T2 MSW Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Jamie, Can I ask what made you go for the Boost Logic over the To4z?? Im looking at the same two specs you have looked at, im leaning on the t04z side at the min. Just wondered what made you go the boost logic route.

JamieP Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 Jamie, Can I ask what made you go for the Boost Logic over the To4z?? Im looking at the same two specs you have looked at, im leaning on the t04z side at the min. Just wondered what made you go the boost logic route. Tried and tested as a good kit, make good numbers with spool i can live with, and was a better range on the size of the .ar i could have. The hks T04-z comes with to big a hot side for my liking, i could have had a garret T04-z with a smaller .ar but after killing a couple of garret turbos already that put me off a bit. Oh and it was cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few small bits left to get but im pretty much there now with parts:) I do like the sound of the black powder coat look, stealthy and classy looking at the same time. Which discs are you using? Tempted to go with the lightweight floating ones the racers always seem to recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Yup lightweight drilled floating as recommended by Dusty:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 You'll like the 6-pots Jamie, I have the same but with Rdd slotted discs on the R34. Total overkill on the road, but there's a lot more feel than the 4-pots and they're well up to the job on the track. On Fuji Speedway I go from 165mph down the straight to a 2nd gear corner and the car takes it in it's stride. Pedal gets a bit soft after 20 minutes though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
