Noz Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Found one for $900. Seems fairly sensibly priced I thought. No idea on shipping at the moment however. Thought I'd buy a proper turbo this time and do it properly. The target hp is 1000hp. All other upgrades would be aiming for that value. If another turbo size and price is reasonable appreciate the pointers. Thanks for advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David P Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 (edited) I don't know what the going rate is for one of those, but changing the "$" for a "£" is rule of thumb. Edit, Just looked on ebay, that's about half price? Edited June 23, 2015 by David P (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtin90 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 The turbo is rated to 1200hp you could fit a smaller more modern Gen2 pt6870 and still make close to 1000hp. Out of curiosity Will this be going on your na-t? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Indeed. Well, as far as it'll take me before it works out cheaper to get a ported GTE head, and at that point I might pick up a built longblock and just convert anyway. We'll see. All depends on what pops up for a few grand. Working abroad, I've enough to do whatever I want. I just want to enjoy it, and do it without cutting corners this time. I'll be getting your R154 I bought rebuilt, and maybe upgraded, just to last me until I swap the block out and I find a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll all depend on which bits come available at the right price. I'm in no rush. If I find a decent priced v160 full swap out I'll make sure I give you a shout for the NA LSD diff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And dont worry about the LSD I got one of Beiber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
