he is replaceing the stock td04 with some billet turbo his is getting of a mate, was on a bug eye sti making LOTS of power.


i have put some of my parts into this car so the way i see it, they buy me track time in the car haha.

[Ben_20EJT]

the mods have been slow, but once dad sells his old race car (got to slow for him) the mods will flow, roll cadge and fixed back race seat, coil overs etc. i cant wait to see this get out on the track. ill let you all know when its 1st outting will be.

thanks

let me know what you's replace & throw away as i may need a few bits and peices to finish mine up

[Ben_20EJT]

new turbo came on the weekend, its the biggest fitment turbo for the stock spot, was told it was making 300kw atw and a BUILT 2.5.

car will have its 1st outting on the 28th, dad is running a super sprint day, so come for a drive down if you want, ill be there somewhere, probs doing prep/work on the car because dad wont want to get his race suit dirty, ive put gear boxes is his last race car for this reson.

what turbo is it? sounds too big for a 2.0, wakefield is a pretty tight track, you only need power for the straight the rest of it is all bends!

I was thinking the same. Even then the straight isn't that long...

stock turbo for now, the new turbo will go on when old mate builds the EJ25.

[Ben_20EJT]

ok, wakefeild yesterday and the wrx went pop, ahhh the joys of a thefit recovey wrx hhahaha. sounds like a diesel. will post up what dad finds when the motor comes out and gets striped down. may be looking at a EJ25 turbo.

[Ben_20EJT]

ok, motor is now rebuilt with new rings and race bearing, braided turbo oil lines and APS45r turbo and all new seals. should be droped in the hole this weekend. and then the next step in a full cadge.

[alexGT]

thats a big turbo for a 2.0! its effectively a TD06 20G with 8cm rear housing, will be good on an open track but wakefield only really has the main straight to open up on. won't be getting full boost until 4200-4400rpm without AVCS.

what was the damage to the engine? did you consider a new forged short block EJ207? as they are semi-closed deck and can handle 20+psi on a large turbo with no issues!

[Ben_20EJT]

yer, if ends up to laggy for him, the stock td04 will go back on. he is saving up parts for a built ej25. he didnt consider the ej207 as thats probs as much as he paid for the car.

[Jimbo]

Hows a TD0620G go on a 2.5 with AVCS ala my car? What are your thoughts Alex? More driveable with 7cm rear?
