Moose Member 185 Member For: 16y 10m 7d Gender: Male Location: Ipswich, QLD Posted 22/01/09 10:49 PM Share Posted 22/01/09 10:49 PM Hi guys!I have a second car on the way, allowing me to put the F6 in the shed and get serious. I am using a local shop (For anyone around Ipswich its "Scott's Rods" at Yamanto - ) for all my work, and they have suggest I go to a t04ze for the turbo, as its slightly bigger than the stock one, and will reach my overall goal of 400+rwkw!Has anyone seen a t04ze fitted to an XR6T/F6? I read a topic on here about the t04z, and im not sure what the difference is between the two. If its not such a great turbo, what would be a good replacement for around the same dollars?I will be doing everything including exhaust, plenum, bigger cooler and pipes, injectors, fuel pump etc etc - so keep that in mind.Cheers in advance!

Save yourself a few grand by not replacing it. Just a thought........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are going for an external gate you could look at the external gate mod that ETM does, this will give you better boost control and smoother exhaust flow from the turbo into the dump.

Guest Guests Posted 22/01/09 11:40 PM Share Posted 22/01/09 11:40 PM 'sIf you just wanna nudge the 400rwkw mark go with the stock turbo & get the ETM stage 1 mod. With that, you get the external gate (which you'd need to buy with a TO4z combo anyways) & the added bonus of a high rise manifold If you want 420 - 450 then go TO4ze & 450+ go T51r. Just remember though, as a rule of thumb the bigger the turbo the more lag you get. As these motors don't like to rev hard you get less usable power on the street... If it's gonna be a dyno queen then no need to worry but for a street combo the stock turbo is best!Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front housing is plenty big enough I think?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The front housing is plenty big enough I think?!Im not sure of anyone that has changed the rear housing (sure there is) but a few people have replaced the front housing witha 0.7a/r front housing. This seems to do the trick for about 430-440rwkw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
