Outer Limits 4x4 Board

g'day all got a 3 litre (rb30) gq patrol jus wondering if anyone has turboed theres and im not talking about fuel injected turbo (vl commodore turbo's) im talking about bolting turbo with just the stock carby

Cheerz regards Craig

why do you want to turbo the carby engine? injection is cheap enough to do

i am in the progress of doing one now,
use the efi maniforld. get all the injector holes welded up. run gas research every thin. use a to3. and highflow manifold. http://teamnaturallyaspirated.freeforum ... =3304#3304

that is what we have so far mate. we run a big turbo to4e to make it got harder. 11psi it will run 210kw with this set up

so how much would a decent manifold cost to get made up?

sorry for the hijack

ours cost'd 300

not bad,
im still undecided about turboing the GU. still thinking supercharger but the missus is on her Ps so cant drive forced induction

you can buy a stainless high mount for around $200. check out http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/ theres heaps of info and manifolds on there. ive just got a gtech manifold for mine, and looks to be good quality. shold be up and running in a few weeks. as for the carby, it wouldnt be worth the effott. do a search for nutter as he's got a write up on here for a gas turbo set up

ours is exact same as nutter. we start ours 2 moz

this will give you nearly step by step instructions on how to. I didn't cut corners though so my install is not cheap.

ours is costing 4k

if anyone can help me out:

im lookin at a gq shorty cut into ute, with a 3L engine.
it has a big rectangular air box on top to the side.

does that make it an RB30?
did shortys come out factory with 3L engine?

nah dude no 3l shorty's your looking at a diesel

nah dude its definatey got an rb30

regardless of what others may "think" is right, this is a stock RB30

thats exactly what it looks like, but with a diesel airbox on it. i know what all the standard motors are . and what they look like, i also knew that they didnt come out with it standard, but this car has one in it for some reason.... thats what i so bluntly pointed out

and i was talking to mull.... so dont take offence.
