I've posted these before. I recon they would be worth a go.

I just tried a second attempt at glueing this one back up. I looked at it again and noticed the araldite was rubbery rather than solid so I suspect I didn't mix it enough before applying. Also now added some plastic strips on the side for added strength. Gotta go to Cairns for 5 days so will test it again when I get back.

They look good just don't buy the ones you linked they look like t25 rears. You want these specific GTO ones.

sweet....
only have to work out what boost springs to use :P

GTWHOA · 02-25-2013, 03:25 AM

I'd be tossing up between 0.8 bar and 1 bar but recommend 0.8 or bar ~11.5-12psi for your setup. That way on your lowest boost it will be very safe knock wise without using your meth if someone borrows the car or something.

FRR35H · 02-25-2013, 03:02 PM

Yeh thats what I thought. So that means bout 12-14.5 psi per turbo right? So bout 24psi is what im probably looking at running if all goes well. Then hqve a low boost setting of 12-14psi.
Am I getting that right?

A general rule is to pick the boost you want and halve it for your wastegate or wastegates. If you're going for 24psi the 0.8 bar will be perfect. At the end of the day people still push 6psi gates to over 20psi with no probs. You're not gonna know this car

Yep exactly what I thought but you explained it so much simpler lol...
Yeh I cant wait. A part of me is a lil scared
But ill habe a good run in period to gradually get used to it.

Lol. So I went for a drive today in John's 2000 model. Realised it was only the second time ever sitting in the passenger seat of a gto and only the 2nd gto I have ever driven.
