Wow those gold lights look awesome. They the ones from ECS? Something really different and set it off nicely.

What a beast!
Won't the 35xx turbos be lag monsters or will engine capacity make up for it?
I'm used to reading about 2L where 3076 is a strong option without huge lag.Comment

Yup they are the laminex brand yellow covers from ECS, Seem to really help night time visibility, and make the xenons glow a lurid green!Originally posted by BI65ND View Post
Nah a GT30 is probably better suited to a 2.8l VR6 motored bora, i recently went for a ride in an HPA tuned mk5 R32 (gt30), and the power and torque delivery, in my eyes, was way too sharp down low... i think a little lag is a good thing, i want to be able to chill off boost if need be, and i think with the gt30 it is just a little to punchy... The gt35r should be produce roughly 180kw at the crank, before hitting 3200rpm. thats more than the engine currently makes at 6500.. running ~19 PSI i hope to see at a minimum 350kw and 520Nm at all fours once all in and running...Originally posted by tinto View Post
Big delays on this project at this time, but i will hopefully deliver soon.

agreed, you want a biggish turbo on an R32.
3.2L motor with a long stroke will spool a big turbo quite easily, and you dont want to be permanently on boost when cruising down the freeway etc.Current: '04 Astra SRI Turbo - EDS IPF Flash, 3" TBE, Quaife LSD

There has been a change in the development, I am going with HPA, using a hybrid GT3540R with ported compressor housing and .82AR,
V-Band out, 38mm external wastegate, I have a cast manifold from 034Motorsport and a custom ceramic coated 3" downpipe made here
in Perth. HPA is supplying the tuning and i am going to run their CVP Intake and Water/Air intercooler kit and a Dedicated fuel management system. So between 034,HPA,Gruvenparts,ECS and locals including help from Dr Seb, i should have this project in the up by the end of this year.
Again, watch the **** out.Last edited by type 17; 30-03-2011, 12:20 AM.'76 Mk1 LS
