Jake Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I guess it depends on whether they are UK spec based hybrids or j-spec based ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I guess it depends on whether they are UK spec based hybrids or j-spec based ones. Why? as whether they are hybrid UK or J spec, both in theory should have modded/bigger compressor wheel, and if J spec the exhaust side should be metal, i doubt you will need RR more than likely a boost controller.

Because the Jspec wastegate is smaller than the UK's one. Unless the JSpec WG has also been modified I shouldn't think it'll cope any better than they do on stock J ones.

Class One Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 If you currently run your car with an RR fitted, then I would keep it and use your ebc to up your boost. Soop Dogs was a GZ but i don't know if it was a Jspec or Uk car. I don't know if Ians is a Jspec or UK car. They were both running 550's and e manage on these turbos anyway with a EBC, so I would recommend that you do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
