Hey mate - I'm running .63 A/R turbo housing


Those are impresive dyno resluts with 0.63:)

Did you had any problems pushing the boost to 1.8 bar????

I've had my head stuck in work and exams so missed this.. The key issue that I faced was with the cooling when the boost went up too high.

The next step would have been to go to a charge-cooler or similar which I decided not to do. I figured that the car was fast enough!

I think you should run a size up on the Ar. i think 0.82 is the next size up on your turbo? I personally think the .63 is too small ,expec for a 2.3L displacement. Doing this will drop your intake temps and give you better mid~top end power figures.

Oh cant i just convince you to fit a HTA or GTX 35r to it :mrgreen: I would love to see what the spool is like with the 2.3!! (and btw, with the correct fuelling, you could see 600hp + on one of those ;D )

Hey RyanRs

I just saw your post! I really don't want to get the itch again haha.. I may consider a new turbo at some point - but that's another rabbit hole..
