*Turbo Chat Thread*

[dkpr87]

thanks buddy.. i know its a cheap kit.. was thinking if i get all pipework ceramic coated and only want to runs low boost as i have a jdm k20a engine high compression.. should be ok.. if the turbo gives up i can replace that no problem. i heard its best to restrict the oil lines.. so turbo last a bit longer... you experts should know.

thanks any help appreciated

Gotta be careful with that though, when a turbo blows you don't know what particulates go where, and you may risk the motor in some cases. BW Turbos are cheap, reliable, and have a 1-year warranty from BW so that's not a bad option if you're on a budget.

Thought mainly Garrett turbo needed restricting. But heard some come with built in restrictors now. I would not be restricting the eBay turbo though as its most likely journal bearing.

Some JBs still may need a restrictor, just depends on the turbo. My old PTE 6766 JB needed a .06 Restrictor :-(
