lolatgodspeed

 

jtran out of texas
bp out of canada
S&R out of florida

but brah please go with the better build kit from godspeed...

 

Boosted Performance from Canada FTW!!!

 

this ^
BP kit looks like it has the best response out of the 3 in terms of turbo options and spool. the S&R kit had quite a lazy tq curve on the 2 that we have seen so far

 

Boosted Performance is the only way to go!



Outstanding craftsmanship, topped off by unsurpassed customer support...

Thanks for all the responses. i feel like such a noob on her. so i assume the godspeed stuff is junk. i just cant see spending 5k on a single turbo kit.I will probly just build my own at this point. i have built 5-6-700 hp rx7s so i know what is involved. the only reason i was going wwith a kit is to save time. when i start the project i will keep you guys posted. any advise is appreciated

 

............... yah of course ebay crap is junk im not sure why you cant imagine spending 5k on a turbo kit if you made that much power since you would be spending 2k5 on just a dbb turbo.............

going with sasha was 7k for turbo kit with dbb turbo, custom stainless straight pipe exhaust, fuel surge tank, and oil catch can puts it about 5k5 for the turbo kit itself and its not even really sweating yet at 600 hp/tq to the wheels.

 

Actually the Precision PT6266CEA is $1599 for the ball bearing version, but "+1" to your main point.

OP, if you balk at the idea of spending $5K for a quality turbo kit, going FI on the VQ isn't for you. Even as a DIY project, you could easily spend 5K in supporting mods once you add up the costs of decent aftermarket clutch, exhaust, cooling mods, gauges, return fuel system, plenum spacer, EMS + tune, etc.

 

let me get you straight on this one... If you're looking for a show and go type of deal with a range of 450-600 or 700 whp go with the S&R single turbo kit. It's a top mount turbo kit so you have an Up-pipe and a ridicules pluming as will... on the other hand the BP kit is a mid-mount turbo so there is no up-pipe deal, so it's less lag in some way. you might get more response and more top end power as will, but the only thing that kept me away from this turbo kit is the involvement of an electric oil pump, so that's one more thing to go wrong. where the top mount uses gravity for the oil turbo cycle. Although if you're looking to make serious power just go with a twin turbo kit, cuz in the end of the road you will pay as much or even more to make less using a single turbo kit. and please don't start the "less turbo/s less issues" cuz this doesn't apply to this platform. the issue with these single turbo kits is the cross-over pipe they tend to either brake or leak before the turbo does bad. I'm two single turbo kits in already, and everyone in this forum was telling me to move to a twin turbo kit, but I was stubborn enough to refuse.. I make 517.8whp with a built DE and MT kit, which means I just pasted the limits of my stock block and I already maxing out the turbo kit "this is not caused by the size of the turbo it's more like the back-pressure created from the layout of the turbo kit it self". So bottom line " from looks and stock engine S&R/ built and reasonable power BP/ looks, insane power, with a built engine any TT kit".

thanks for all the info.i feel if i bout the de model i could save a few bucks on the turbo kit. i didnt know godspeed was ebay junk.i got alot of thinking to do. my whole point in buying the z and not another rx7 was to have a nice daily drive with some power..my wife said... how long till this one is in pieces... i said i wont do anything to it but drive itand so it begins.. thanks for all the help n not flamin the noob.does anyone know of any used kits for sale

 

Good sport!

We have a very active marketplace!

 

bahahahaha that's why I can't keep a girl anymore... as for the used kits check out the marketplace here on the forum... keep an eye on the Greedy/GTM they are the best as far as TTs would go.. DON'T BUY AN APS KIT... seriously it's impossible to find replacement parts for them.
EMS: you want something in budget and reliable get the UPREV reflash with the replacement MAF. save a bit more and get the Haltech EMS which rocks. Forget about greddy E-management it trash, as will as the Utec "turboxs".
Injectors: I run ID's 1000cc for a built engine and 600cc DW for stock.
Pump: DW340 is the best. you wanna run more fuel CJM twin bump is the way to go.
return fuel system: CJM stage 1 it's the best.
Clutch/flywheel: JWT up to 500 ft/lbs. want more carbonic twin clutch.
If you need more info feel free to PM.
Good luck,

 

oh wow they came down in price a little(unless im remember incorrectly) the 6265 i thought was 1200 with 1k ball bearing option when they made them, honestly havnt checked in awhile since if i where to buy anything it would be 66m exhaust wheel upgrade for 500 bucks.

 

i would have to say unless shooting for above 800 still dont need twins(im not sure what your definition of insane is. me and jeff arnt even coming close to maxing the 6765 at 650(jeff), the 66 wheel will offer a decent amount more then that, and sasha offers even still bigger.

 

Totally understood... although I'm running a gt35r that came with the MT kit so I maxed it out already.. I don't have anything against BP kits, and I know they make great power, but it's the time that the turbo takes to spool up. you're talking about a Dyno kill. basically it would make X amount of hps, although on the streets it's actually almost impossible to use them all since you have near to nothing in the low and mid range.. specially if you have a low CR build. I can feel the lag so bad in my MT kit, but when the turbo kicks in I'm more like the happiest man on earth lol. It's just my opinion in the end.

 

The pumps I use are the best you can get, and retail at $400. These are not the cheap pumps that STS uses.

With a 10,000 hour life cycle you will be just fine for a long time.

Have not had issues with this at all, 30+ kits out for about 3 years now.


Back pressure has nothing to do with the layout of the kit, and ALL to do with the size of the turbine housing. This is why I chose to use a T4 housing and not a T3 like the other manufacturers.

Same things goes with TT kits. You want to spool fast, get a JWT 530 kit. You will get instant spool, but won't be making more than 500whp up top because of the small turbos. For some reason a lot of people think that TT kit mean instant spool and tons of top end. In the end, fluid dynamics rules still apply.

If you don't like the way the mid mount spools, then go for the twin scroll kit:





This is with a 6766 T4 1.0 a/r JB turbo:

 

Yes, I will have a used GTM Stage 2 kit for the HR in a few weeks. I will make you are real good deal on it.
