I'm a little interested... a... paper towel?

I have been very interested in the S300sxe line as well. Very intrigued and wanting to try the T4 divided 1.00 A/R S366sxe, however the thing is massive and I don't know about clearance issues, topmount or not. Plus I decided the car is going to go stupid fast later in it's life, so 90lbs/min...

Figured it would be cool to have a list of real world experience in using x turbo vs. y turbo. Pretty much, what turbo you run, and why! Feel free to throw in future plans or questions about turbos nobody has really ran. For myself: currently on a k04, being swapped out in a month for a...

In for the guys at Speed Solutions. Chris and Fozzy have helped me a lot, from VVT, to diagnosing timing issues that weren't there. I'll be putting my car in their hands for my topmount turbo soon. But I digress. Love the info you got on here man. Way to push the platform!

Hi, my name is Phil and I like to not take pictures of all the shit I have piled up in the corner of my room. ALL MY TURBSKY GOODIES ARE HERE. I have my manifold on hand, PTE 5858, TiAL MV-S wastegate, dump tube and adapter, extra SSQV, FMIC (already on car), oil feed line, and a 4" HTP intake...

So getting the turbo on is taking forever. I'm going to have to hold off on the Damond adapter right now, so my initial turbo swap will include the new turbo, manifold, modified fmic piping, and a 4" intake. Future plans will be the DM FoST port injection adapter with a throttle spacer, meth...

You're the type of person I like, because you remind me of me. Impulse FTW.

I'd buy for weight savings really. Nobody shatters theirs or grenades the rear diff because the PTU goes out first. I still don't know how comfortable I am with that thing even with the upgraded caps. But that looks hella cool. Wish they woulda been around when I ripped my DS apart.

That's why I ask questions, because of answers like that and don't get asshole responses. Thank you very much @mangosmoothie

Because I'm a little mechanically stupid, how would the guides or seals cause oil burning?

So we've eliminated turbo seals, rings, and compression looks good.. and you're still thinking exhaust valves sears, correct? Just trying to summarize and brainstorm. You stated there was oil in your hot side piping, do you have any catch can set up? The oil would have to get into the intake or...

There's a t25 version of the eBay mani I'm using as well. Looks exactly the same, just different flange. Thought about all of that, but it'd take me forever and a half to afford the EFR. Personally I'd almost have to bite the bullet and go v-band or t4 divided, simply because of the type of...

Well, no point now with my 5858 staring me down in my dining room. Maybe for the SRT4 I might be picking up later. But I digress. The options with T3 flanges are incredible. As far as the mani goes, I'm extremely excited for a cheap topmount. It's perfectly feasible to have the mani, get it...

With all the bells and whistles, I'm only.out about $1500 for a mani, pte 5858, bov, fmic, ewg, lines, and dp. It's great. I was contemplating a 7163, but unfortunately I can't find anything except t25, t4 and v-band flange options.

Just making sure, I personally wouldn't use the treadstone mani. The flange is angled awkwardly in my opinion. The eBay one is essentially the same thing with the flange parallel to the valve cover, not at a 30 or so degree angle towards the firewall. And I'm sure you can get a t3 flange made...

Only a fmic away from the mani and turbo being put on. In due time!

Similar to your consumption, however it has reduced since I reworked my K04. I'm about to go with a different turbo, because the K04 was the first diagnosis for mass loss of oil. I need to look at rebuilding, but a college kid only has so much money. I'll have my guys do a leakdown, that sounds...

Same thing happens to me occasionally, in for possible causes.

GUYS GUYS LOOOOOOOOKKKK IT IS SO. FUCKING. HUGE. AH. All I need now is the manifold, FMIC setup, drain line and modified downpipe. IT'S SO CLOSE.

You're the best. I need lessons.
