Hey mate no the turbo itself was the issue but I had to spend a shipload of time proving it was the turbo and not my set up.Quote:

Ok cool your drain will be fine mate, just make sure it's a nice smooth curve direct path to it and it'll be fine.

Tiny bit frustrating. Ringing around a few places to try and get an idea of price, stock & waiting periods on the turbo.
So far 2/3 places, are trying to shove some sort of a Garret down my throat. lol
Tried MTQ?

I did Rossco. He wasn't overly keen on selling BW stuff.Quote:

@AB & @MudRunnerTD, when you get a moment do you mind confirming these sound correct?
Obviously there is other gear I'm missing, which I haven't been able to find info on.
- Dump pipe - will be made at shop
- Hoses will be made at Pirtek - I still have to find exact fitting sizes.
- My current turbo has a Turbo smart boost controller... Will this be suitable? (Will get photo later)
- What assortment of studs will I need if any ?

Sorry mate I'm under the pump tonight with kids and setting up Xmas tree even though elves will be killed before December 1st!
This link should have the fittings required https://www.full-race.com/articles/e...ll-guidelines/
Image below for oil
Try and find our engine fittings for these or even take your old lines into pirtek and they'll sort you out or someone else can shimmy in.

Picked up the old bannga from Cornells and far out pretty happy lol. Fair increase in power & torque, more than i expected as i thought they were going to err well on the safe side of things! Anyway it's under 700nm which I'm happy with safety wise (just!) definitely don't want to go any further but has more potential to give. Low down pull is a Maaaaaasive increase to what it was and has erased any doubts I had that that was the way it was and was normal, response and pull from idle is frick'n awesome! ! Anyway just been driving it like a grandma so far but it's sooooo much more driveable now, can just cruise and it munches up hills with ease. So far egts and temp been very low. . .http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forum...018/11/183.jpg

Thats a great result mate. What did they have tonsay about it? Where they familiar with the BW? Is that comparison run your run on day one using the other pump? That is nearlly embarassing if thats the best old mate could get from his own pump!!!
Interesting. We should have a chat mate
Yeah they fixed that was the sender. Filled it up again and all good.Quote:

Many occasions pulled out into a small gap in traffic and would feel like it was stopped dead then would go once built up a bit of speed, which is not ideal lol.Quote:

Certainly credit to the Queensland boys and AB for such awesome R&D pretty easy for us to reap the benefits now lol. Been very happy with Cornells too pretty impressive set up over there, clean as a whistle place. .

Bunch of parts have been ordered & en route .
Had a chat to Pirtek just before , showed him some photos of Darren's, Mat's and Andy's fittings for a rough idea of what's needed and he said no dramas.
The ball is rolling !

Still a bit of homework to do & head spinning, mainly with hose fittings. But it's a start , and the end results i can't wait to see !

There isn't much to it mate, with some tech help from the forum you will be fine to do it mate!Quote:

Yeah wow. If those speeds are correct then regardless of the tacho your peaking at 75 to 80kms/h and im just winding up to peak at 90! That is nearly a gear!! Wow
At 70kmh im producing about 100kw and you have 140kw already.
At 80kmh your on boil at 165kw and im just thinking about it at 140kw! I dont see 165kw to about 105kmh. Jesus! Thats a big difference.

Thats got my attention mate. Kinda lagging a little by comparison. And 120 extra newton metres.

What size tyres and diff ratios are you running mate?

This thread is a great resource mate. FACEBOOK could never compare to the depth of information laid out here. Shame sooo many rely on FB for their info. They troll here then become FB mechanics overnight.
Glad your finding your way Eric. Pics tell 1000 stories.
Rosscos on 35" and 4.6's mate.

Hmmm ok so the 35 will suck a little and the 4.6s will make a fair bit of difference id think to that power curve?Quote:

Yep if anything Rosscos should be lacking more with the tyres V ratios.
Definitely feels very strong in the bottom end and does love to pull around the 2k mark and is quite different to before, kindo used to it having nothing then coming in form 1500 ish. Even in neutral can tell the difference when you give it a little rev sounds pretty beastly now. Need to drive it a bit more to get more of a feel for it. Interesting to see the difference between mine & Daz's seeing their such similar setups, sounds like his loves pulling in the top end where as mine seems happier in the bottom wonder if that is down to tuning? ? Either way both setups sounds good, proof is in the pudding if it's good to drive happy days. .

Gents.
I'm either blind or failed search school... and some links to GCG in this thread are stuffed.
I recall somewhere in the thread Darren or Mat linked the replacement can.... I just cannot find it!?
I need to know which can to order. The bloke at GCG asked this, as with all Borg's that hes sold, people have bought 1 or 2 different ones.
Is it the high boost one?? 16-32psi?
https://gcg.com.au/petrol-performanc...32-3psi-detail
Everything else I think I have covered.
Yes higher boost actuator
Id have thought that his rev range at 75kmh would be similar to mine at 85kmh. So the missing link in comparing the readouts is that mine doesnt show RPM which would really show the differential.Quote:
