[simmode1]

You know about the Emance 'Buyer Beware' thread, right? Just looking out for ya, brah...

zer...rtial

Holy shiz, I owe you a dollar next time I see ya.

Where else can I get a Ecu Hack tune for a decent price?

[480sx]

Tuning and hacks dont go well together man. If your going to spend money anywhere spend it on your tune. Or just run a FMU, stock injectors and low boost until you want to spend the cash.

Id recommend Enthalpy personally, his tunes are great.

+1 on Enthalpy, it's well worth the $500 knowing it'll get done the RIGHT way. (However he seems to be slow on customer service lately- but in the end still a good tuner.)

Or if you know a local tuner that knows his stuff.

Yeah I ran across him a couple of times but can't quite afford him yet.What FMU do I go with?I read a little chart thing when I was searching but I just don't understand whats going on. I found a guy with a similar set up that I'm going with and he's Running a 6:1 on 9-10psiI r confused.

Its all about your AFR's. I have heard 8:1 does the job, 6:1 probably works too you just need to either have a dyno check out your AFR's or invest in a wideband.

9-10 psi is high for a FMU imo. It can be done safely with at least a 3 degree base timing retard but that effects drivability.

[GTR PrYdE]

Well whats your setup?

I couldnt afford Enthalpy at the time, and ended up spending about $600(Enthalpy is 5) on tuning (luckily I found a bada$$ local tuner or else it wouldve been $750+) so take it for what you will. Tuning is probably the most important thing you can do to a turbo car..

[s14tan]

Well whats your setup?

I'm just going to do a T3/T4 set up till I want more.

Personally? Only if it didn't work.

eBay parts are tricky. You win some, you loose some. It's definitely a buyer-beware situation.

[s14tan]

I think I'll put myself up to be the guinea pig.

I'll def make a build thread either here or in 240gen and give you guys reviews of parts and lots of pics.

You have guys have any parts that you would like me to try from eBay?just let me know.( if its cheap, I'll snatch it up)

First on the shopping list is:

T04E turbo.SPECS:3" INLET DIAMETER2" OUTLETWET FLOATING BEARINGS1/8 NPT OIL INLET.57 COMPRESSOR WHEEL TRIM.50 A/R COMPRESSOR.63 A/R TURBINE

Tial Knock off 50mm BOV.

Lol meh, never hurts to have another Ebay first hand experiance around.

Your going to go with a t4? Seriously just go with the t3.t4 50 trim you will be much happier with the results. China makes plenty of them. ]

Make sure you use an oil restrictor or you will have problems with the cheap turbos.

What is the difference between the T04E and a t3/t4 turbo? I always thought that they were the same.

talk is cheap, just do it LOL .... boost is addictive

What is the difference between the T04E and a t3/t4 turbo? I always thought that they were the same.

T04[E], etc is referring to the compressor side of the T3/T4 turbo, which is a hybrid, using a T3 on the turbine and a T4 size on the compressor. T4 = T04. the "E" or sometimes you see "S" are the different wheel/trim size compressor size, the "S" is bigger than the "E"....
