And how is a basic question so funny??

 

Why isn't this useful info not sticky'd anymore?

 

The Mass air flow of each brand of turbocharger (therefore the Horsepower possible) depends on how much boost pressure you're prepared to run, the APS/Garrett ball bearing turbos are very efficient up to 25 PSI turbo pressure.

I know which turbocharger brand I'd feel safer running at high boost pressure, this is the real advantage of the water cooled Garret dual ball bearing system, the APS/Garret turbo charger bearing strength is far stronger than sleeve type bearings and can easily cope with very high boost pressure without bearing or thrust bearing failure.

That's only one of the reasons why APS/Garret dual ball bearing turbos are much more expensive than conventional sleeve bearing turbochargers, high mass air flow with bullett proof bearing strength.

Thanks

Nice right up. I think you left out some major parts, example the big difference of the watercooled ballbearing APS turbos are, compared to the greddys.

 

Old thread, but the OP link is dead. Does anyone have it to share, or something similar?

 

both of those kits are discontinued.....

there are plenty of greddy and aps dynos in the shop build section

 

I bet Sharif would like to read this quote on the GT-R....lol. I bet he's probably changed his tune.

 

its funny to read early threads from the FI forums. they are filled with gems like above.

 

Meh. I have beaten a stock gtr when I was TT'd. Maybe he was having a bad day on the "track" hah

 

I still would take the GT-R over anything Z FI'd. Negotiating on a titanium GT-R now.

 

Good choice. That's one of the 3 colors I'm painting my Z. That being my top choice.

 

After seeing it in person i was in awe. My top colors went from red, white, gun metal gray to titanium, gun metal grey. Only 129 titaniums were sold in the us. The color was discontinued due to lack of sales. However, its become a favorite among the GT-R crowd from my research.
