jdm dave Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 well people i drove it when it was tdo6 and for road use it was way to laggy but the main reason the turbo is changed is cuz the tdo6 needed a recon and he hated the lag cuz he swaped his turbo typeR for the T.C. glanza witch had little to no lag! still gonna be the same power tho!!

CRAIG-SR Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Going to be the same power of what? the td04 or his old type r turbo? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 its just a glanza now mate. same as 1000 other ones. it isnt TC anymore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 if he wanted a sensible road car he shouldnt have bought a td06 v. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starlet__SR Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Rick didn't you state in the earlier stages of the project you hated the turbo and wished you'd gone down the TD04 route?????End of the day if he's making more use of the power, whats the problem? No point having all that lag because by the time you've hit boost, the other car will have leftDamien Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Russleh Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 if its same power it will be epic still but shame to loose the one of a kindness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jdm dave Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 true but the power band was rediculas first and second the boost didn't kick in fully so it wasn't that quick off the line. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 sorry 350whp out of a td04?? or have i missed somthing? i get the whole td04 for less lag but you wont get the same bhp from that as the td06 made mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Personally I think a TD06 is rediculous on a Starlet, far too big, and high power figures on Starlets are just "pub talk".But I can see where Rick is coming from, the time he spent on the car and hassle he had with it, if you read through this topic start to finish there's been a load of time and effort put into it and alot of hassle. And then someone goes and changes it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletRick Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 that was the point, it was a rediculous car. and dont put words in my mouth about regretting it. it wasnt easy to sort out, nobody had done it, remember? i had ALOT of issues getting it all working properly. but once it was done, i never looked back. at the end of the day, as a td04, it will never make the power it could have with the td06. it was running very low boost on the td06, as i wanted it for road use. but it made in excess of 350hp on the dyno at 1.6bar. that engine was built to run 2 bar. and it could have with that turbo, and it would have made over 400hp i recon. only thing holding it back was the headbolts, that are now available. what your mate should do, is map it to its full power. td04s are shit. every other starlet has one.

Dan Evans Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 i may put a 5E in mine with a ball bearing TD05, what sorta power could i expect from that dude?was it mostly custom made parts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
riko666 Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 the 18G can make upto 400ps, probably achievable on a 5E - one of the Cruise demo cars made 340ps at just 1.4bar on a 4E-FTE, yet alone a 5E Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Evans Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 oooooohhhhh goodie goodie lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
