I was just wondering if any of the Stage I Turbonetics Single Turbo owners out there plan on putting a T66 turbo in any time soon? Please PM me if so.

 

Already have changed the t60 into the t66 turbo car is making 500whp at 16psi right now.

 

I had this planned, long term and after I build the motor.

Sub

Is this a simple swap or is it much more complicated than that. I'm talking mechanics not tuning. I'm guessing the T66 is bigger so you going to need new manifolds, pipes? and ..?

 

damn i wanted to go tnetics single... but seems even with built motor they are putting down very little hp...

 

No you won't need a new manifold.. The exhaust housing is the same. It's actually a pretty simple procedure to do this swap.

 

what exactly is littlte hp????

 

I dont know where you have this info from, but +480whp is possible with the T60. And more than 600whp if you upgrade for the T66. So I wouldnt exactly call that "very little hp"

 

Sweet, and anyone who says that 400-500 WHP on a daily driven street car is low numbers... Is DADADA

Also I had the pleasure of meeting Jeff from Tuning Factory a week or so ago in MD.

Good guy

 

Not to put you/your car/your numbers down but for a T66 thats kinda low. I thought you had the 62-1 upgrade and not the T-66?? 500whp is almost possible with the standard turbo in the kit. With cams and a block Im planning on pushing the 60-1 to its limits...

 

480 whp is 565 bhp. The list of production cars with better power to weight ratio than a 565 horespoer Z are few. The Porsche GT, Ferrari Enzo, Saleen S7TT, and the McLaren F1 are the only ones that come to mind.

At 565 hp you own 99.9% of anything you come across on the road.

If 480 rwhp is not enough for you then exercise your option for the TN stage 2. I can't imagine you being dissapointed with 600 rwhp.

well lets see.... people with the turbonetics usually only put down with utec or emu around 400-410. people with TT have seen up into 550 on stock internals but can get safely into the 450 rwhp range. The high hp built motor turbonetics is that 500hp that has posted on this thread. I mean was the cost of building the motor worth an extra 100hp...? all im trying to say is people with built TT are able to get into 500's easy into 600 and people that want more can push it even higher. im just saying so far, so many things are limiting the kit that high HP is just REALLY hard to get.

And whoever it was that was saying get a stock car that has this much hp.... plz dont come and tell me stock vs modded. then with your logic we are retarded, we should all just buy modded old school mustangs or civic hatch backs. comparatively a turbonetics single turbo 350z built or not cant meet up with the hp of built or not built TT 350z's. may change in the future but for now that is reality.

 

Um yes it can. Either of the ST kits can put down up to 500 HP on the out of box turbo. Most people don't go that far on the stock motor. More TT guys have risked going further then mid 400s thats why the numbers are higher. Again both the 60-1 and GT35 compressors are good for 500 WHP. Higher then that its a simple compressor wheel upgrade and you are good to as far as you want. With a T66 you have the potential for 720, with a T76 900, and so on and so on. Oh and the cost to upgrade only the compressor wheel on a Turbonetics single turbo is MUCH less then the cost to upgrade the Greddy twins to get them to them same level.

 

whats up miaplaya, sorry 2 hear about what happened with your car. all i was saying is it seems that people were having problems pushing the car into upper hp's from where I read, cant remember what thread. another thing is I was also looking forward to see what you were gonna do with your built motor and see if you are able to extract more hp. I believe the other guy with the built motor said that cause of the piping or something that its really restricted or something. gl with your build, and honestly im looking for people with the Tnetics kit to prove me wrong cause this is my choice of FI unless the gtr motor turns out to be a turbo charged vq35, then its gonna be swap for me.

 

What happened with my car? Are you saying it blew? It didn't. I just got my oil changed again yesterday, 33k miles with the turbo kit and 53k total. Still running strong..

 

oh woops for some reason I was mistaking alberto with you imma idiot. but anyways, like i was saying Miaplaya the kit may have potential for so and so. BUTTTTT no one has gotten there yet. soo makes me kinda wonder if its really gonna get to those power levels. hopefully there will be more and more people pushing the limits of the tnetics kit and the numbers will get better.

 

No one has made it to 500 cause not many people are willing to risk their stock motor knowing full well that it isn't going to last very long at that power level. Most people are happy with low to mid 400s because thats what has been found to be fairly safe on the stock motor. If I had an unlimited budget and a built motor sitting around I would be happy to to run my car up to 500 on the stock motor till it went...

 

I dont think ive seen anyone produce a dyno sheet with a stock motor at over 420? so i dont know any tnetics kits in the mid 400's. another thing is, they were saying that there are certain pipes that cant be made bigger cause of location that is causing the kit even after built motor to have alot of restrictions. hopefully this all gets taken care of.

 

mia I know how much hell everyone has that argues with you so lemme just break it down and stop this, all i am saying is that so far, tnetics has produced the lower hp than all the TT. you cannot argue this since there isnt a single dyno sheet out there that could possibly match the built TT. but like you said the tnetics has more potential. hopefully one day we will all see this. im actually really curious the numbers that alberto is gonna be able to produce.

 

I don't know where your really comming from.... I only made a comparrisson between our cars and the fastest production cars in the world. Again just a comparison.

And your wrong about the TN's capacity to make power. Take the price of a TN T60 tuner kit, add headers, a UTEC a good (Topspeed Pro-1) exhaust, bored out throttle body, and you will be well into the 500 rwhp arena with the T60. The limiting factors aren't the T60 turbocharger in my opinion. The limiting factor is the volume of air the motor can move. The week link becomes the stock cast headers, and the throttle body. With a bored out throttle body, and some headers the engine will be able to move more volume. And your still well under the price of a twin turbo.

Don't forget all the TT kits use aftermarket exhaust manifolds.
