Alright, I've got a ct20 turbo and a tongs gt spec ct9 hybrid Both turbos need rebuilt but im only wanting to rebuild one of them because of the cost so im wondering which one would be best to get rebuilt? Obviously the ct9 will be less laggy but the ct20 will give more top end power so im stuck for choice lol Which one should i go for?

That will be great if you could have a word with him for me, hes not responding to any of my calls or texts, just ignoring me now that hes got the money. I hate seeing people getting ripped off and its even worse when it happens to yourself, people shouldent get away with it. Its not as if its just a couple of quid either, its a few hundred quid.

Recently bought a tongs turbo off this guy supposidly in 'good working condition' but when i adventually recieved it there was more shaft play than any other turbo I've ever seen, the compressor blades were touching the inlet trumpet! Also could see signs of oil inside the exhaust housing but he had obviously gave it a good clean. Anyway i put it on the car to see what it was like and as soon as i started it up there was just a huge constent cloud of smoke Now the guy wont answer my calls or texts so he has ripped me off! I recomend anyone to avoid this guy. Heres the link when i got the tur

Little update. Got my front mount air filter on now, Hks mushroom:P Can get this kit for anyone for £80 -
Alright mate, youv got the exact same problem as what i had! Your getting boost creep from the front mount air filter and gutted cat. I was running a front mount air filter, gutted cat, hks actuator. I only got the problem solved at the weekend there, i had to port my weastegate out and what a difference it made! Im now running 11 psi and not hit fuel cut since You need to port your wastegate or go external wastegate, or I've got a spare turbo sitting here which has already been ported which you could buy if you liked.

high pitch noise from turbo ????
neilsmith replied to 200bhp starlet's topic in 4E-FTE Engine Discussions
Alright mate, sounds like a chipped blade or the turbo bearing. If you find out your turbo is fu**ed then I've got one for sale just let me know Cheers -
Its got a rx7 intercooler, autobahn decat, front mount air filter, hi boost/lo boost has been bypassed and its got a cobra sport exhaust. Thats all the mods, it was running fine at 13 psi with the standard actuator, im going to put the standard actuator back on and see how it runs. I picked up anbother turbo last night so im going to port the wastegate on that then swap them over.
-
Am not sure how the standard was boosting lower, totaly puzzled. I've not got supporting mods to run anything over 13 psi, thats why im trying to get the boost down. Im going to port the wastegate and see what happens
-
Anyone else? Someone suggested to me that the wastegate needs ported. Anyone got any info n this and any instructions? Cheers
-
I've tryed bothe ways, is screwing it out the right way? Anticlockwise? Cheers
-
I fitted a hks actuator to my starlet on sunday and no matter how much i adjust it, it just keeps hitting fuel cut and is running 14 psi. With the standard actuator it was running 13 psi. No matter how much i adjust the hks actuator, its still running 14psi and is hitting fuel cut. Someone please help me Thanks.
