[MaLicE]

not confirmed yet, but already got it booked in for a rebuild lol and single turbo is about to be ordered... deciding weather to get a turbo that will allow me to run 400-450bhp at the wheels at low boost... and 500-550 at high boost... or 450-500 at low and 600+ at high... oh and going bridge port too BRAP BRAP BRAP BRAP BRAP!

 

[Nafoff]

[bomber]

do you really need 600+ bhp in actual reality, you manage to hit bus shelters in an SX let alone rex!!!!

how the f**k did you know that lol!

think i will go with the smaller turbo tbh, got 60mm external wastegate going on it too with screamer pipe... gotta order injectors, rail, fpr, hose for oil lines, gonna be running without the OMP.... and running premix instead also gotta order full set of seals, springs, oil rings a full rebuild kit basically...

well i will do tomorrow when i know what the compression results are... then will go from there

 

[theduck]

Gonna be a beast

 

[sussex_gti]

I thought i'd got Jdm out of my system, but after seeing this thread, i'm not so sure anymore. Got close to browsing Pistonheads for Ek Civics, but managed to resist. Damn whoever made this thread.

What turbo are you going for? Did you get your compression checked?

I am currently thinking about changing my GT3582 for something bigger this summer, about 500-550bhp would be ideal!

Fingers crossed its an easy fix!

Whats wrong with garrett, they are the most popular choice:dapprove:

 

[MaLicE]

cos i can run a better specced turbo, that will flow a s**t load better, for 1/4 the price of a garret.... and they are a s**t load stronger than a garret also... will post pics in a week or 2 when its in my hands lol!

 

[vts_saxo]

Fair enough, I notice loads of the yanks are using precision turbo's etc now.

Who is doing your rebuild?
