win all over it !! LOL tell me about it if it wasnt for my ideas, i wouldnt have the TT in the shed and thanks alot, i think im going to need it bud
Joe Grannas from the states ( as you all know ) in his red convertible did this with a clean and tidy install...pics are littered all over the web of the motor and videos of the car in action on the streets...I believe this car is a full blown drag car now so the engine setup may have changed...but this car pulled 544rwhp by memory and beat other zeds with the biggest JWT turbos. I believe this setup would be great for a dyno queen but for the streets it looks horible! I have a video of Joe doing a burnout, sitting on the brake in 1st and when changing to 2nd there was just too much lag and it bogged down. Boost hit at about 5 grand. It FLYs down a highway but in a controlled quarted mile drag any Z with a nicely tuned twin turbo setup would be a easily a few car lengths down the track before the Single would pickup and mumbo! This Z would have to been as quick as a stock Z until about 100-120kph according to his incar videos...but after that it flys.
Thats the thing... we take for granted what we have in terms of a responsive turbo car. V6 3ltr torque with twin turbos is a good combo, upgrading those turbos is better than one big single. Thats for the street anyway. Id much rather have nearly 4000rpm of 300-350 rwkw, than 2000rpm of 400+rwkw. On a drag strip chasing seconds, different story. But a freeway on-ramp squirt or a twisty run or your odd wrx/skyline/m3/xr6t bashing on the street... Thats how i look at it anyway.
