Turbo replacement questions
Mr Alford:
--- Quote from: "Traybackdan" ---you can make 300's fit, but its a pain in the ass, and your not gaining anything :roll:
13-15psi is plentyfull, when a tubby is goosed you cant get any more than 9psi even when tweaked in my experiance ( dont even go there....just awaiting for xtremeteam now to roll in :roll: )
my comp truck is running a brand new stock turbo and its brill ( running 1.4bar)
why do you want a different tubby exactly ?
just run this one out until it expires,
your actualy running a higher pressure than a stock 200 engine btw

yep i cranked up the actuator 6 turns as it was running between 7 and 9 psi, it runs alot better now but its not very powerful and its useless at pulling away in second do you rekon this has nething to do with my tyres?
extreme90:
if your on stock gearing then yes
my answer to overcome it would be, dont fit a defender t/box as you'll hate it
fit a full width intercooler :wink:
then you'll have some grunt behind you
my friends challenge disco is on the stock t/box and running 35inch simex,
he got his tweaked exactly the same as my 90, and itll keep up with me just fine :evil:
roughly how long until you turbo spools up tho fro pull of 1st gear ?

1900rpm i think it comes up pretty quick why?
and what intercooler would you recommend?
also does anyone have any pics of the full width intercooler ?
extreme90:
now i would say thats normal for a 200
id be spending the money on a intercooler
me, ive got a straight forward supplys intercooler on mine, not all shiney and bingly like allisport or similar, cos end o day, it does the same job, and is only going to end up with a branch sticking through it one day anyhows :roll:
so instead of spending 400 quid, i opted for only 190 quid 8) 8)
you better off going through upto the axles though, you'll be able get hold of him, unlike sfs :roll: :roll:
