  1. i'll ask you a few questions


    why are you looking to get a bigger throttle body?



    what kind of mods do you have?



    what type of power are you running?



    reason being, the stock TB seems good for about 300/350bhp from what i've seen, no real need to go upgrading just for the sake of it.

  2. yeah, so many good results with emu/emb over the years. So many users with the emu/emb systems on their cars


    if there was anything amiss, someone would have said something by now





    PS - slightly derailing from this topic, the only thing i can recall which some ep91 owners complained about in the past (very long time ago) was SAFC fighting with the stock ecu after a period of time and reverting to "stock setting"....but i've no evidence on that topic


  3. Subaru seems a popular choice with a lot of kits from various makers available as well as in the classified section



    Mitsubishi also have a few variants, but maybe some custom work needed to use those



    it's not really a choice of which is better...it's more what you want from your car


    always build your car to make yourself happy


  4. Any tutorial for a ct9 rebuild? I've got my rebuild kit and I'm ready for my first DIY rebuilt,the reason why i don't go to specialist is because it's pretty expensive in cyprus to rebuilt a turbo and since i have you boys here a tutorial can make it easier,I've seen plenty of youtube tutorials but I'm a little bit concerned about the markings. what I have to mark? compressor wheel and shaft only? please help

    Thanks in advance

    that is the site we used a while back to rebuild an old ct9 hybrid

    we have no turbo repair shops on my island, so we took a chance doing it ourselves

    after the rebuild, the ct9 hybrid turbo worked for a very long time before it was eventually sold (still in working order)

    however, i understand what the others were saying to you, as it can be a bit of a risk

  5. Here is a video of me drag racing a 5E semi forged 260 bhp mapped TD04 glanza running 1.1 bar boost on rally slick tyres against me in my hybrid CT9 .95 bar boost, jam ECU on road tyres.

    Both have good clutch and LSD.

    Black Glanza is mine running the hybrid.

    what time did you do in the 1/4 mile?

  6. my emu launch controll is shit, but that could be down to other things, but (on the spot) i rev it up, it goes to around 3k then kills the engine, revs, then kills the engine and puts up eml.... not very good from what i have seen so far. not had it on the road to try it, but cant see it making any differnce

    have you read through that long tread on ttgt?

  7. Yes a stock 16g td05 will make more power then a stock vf35 it will also flow 1.8 bar vf 35 cannot do that. The bigger vf34 which I run probably doesnt make the same power either again people with subarus seem to upgrade to 16g td05s.

    somehow my own research differs. i see people swapping all over the place, but they tend to go vf35/34 or for the bigger (not stock) td05 upgrades (18g, 20g, hybrids)

    the oem td05 is very strong i'd agree and takes quite some abuse ---even antilag on a rally car i've seen..lol

    most of these turbos seem to top out at 320/350bhp on subarus with supporting mods

    however, i noticed the back end on the stock td05 is somewhat smaller than then vf35/34 which seems to affect the td05's top end in comparison to those 2 turbos

  8. the tdo4L from the subaru on a 5e gives a great power band for everyday usage...very responsive.


    you will need to get a proper tune for your set up (fuel and ignition)...so at minimum an emu, or go standalone



    the 5e flows pretty good for a small engine, so having too small and exhaust housing will be a restriction


  9. sometimes it really depends, new oem bolts may not be available, so the old ones are reused


    my preference is news bolts, but having reused old ones, i've never had any problems in the past




    also, we did some testing a long time ago...seems the final average is between 45 - 50 lb/ft when you install the oem head bolts as stated in the usual manner


    i'm not a fan of the 90 degree final turn as its a bit "iffy", that's why we found an average to work with
