Indian,

Just remember, I had a GReddy T78 setup and I simply (well not really simply) put on the new turbo to the existing kit. The A-Spec kit won't have any of the issues mentioned in my writeup. And their kit uses the larger compressor wheel (more hp potential).



Alex, I am scheduled to hit the dyno next Tuesday morning. Assuming all works as planned, I will post my dyno runs later that day.

Michel
any idea on the price for the A-spec kit? Is the a-spec kit a plain bearing turbo too?

I think I'll do what you did with your kit...because I'm not that ******* mad as yet to pay that ******* price(no harm meant for a-spec) but that alot of green to spend when i have people around here to help me get the blasted thing to fit. i mean the kit is nice from a-spec, but goddamn, that some mula to spend.. Guess I'll me making up my own kit and ****. plus I think the gt40 will do just way fine, I mean the gt40r is great don't get me wrong, but just imagine how great your spooling with your plain bearing turbo. How much you got your for anyway. I might order one through you man . Thanks for help us out though rx7tt. Guys like you are the reason racing and modding will never die,great write up again.(*** kissing going on here) lol.

There's two GT35R's for sale on the (censored) forum but you would have to replace the .63 A/R since they were for a Supra. That's why I started the other thread cause I wanted more info on it (correct size A/R) and how to get a cheap kit.

I beleive A-Spec's kit is $700 "less" then Rotary Extreme's similar kit and it "includes a dump tube back to the DP.

Actually after the sale, A-Spec's kit will be $1,000 less and still have the dump tube. Although, not as beautifully poilished but i'd heat coat it anyhow.

Chuck seems like a good guy. Have not bought from him but for the right price I would. Unlike EVIL STORE.



Sean and Steve got my money because they were bleeding edge and made the kit first. Not to mention they put up with me.

LOL, ditto. Sean was a big help with everything which is why he's getting my money for the 40R kit. Chuck too, has always come through and I have many, many parts on my car from him :-) We live in good times, that's for sure.
