sean GTturbo Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 well lads.. havnt updated this in ages... well spose that could be because i tried to lose interest for a bit but anyway... collected this earlier in the week 5efe now to start saving for a forged rebuild.. collected a few small bits here and there, sard fpr, greddy type S bov and a few bits what turbo should i run? anything but TD series just because everyone over here is running td04s and td05s so would rather run my ct20 or ct26 but debating going VF Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ive just gone through this, took me a year, it will be worth it in the end ;) full 5e build? i'm in no rush building it just want it to be right this time fed up of hearing bottom ends rattlin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sean GTturbo Posted April 22, 2014 Author Share Posted April 22, 2014 Good to see someone going with the alternative turbo setup. Love the classic sard style wastegate cheers yeaah all i hear about is td04 so i want to go CT series instead.. TD is ment to be more reliable and i've heard CT20's are brilliant paper weights from bearings and seals going in them so thinking about CT26 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Starlet Wayne Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 (edited) I had a forged GT turbo on a CT20 was running 260 at 1. Bar was quicker than my friends td04 glanza. Edited April 24, 2014 by Starlet Wayne Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sean GTturbo Posted May 4, 2014 Author Share Posted May 4, 2014 I had a forged GT turbo on a CT20 was running 260 at 1. Bar was quicker than my friends td04 glanza. good bit of lag in the ct20 but a serious pull around 3krpm onwards.. i had a black 95 ct20 gt boosting .8 on a standard 4efte with 5efhe cams was as quick as if not quicker than my mates fully forged 4efte glanza boosting a bar on blitz hybrid ct9.. the glanza had blitz everything, fmic, ecu, boost contoller, boost guage, air filter, exhaust, decat, hybrid turbo, walbro pump bigger injectors, hks fuel rail braided lines, the lot, and the gt had a wepr ct20 kit, a fmic and a straight though and that was about it really Quote Link to post Share on other sites
