jellybaby Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 Don't think u was going quick enough Quote
Amjad Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 Sounds crazy! Are you still looking to downsize turbo setup? Quote
Bussey Posted September 29, 2015 Author Posted September 29, 2015 Sounds crazy! Are you still looking to downsize turbo setup?To be honest mate I haven't got a clue haha, some times I love it some times I hate it, getting pretty used to it now anyway, For the more twisty stuff I wind it down to 1 bar anyway it's a lot quicker when you can actually use second gear haha.

_shaun_ Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 if your still running the eo-1 ebc ive still got the remote switching system sitting so you can run 1 bar round the twistys and hammer the button on the steering wheel for full boost down the straights Quote

Inbox coming your way! Quote
Amjad Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 It goes really well but from videos (and I might be wrong here) it seems like you aren't left with a very broad powerband? Is there another turbo that would spool quicker but give ~300bhp? I think I'd rather take a hit on peak power for a broader range of power Quote
Socks Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 Ideally Bussey needs a GTX2860. Ball Bearing on this for that Amjad... I have seen alot worse powerbands tho. Just have to adjust your driving style to suit the powerband! Quote

Just have to adjust your driving style to suit the powerband! yeah power band seems grand, im using a 2860 with the tial ar 63. housing same as this and its a great drive,though we are only running low boost at the minute plus a few other major restrictions, should be good when sorted.

Phil The GTX2860 in dual ball bearing format. Will give TD04 like spool yet is capable of being pushed to 400bhp! ;) Quote

AdamB Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) The GTX2860 in dual ball bearing format. Will give TD04 like spool yet is capable of being pushed to 400bhp! ;) All Garrett GT series turbo's are dual ball bearing, at least from GT25 upwards. Have to remember that it's the air pump infront of the turbo that drives it, just because and engine is forged doesn't mean it's going to be suited to every turbo on the market. Nice to see some vids of this thing at last anyway pal! Edited September 30, 2015 by AdamB Quote

I think I'd rather take a hit on peak power for a broader range of powerI have about 2600 to play with mate, to be honest it's not as bad as it sounds, after me getting used to it she is still very drivable you just have you use the gears a bit more.Rev limit could be moved up to like 8200 with no problems what so ever, but the guy who mapped it (barnaby from redline) adviced against it as he has lots of bad experience with high revving 4e's.I'm more than happy though, could throw a smaller exhaust housing on bit im not that fussed Quote

RobSR Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 4es are fine to 9k if you have the right rod bolts and springs.What's he had issues with? Quote
