Gt28Rs is now on and running

[tommymac]

Hey guys,

Thought I would update you with the progress of the 28rs onto my mk2 1.8T 20v.

After Chirs, Matt and I stayed up to 4 am this morning fixing it all up we got her running. The turds at ATPturbo jipped me and only put a 7PSI spring in the EG even though I asked for 15 psi. No Worries though we had a spare TurboXS bleeder. ...

All I can say is ....weapon, third gear wheel spins ahaha maybe fourth I don't know yet the testing ended when the BOV popped off the hose and by then we were so tired we decided to lock her up!

I will get pics and vids this weekend.

I want to say a big thanks to my best mate and occassional lover Yee man, he welded and helped with everything as always without him it wouldn't have really happened.

A thanks to Matt for coming to play all the time especially until 4 am when he works at 6am.

Also thanks to Adrian for being a gentleman a scholar, as always. (let us borrow the tig) and finally Tim for Pirtek Hornsby for sorting the **** heads out at Proflow.

Can't wait to see this!

[Jarred]

when does it hit boost? what spec turbo is it? (a/r?)

I'm guessing you've got it at 15 psi atm?

AGU motor or?

I think you should have gone for a GT30/40 as they can have external gate setup and often spool up just as well as a smaller turbo but with no real limit on the top end potential unless you plan going past 25psi on a 2L turbo.

I am sure it will happen now that the bigger turbo bug has bitten. When I changed from GT25 to GT30/40 I gained bottom end because the 4 inch smooth intake and smooth exhaust housing with no internal gate were that much more efficient

Crazy!

Let's see pics and vids ASAP! How about a synopsis of other stuff you've done? What's your expected kerb weight?

Vids for sure and take it to eastern creek for a street meet and see what it can do the quarter in...
