My
pick of 'em would be in this order:
1.
Disco Potato
2. T28
Ballbearing
3. T28
plain bearing
4.
T25g from SR20 ("g" is high-flowed from the factory)
5. T25
from CA18 (The "g" makes a HUGE difference, I have compared them on 2 identical
spec cars, and the "g" kicks in a lot harder and makes gobs more power than the
plain T25)
6. T2
from ET pulsar, That was a joke... seriously don't bother with this one..
Hehhe.
Hooking it up, if you can afford to, lash out on steel braided oil line
for the top hose, using BSP fittings. They are 1000x times easier to work with
than bundy tube, they use bundy tube in factory setups and it is a bastard to do
up and undo, particularly when it's a few years old and been super hot a number
of times, and starting to rust and turn manky. Talk to a hydraulic hose mob
(like pirtek$$) about the right length and sizes of steel braid before you do it
tho, coz it costs something like $50 a foot for this stuff and you don't want a
hose that's too short.
Well
worth doing tho! Spend the money once and you will have no problems with
this stuff, I can't stress it enough.
If you
want some really good reading material before you start, I really highly
recommend 2 books;
1.
Forced Induction Performance Tuning by A. Graham Bell. Around
$60
2.
Maximum Boost by Corky Bell. About $80 last time I looked.
It's
$140 now, but I guarantee that these 2 books will save you thousands of $ over
the years if you continue to play with various turbos & stuff. A bloody good
investment no matter which way you look at it, even if you just buy the first
book, you will learn SO much!
These
books completely opened up my eyes to the world of turbos, and setting up
everything around it to get the most out of the turbo.
Going
fast is 70% theory, 20% hard work, 9% driving skill and 1% money. Some people
opt for the 71% money & no knowledge route, I say just go read the damn
books!!
In
your instance, you NEED these books mate, making a Naturally Aspirated engine -
turbo is not an easy thing to do right.
