Default SFR Twin Turbo Kit *CHEAP*

[B]SOLD

I have for sale a used twin turbo kit from Speed Force Racing (http://www.speedforceracing.com/inde...productID=1013).

The reason I am selling this kit so cheaply is because it does not include the turbos. I repeat, no turbos are included in this kit. This is ideal for someone who wants to fabricate their own turbo setup or for someone who wants to buy a used turbo kit but doesn't want to run the risk of running used turbos. This turbo kit will work with a variety of turbos and you should contact TurboTim (owner of SFR) about what turbos would be ideal for the power you are trying to achieve. The SFR turbo kit can handle a large amount of horsepower but will run smoothly on even a stock block.

The standard tuner kit comes with 2 x Turbonetics 60-1 HiFi turbos and I believe that brand new these go for $800-900 each from SFR or you can probably source them cheaper elsewhere. There is a lot of other turbo options available from SFR as well.

The only issue I'm aware of with the kit is that the scavenge pump is damaged and needs to be repaired or replaced ($100 approx). You should expect to have a few bolts etc.. missing but that is pretty normal for a turbo kit. Comes with 2 Tial external wastegates and a HKS BOV.

As with anything you purchase on the internet, please research before purchasing this kit. I would highly recommend contacting TurboTim/SFR if you have any questions about the parts. I am selling this kit as is, what you see is what you get.

Heat wrapped Exhaust Manifolds:



Some of the piping and test pipes:




More piping:



Various bolts and other bits:


Intercooler in excellent condition:

do you know how much modifications this need to fit a g35?( I am also calling sfr right now as well)
Thanks

I bought it on the forum awhile back but I went a different route with my car. The manifolds as far as I know are fine, the original seller only claimed that the scavenge pump was broken. Post up what you hear from Tim regarding the fitment on a g35.

Not sure about kit differences in Z vs. G's....but if you were trying to put this on a sedan, Tim said it handy been attempted yet.

GLWS....now I'm thinking of buying this haha

Whoever buys this kit let me offer some advice as I own this kit.

1) don't replace the scavenge pump with the unit that comes with the kit (it's a piece of ****). Buy a turbowerxs exa pump.

2) don't buy the turbos that are supplied buy SFR (turbonetics). I had these replaced after 4k miles of driving due to leaking seals and turbonetics wouldn't warranty them due to them being out of warranty by a month. I ended up getting mine replace with Borg Warner turbos and haven't looked back.

I would only reccomend this kit for someone looking at building their block and making a highway monster. The turbos don't spool till around 4500 rpm so you have to rev the **** out of it to stay in the power band. The utilization of the long tube manifold really sets this kit apart from the greddy kit though. My car made 722 whp @20.5 psi on q16 race gas. It's a great kit if your goals are in line with what this kit was designed to do.

GLWS op. I <3 your salad bar<3

^Thanks for the info, just fyi you can easily make power at a lower rpm with this kit as well if you run smaller turbos like GT28RS etc...

True I am just basing my statement off of the size turbo that is traditionally sold with the kit (t3/t4 60-1).The buyer will have the ability to select a turbo that will suit their needs so that is a plus

I don't believe the tuner kit came with an oil pan or oil pan spacer. No fuel pump is included. Both of these items can be purchased for around $100 each.

Is there a PDF/ install guide?

I like to install things my self, I was reading and people said this is not as straight forward as a greedy/Gtm kit.

I mainly want to know where to mount the scavenge pump, so I am assuming this kit needs the pump since the turbos are so far back, and u recommend the jwt spacer so u can tape in to that correct?


I am asking you because they have not called or emailed me back yet(I'm sure they are just busy in shop though)

Yes the scavenge pump is utilized due to the turbo placement. This is what the instructions say
Mount the oil pump on the drivers side of the frame near the radiator support. Mount the pump so that is sits
upside down.Note: Make sure you understand which way the pump flows.There is an arrow that dictates the
direction of the oil flow on the bottom of the pump housing.The arrow points towards the return to the oil pan.Do
not route the lines to this pump backwards or turbo failure will result!


I was not recommending the JWT oil pan, I was simply pointing out the cost to add an oil pan spacer is minimal. There is quite a few different oil pans and oil pan spacers, I would research what other people have used but the JWT oil pan is extremely popular and low cost so it might be a good option. I myself am using an Power Enterprise Oil pan because I wanted to have a baffled oil pan. Its an expensive part so I would not recommend it if you are on a budget.
