Turbo upgrade

[Mox32r]

Lol I come from owning an R32 gtr and supercharged ls 6.0. I know all about modifications being needed. But the videos I have watched and threads I read lead me to believe it was basically a bolt in affair apart from the compressor housing piping needing to be larger. I absolutely hate this car with a passion and was only upgrading the turbo as it needs to be fixed or replaced to make it easier to sell. You can have them all to your self mate 👍

haha upgrading the turbo to sell it? that's some weird logic... but you'll probably love the car if you followed a well-worn pathway of modifications

 

No big deal, if you don't like it, sell it.

That's with the supplied 45. Although I didn't get the 4"-4" just the supplied 3-4 as I thought I was going to do the battery relocation before I did the turbo. I guess Cutting the 45 back towards the turbo will work, but the return intercooler pipe faces that spot. I feel my choices would be make this work, which would be getting an intercooler that exits on the passenger side and preferably a throttle body relocation to not have to Crossover the engine at all, or put the stocker back on after I rebuild it

Bend that power steer sensor down.

Cut that silicone so the bend is closer to the turbo.

Angle it away from engine.

Get turbo side battery relocation kit.

Don't try and reinvent the wheel. Just do what others have proven to work.

That silicone is a 3 to 4 inch, it's a throw away for this job.

Hey guys. Over my litre tantrum with the BA lol. I have decided to go all out with this thing and need to sort out some issues. First off this is the first time I have touched it since about a week after my last post on here. I got to work one morning, drove there fine as normal but when I got to it in the arvo it would not run/idle properly. Like it was running on 3 or 4 cylinders, and when it's doing this the throttle is constantly unresponsive as if it's not even connected. So I got the error codes and they are the same as when it over boosts. Codes p1270 and p2110. But if I start it with my foot on the accelerator it will start and rev up to about 3k then drop to 2k and stay there. Idling at 2k but without any codes at all. Anyone got any ideas?
