That must be why I haven't chucked a turbo on it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I was thinking by doing the breather I'd keep the cooler and piping nice and clean. Yep that other line goes back to the intake before the turbo. Had another bung welded into the pipe but hidden by the BOV return. I don't get much out of my drain either. Mine just has a bolt and a hose clamp under the car!

I will sell turbine housing and add supercore to my collection of potential turbos for my fgx, I have a gen 1 gtx3582r supercore and a old but brand new gt3582r supercore with the plastic bearing cages. My current turbo on car has gt3582r .70 cover with ceramic bearings. I got this latest turbo off trademe for $2800 nzd incl postage. I think I have a turbo buying problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will all have to wait until my finger is a bit better but it's all ready to go nonetheless . Got to say that Automotive Superstore were very good to deal with. Part of my order was delayed and they were very communicative before I even asked. Also were great with price matching. By contrast I ordered a couple of fittings off the Sparesbox eBay store on Saturday and they haven't shipped yet. Has happened with them before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a turbo from them and was told it's an 8 week wait so I got a refund and jeturbo got me the same turbo $500 cheaper nearly straight away.

The only way you'd be happy to wait 8 weeks is if you were getting something unbelievably cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I've had a single order go smoothly through them. Pity because their pricing is usually very competitive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
