Not all. Only the RB26 came with a FMIC. All the rest had a small side mount intercoolers. The R34 GTT's RB25 being the biggest of the sidemount intercoolers, but still limited to about 270RWHP before becoming inefficient

What exactly do you call fuel system ? Fuel lines and rail ?


Myke > big intercooler is not stock. This can easily explain 20-30ish HP.

The MAF does not give power. However i am not sure you can use an SAFC to alter settings enough for this change, it requires a new VE map.

Are you sure this car has never been mapped before ? You could not have ran with that MAF and the stock tune. It would not work at all.

So, are we ever going to get a video of these turbos performing on an RB25?

What makes this better than the Hypergear replacement turbos - besides the price?

I would love a couple vids of them. To be honest the pureturbo is more appealing to me because of the price.. Haven't heard much of anything about the hyper gear. Sileighty is the only one I know who has one.

I have videos of my dyno runs, sadly I'm a little upset right now as this turbo is less then 500 miles old and I'm sure u can guess what happend. Needless to say no one wants to return my calls after I sent them a video, I would have called 5 seconds later if it was me. Time to find something else

No thats after I had my tuner mess with the safc. Before the tune he did a pull and got 308.2 with 229 of tq when we finished it now makes 328hp and 260 and that is at the wheels on 8 to 9 lbs, I'm havin an issue right now so if they can help take care of it I can get new injectors and turn up the boost

Maybe there is a common cause to the death of your previous turbo, and the premature death of this one.

Do you have an oil pressure gauge ? what kind of pressures do you get ? If that is an oil related problem, your whole engine is the next on the line so it is worth checking.

Post videos of those dyno runs. You are the one who did 328WHP on 9 PSI right?

So your turbo blew up at 9 psi and pure turbos wont get in contact with you?

Oh yeah i saw that. I spoke to Raw Brokerage about that and asked where or what state they get their turbos done. Told me It's outsourced to a shop in California so i wouldn't be surprised if it's the same shop that made OPs turbo.

Damn, we just need some solid numbers or background testing to confirm the claims of these turbos. Why is that so difficult to provide. Potential customers just want reassurance

seen on the ad :

Quote:
Note: Many RB oil feed lines have a built in restrictor which must be replaced with a standard -4 oil feed line.
@ myke > did you do that when the turbo was installed ?

I'm happy that someone stateside are providing hybrid turbos for RB's.

I just hope they are (re-)building quality turbos.

I don't know much about turbos but don't larger turbos make more power psi per psi compared to smaller turbos. Google shows many results for people trying to figure this out.

Based on their ad the turbo is a journal bearing so you dont need a restrictor unless it starts to smoke or seep oil. I've had Skyline's where we did indeed need to put a journal bearing restrictor in place. For the most part journal bearings dont need restrictors.

Anyways, did you use the stock oil feed line that came with engine or did you replace the line and put in a brand new AN-4 or AN-3 line?

Yea I used the stock lines that were on the motor, it does smoke on decel and I'm going through oil like a maybe 2 quarts a week, if I don't go into boost or the highway it seems fine , do u have an idea of what restrictor size I'd need , I don't have a oil pressure gauge so I don't now what its putting out, or if this smoke is maybe valve seals now
