lol....get your flame suit on mate

but.........old man high flowed his turbo, 3inch exhaust and dump and boost controller, good dyno tune it made 110rwk on 35s with 4.1 ratios on low boost. Which is a considerable improvement over standard. Doesnt run hot (aircon on, 40degree days and big hills) and is great for towing. What most people do is a 3inch exhaust, dump pipe and boost controller and a good dyno tune.

yes my friend you are a dick,

im just asking, people mod these things for more power and i am just wondering what they have done, changed turbos, ball being, high flowed, intercooled, intake piping, exhaust, and all the other usual stuff, different turbos give different results, top end power, bottom end power, if you werent a knob you wouldnt have answered at all,

As i said i would withdraw my responese as i thought you were just being a smartass, but asyou explained your self via PM i am sorry, but as we all see alot of smart ass responses around here i figured i just got another one of them. Sorry,

around 86 at the wheels i think. lots of different mods, up the boost and fuel, exhaust of course. intercooler with the added boost. GT 28 turbo, denco turbo upgrade kit (has known awsome results) heaps of shite, the bigger turbos do stop spooling as early but the ballbearing GTs allow it to spool almost as quick as standard.
turbos are nice but i'd rather be blown

A good person to speak to about this sort of stuff would be Dzltec on here seems to know his stuff .

On my ute i started with 67 kw at the wheels on 33s and with 3 inch dump and exhaust , boost wound up to 10psi and pump timing & fuel setup ended up with 88 kw .
