rb25det series 1 turbo...

[UncleBen]

I got a guy offering to trade me turbo's from his RB powered s14. Its a series 1 turbo, 58k miles, no shaft play. He wants something bigger, I want something smaller. I asked him $250 plus his turbo, anyone have any knowledge on this? I want something that spools sooner (mine hits like 6lbs at 4500, starts boosting at 3500), so a t3 turbine and t28 compressor (englarged wheels) would be more fun on the KA. Mine feels so smooth and strong under boost, but was dead even with a t25 KA from 65 to 120, so Im' not insanely happy with it. It will spin through 2nd HARD, but I want something funner for daily driving, I dont want to rev like a honda to get boost. So what's everyones opinions?

do it ben that turbo will give you boost and power much more quickly

I wouldnt be surprised to see full boost by 3800 with that turbo.

Brandon said its non-ceramic, therefore it wont anialate itself at high boost. I wont have high boost anyway, but eh.

Yea I want to do it.....I made an offer to him.

O yea forgot he has the stronger internals than the Series 2. Series 2 is limited to like 11-12 psi max.

Its on like Donkey Kong.

Has he asked Brandon Loague about me moving in do you know? If he hasn't, will you?

You should have full spool by 2800-3000. If you don't, somthing is wrong. Also, my buddy ran 16 psi with that turbo for over a year everyday.

Definately will be the next phase in the KA's life then. Will begin this week

Definitly keep us posted...I can get RB turbo's pretty cheap. I still like the RB20 with the inconel exhaust wheel and ceramic ball bearings...will last forever and have NO lag. Not good for power, but 8-10 psi will be fun.

we'll see how this one does, i might hit you up for one of those eventually, who knows. i am anxious to get this done. hopefully it will run as good, just as good much sooner
