Turbo Size

Doubt it they are exact knock offs of the garett though so should be similar...

LOL 😂 😂 😂

XS power is a Knock off of garret turbo’s and just Google them to see the crap people are having
Are the MR Turbo turbo’s Chinese stuff?
How do you size correctly with out a flow map? How do you find out the turbo’s efficiency’s?
To me it’s like say I have 4 injectors they look like 550cc , Not to rain on anyone parade but we do own turbo cars and switching the turbo out for one we know nothing about except that maybe on a good day it could make 350HP

Hey Guys I have a problem my down pipe holes aren't lining up with my turbo. Should I have gotten the down pipe from an SR20 aswell ?

Or is the turbo wrong ? The packaging says TB28..... and also this one isn't water cooled like the other one ?

its not a garrett so it wont be exactly the same - specially in terms of water cooled. because of this i would highly recommend an oil cooler in the near future!

when i did my sr20det - it came with a t25g - the stock redtop turbo. i changed the turbo immediately to a t28 from an s14, but i kept the t25g downpipe. that downpipe didnt fit the bolt pattern of the s14 t28. facing the turbo the top left bolt was about a 1cm wider than the bolt pattern on the downpipe. once i sourced an s14 downpipe, everything was fine!

Strange... me and alfy used his stock CA downpipe on the conversion. no fitment issues what so ever.

Same here. I think the one bolt was out with a mm or two but I just used my moms pedicure file and fixed it. hehe

EEightySix16 Oct 2008, 18:30

Do you still have that down pipe veecee ? Could you maybe take a pic and post it for me, as that could be the one i'm looking for. My turbo's one hole is also about 1cm off.

Hey

Just want to find out if your car is up and running? Looking at doing that same conversion on my car with a new manifold and a FMIC.
