Turbo Preference for 4age

[Soarer_D00D]

I know a chick who has a T3 off a RB20 or 25 (Cant remember) on her 4AGE, and her car doesnt spool till at LEAST 3800-4000rpm, and spools a constant 18psi until 7500-8000rpm.

But thats crazy..

On a 1.6L 4cyl, a T25 or a T28 would be good suited unless your insane. if your insane, try a GT35/40

I only ask because I'm considering twincharging

[Megz]

Also wat would be a good price for a t25g 2nd hand?

great thread
i would like to know what turbo would be best for a 7agte
i want something that spools very early and dosent run out of puff
i was thinking t25 as i am not a dyno queen and really only want 220bhp at the flywheel but i have heard it will run out of puff real early
any suggestions
cost not really a factor

Cheers.... 7agte ay? something different!
Money will be sort of an issue but if anyone has any prices it would be much appreciated.
Cheers

Mate of mine has a gt30 on a 20v/gze block.
155kw @ 16psi. That sudden increase in torque - that's at 5000rpm.


I guess the options are somewhere between the gt25 and the gt30.

I'd love to see his turbo paired with a supercharger - just to see what'd happen.

[Megz]

Also would it be recommended getting an oil cooler for the setup? Or wouldn't it be a problem for such a small amount of boost?
Cheers

Any idea of how much that would have dropped the compression by?
thats probably a good simple solution in many cases.

i think i worked it out once useing the equation in the ACL gasket book, but i cannot remember now what i came too. my HG is 2.6mm thick by memory.

4000-8000 is quite a usable powerband but a gt 35/40 would be stupid unless your gonna spin the motor to 10k +

[Soarer_D00D]

I know of a good condition T25 going for around the $400 mark.

F**k me. Does that look awkward to drive or what. Would be next to useless on the street.

more like would be next to FUN on the street, wheelspin anyone?
MEGZ- yeah mate, still got the sprinter. it's out the front of my workshop with zero interior (were modifying/covering the dash etc) zero suspension (coilover's are on the way). i have the 4age ready for it, and a 4agte building in progress. it's bright blue like simons car, black bonnet. i'll get some photo's when she is all done, and i might even do a write up on the coilover conversion.
with the turbo, your best bet is a T or GT25, maybe even a wrx turbo (which can be found for cheap) i'd run an oil cooler (you can get them from the wreckers (cheap) or new for like 400)

[4agte]

or new from just jap for a 19 row for $99 altho you will need a thermostat and sandwich plate but if its for a 4age you should allready have the sandwich plate

[45aken]

$99 dollars is crazy cheap. might have to get one. you may have to include braided hoses though (or rubber) and fittings

[4agte]

you will have to unless you buy the 1jz or 2jz kits but i dont know if the sandwich plates would fit a 4age block

edit: the fittings arent all that $$$ even for braided with anodised fittings it would probably cost $300 or so but obviously rubber hose and non anodised fittings would be alot cheaper
