Upgraded my turbo today... <<PICS>>
 
Ok so i've been spooling a small ass T25 off of a 300zx for last few months, and a couple of days ago i got a package with my new turbo... a Ball Bearing T28 off of a JDM Silvia, specs on the old turbo are .54 turbine and A/R .48, new turbo is .64 turbine and A/R is .60... car needs alot of tuning because at this time it runs like ass :-[

here are some pics:

yeah i'll be running an open down pipe for a few days untill i can go over to my friens shop and run a pipe to my catback...

After the install i went for a test drive and after i came back and turned the car off i could hear some sound coming from the engine bay, so i was like WTF? poped the hood, and it was my turbo still spinning for like good 20-25 seconds after the car was off... BALL BEARING POWAAAA NIGGA

nice....be sure to let it idle for a bit like that after a good run, you dont want that shaft spinning without oil going threw it!!!! what kind of spool time you getting with that??

that thing will not work... if you were to bolt that thing to my turbo you would have to ditch the radiator fan, that fuckn pipe comes out at such an angle that it would be imposible for me to run it...

and as far as the top end goes there is none... :-X fucker boggs big time once i hit 5k
