just say NO to bullseye turbos, they are knockoff borgwarners and the S366 is NOT the turbo you want to run.

100% genuine BorgWarner is where its at if you need help with sizing the proper turbo for your application i would be happy to help

borgwarner has 60 manufacturing plants in 12 countries... producing some of the best turbochargers in the world. <Bullseye just makes knockoffs in their michigan shop> if you want to reach me the best way is email -- geoff[at]full-race[dot]com and i usually respond within 1-2 days. right now is a little hectic so it could be a little longer.

so we got that weird dip figured out tonite, and why it was so laggy -- there was a small tear in the wastegate diaphragm! this caused extra lag, and weird behavior when the wastegate was opening.

NOTE: LEARN FROM MY ERROR -- ALWAYS RUN THE WASTEGATES OFF COMPRESSOR HSG TO AVOID ANY VACUUM BEING SEEN BY THE WASTEGATE> IF YOU RUN WASTEGATE OFF OF INTAKE MANIFOLD USE A CHECK VALVE

Geoff -

Yep, we just need to convert it over. Would help if there was more discussion (text)... Shoot me over anything you'd like to see added (about F-R).

Also, you NEED to be here: http://www.nissanconvention.com/

[QUOTE=full-race geoff]

borg warner 61mm twinscroll - its basically a twinscroll 35R on steriods.

i suggest copying my fuel setup using an ID1000cc injector + the same fuel setup im using for your 700whp goals... im runnign E85 and i did 750whp no problem at 75psi base fuel pressure.[QUOTE=full-race geoff]

only problem im sr20det lol 1450 cc should od plenty good when i do my full build but right now im working with a company wanting to have an e85 product so right now im going with 750cc injector tuned@4 bar , walbro 255lpf ,aeromotive fpr , for fuel set up

Am I misunderstanding this? Your running four bar boost or is that fuel pressure?

since 4 bar = 58.02 psi

Is the R14 diy kit legit because all ive found is 12800for steel kit and 14,600 for the alluminum "turn key". also is the whole drop it off and pick it up in 8-12 weeks true?? it'll kill me if i cant do this conversion...lemme know soon please
