Hi guys,
Just wondering what kits are available to turbo a GU petrol.
Otherwise who is best to call about a custom setup.
cheers.

Don't you have a turbo on your GQ from another post.?
I am running a td42 turbo manifold on my petrol gq and it fits
perfect and has performed as well as could be expected.
There have been comments by people that they can crack due to the heat of the petrol, but i am not convinced. However i have only had it on for a year, so maybe they can crack later in life.
So far I have had no problems running up to 18psi and making close to 200kw atw.
If you have trouble finding one i can source one for you for $550 delivered, brand new.
cheers.

I have a GU and am almost ready to fit a Garrett GT35/40 to mine. I think i will use turboglides high mount manifold but get them to drill the turbo flange to suit a T3 flange. Std it is a T25 which is a bit smaller and different bolt pitch.

Mate has a 4.5 turbo petrol. 220 kw but heaps of tuning problems but now sorted. Revs out and is very powerful.
It was a Safari kit.

roadnazi,
What kind of tuning probs?
Was it a unichip they installed or standalone?
What in the fuel system did he upgrade? Pump, Injectors, AFM etc?
Whats his rev limit?
cheers
