Nub 2J + Single Turbo Question

[Deus Ex]

mines ecu cope with such changes?

Yes

So... ETA to DueforsEx vs Rustay single turbo thupra showdown?

Are you kidding!? have you seen the size of his turbo? Im pretty sure the thing has its own fucking orbit.

[Gammaboy]

Meh. A Single turbo'd Supra is a Single turbo'd Supra.

I bought one of those ebay manifolds linked in this thread for my 2J a while ago, it required a shitload of cleaning up to get to a useable state.

There were massive weld dags deep down inside the runners, had to get right in there with a screwdriver to knock them loose (pieces about 5mm in diameter).
The flange put the GT35 cover pointing straight into the water neck off the head. I milled out a new T3 flange, cut off the original and welded the new one on at a better angle and then ported the flange to suit the "collector".

The hole for the wastegate port to the collector was much smaller than the actual wastegate tube welded to the side of the manifold. I die-ground that out so it matched.

Six of the head flange holes had to be milled in a certain direction so it would actually go over the studs and bolt to the head.

You need to cut one of the studs down a lot shorter than usual and use a shortened nut too, I bashed the runner a bit for that one to give a bit more spanner clearance.

The 4-bolt wastegate flange was horrid, the PCD of the bolt holes was all wrong compared to the shape of the flange, I cut that off as I had a 44mm Tial for it anyway.

I didn't really like the manifold in the end so I got Kyle to make me a new one with the flange in the positions I'd setup.

couple of pics of the ebay one with the flange modded:



And my new 6boost manifold, even with stock studs! :p

[Deus Ex]

but 6 boost is expensive

But also dont want to go through that crap with the Ebay manifold, screw that.

Fucking SIGH, its just never easy...

[Deus Ex]

So these are my very rough figures. As a very very stingy person...i know which one is more attractive right now

Turbo
$1,600.00 GT35 Garret
Oil Feed
$185.00 Proboost
Manifold
$1,300.00 6Boost
IC
$1,000.00
Wastegate
$179.00 JJR 38mm
Waterlines
$150.00
Dyno
$300.00
Tow
$100.00

=$4,814.00


Turbo
$865.00 TO4Z Proboost
Oil Feed
$185.00 Proboost
Manifold
$350.00 ProBoost
IC
$1,000.00
Wastegate
$179.00 JJR 38mm
Waterlines
$150.00
Dyno
$300.00
Tow
$100.00

=$3,129.00

Why 1000 buck intercooler?

[Deus Ex]

Why 1000 buck intercooler?

seems the average price. if i set an average price, im not surprised if its slightly more or slightly less.

[ALLMTR]

My version would be

$1000 second hand XR6 turbo
$300 ebay manifold (2hrs cleaning it up)
$249 ebay 600 x 300
$100 oil feed
$179 JJR wastegate
$140 water lines
$300 for piping
Dunno about dyno cost and why the tow?

[tim510]

dump pipe? intake pipe + filter? intercooler pipework and silicon? water lines? oil return?

[Deus Ex]

Dyno and Tow "in case"

Not keen on a 2nd hand turbo, but i guess its a trade off with a 2nd hand Genuine or a Brand new knock off, but everyone says Proboost is decent. Otherwise we are pretty much on the same page.

Is there any reason that i shouldn't look at a T04Z?

dump pipe? intake pipe + filter? intercooler pipework and silicon? water lines? oil return?

Got a filter and a intake pipe that should be ok, 1k was including pipework and silicone. Forgot about dump...add another 300 or so for that i guess. waterlines and oil return were included above.

[ALLMTR]

Is there any reason that i shouldn't look at a T04Z?

Cause a 35r will get you way over 400rwhp

[ALLMTR]

cos it might actually have a chance of doing what its supposed to?

For 400rwhp an ebay cooler is MUCH better value.

[TK]

Just jap/ebay 600x300x100 works just fine in the tonner, 480rwhp & intake temps only 15 odd deg above ambient.

What I'd do:

6Boost manifold
2nd hand XR6 GT35r
Ebay cooler & fitting kit
Tial gate
Bigger injectors
Retune

[JC]

I've got a single turbo setup on a 1J.. Not quite a 2J, but the idea and process is roughly the same.. Puts out 380rwhp @ 22psi.. I think it's still on a rather conservative tune too, feels like there's tons more power potential there..

Setup is:

HKS TO4Z special full turbine kit
Garrett Frount mount cooler kit
sard 530cc injectors with sard fuel pump
haltech e11 v2

[RX-20B]

.82 stainless exhaust housing

I don't know what they are worth though.
