thanks adamb...so is the much talked about 10-15% extra flow between the gt vs gtx true/false? i checked the ukstarlet leader board and realised socks, ryan-11 and rob ebbs did quite well with gtx2863r and gt2860rs models, even better than some gtx/gt30., ...i'd like to compare the graphs, but all different dynos and possibly different set ups and boost.....so the end result would not be as realistic as i'd like what's the difference between super unleaded and pump unleaded over there?

not sure i'm following you sasha, are you saying its spools faster or slower than the vf series?

hey colin, thanks for the reply i can assure you that the above boost pressures can be safely ran and have been safely ran for a while now on a few cars here... maybe i should have added that tuning will be done to accommodate these turbos....though i kind of figured it was a given at the boost pressures mentioned....however, we should never make such bold assumption lol so to add to my earlier post...the cars/engines will be tuned accordingly ...fuel and ignition bigger injectors, piggyback/standalone, fuel pump upgrade, oem/aftermarket fpr also, for the sake of discussi

been having a discussion with some friends on this topic yet again...somehow it always seems to pop up assuming a stock 5efte/5efhte engine (cams, pistons/rings, head, headgasket, 50mm TB, rev limit 7200rpm, etc) with stock compression 9.0-9.6 range....looking to run 14 - 18 psi daily on pump gas (95 - 98 ron) and the odd 20 - 25psi on race gas given all the massive moves in technology over the years, which of these turbos would be ideal for making about 300whp, along with the very best daily drivability, earliest spool, best spool on gear changes, etc subaru td05, subaru td05 b

i've seen a k20 in an ep shell...a track car...it goes very well and lots of bolt on upgrades available for the honda, at somewhat reasonable prices

the 4age 16/20 valve transplant into the ep chassis has been very popular over the years...and i think stock its about 150/160bhp it seems to be one of the "easier" conversions to undertake i know its very popular for rally cars too

as far as i know they are the same unit

i suspect so stu....cause they seem to be very similar items if not the exact same

as stu said...just put it on, the fpr is charged with the job of maintaining fuel pressure does the rail come with an aftermarket fpr?...if so you could always double check fp with the gauge it probably came with but the jam ecu like stock fp, so it would be fine with the stock unit as well

lol...just beware of knocks on the door from the tax authority

n/a power is difficult to attain without spending a lot of money in general...especially on a 4e/5e i investigated this alternative about a decade ago and here is what i came up with...similar to sudden's list 5e block, 4efe pistons (the higher crown ones), trd metal headgasket or 5e headgasket (0.6mm), 5efhe rods, 5efhe cams, 5efhe ACIS manifold, emanage, 5efhe 4-2-1 exhaust manifold set up (no cat), 2" exhaust piping, good quality pump gas or race gas, light weight flywheel, levin gearbox (4.3 final drive) or trd gear set (expensive and maybe discontinued now), rev to 7200rpm, no power

ok cool apply fertilizer, water twice daily and have a little chat with it on evenings...keep in a sunny area...you should see results

also, even if you did manage the manifold change over... the low compression engine would make the car very "slow" and i'm not certain how it may affect emissions, etc....would be best to tell the new owner what you have done before he/she buys it....i'm not sure how your laws are over there, but a disgruntled buyer could land you in court if the purchased product is not what was reasonably expected from the transaction food for thought

what color is the fluid in the master cylinder reservoir?...could be a problem from this unit not building any pressure due to worn seals/rubbers or cylinder ware

i can't say with any certainty...but it seems that they are the exact same unit you could always try to cross reference the parts numbers on maybe toyodiy.com if you could find a levin/mr-s chassis to use---a model fitted with lsd as stock

why fte pistons?...wouldn't it be a better n/a engine if you used the 4efe or 5efhe pistons to raise the compression?

could you post a pic?

oh,,,also remember not to overtighten the manifold studs...i suspect that is part of what causes the problem in the first place

thanks for the clarity 5e colin and walker96

thanks

whats the treadwear?

just a question,,,would there be a noticeable difference in weight between the 4efe oem/smaller flywheel vs the 4efte larger lightweight flywheel?

have you checked to see if the wire is connected properly to the sensor?...corrosion?..it may be that simple

http://www.toyotagtturbo.com/forums/showthread.php?63889-EP85-CCM-spec-engine-VF35-EMU that's about as good as it gets with a vf35 on a 4e as adamb indicated, its better suited for a 5e it will be laggier than a td04l on the same 4e...maybe 500/1000rpm laggier depending see this tread, near the bottom for the 5e dyno http://www.ukstarletowners.com/topic/98589-5e-turbo-advise/
