i planned on runnin a 50shot fogger system to spool the turbo at the drags. and i wanted to try and run a quick spool valve to see how it would work with my setup. im not definite in my decisions or anythin, its jus somethin id like to try. i had originally planned to run the s366 but then i caught a glimpse of wat bullseye has done wit these s374s on the supras and thought to myself...i wonder if i can get it to work. so i jus figure wat the hell...

Player, we've seen this before. "Just an idea" turned into an actual plan. I'm not saying that one should never try things.. (Far from it, otherwise we wouldn't be doing this listening to mustang idiots) But that's a little much. We were just looking out for you to keep from making a major mistake. But, if you got the *****, do you what you gotta do, son. ;-)

S366, GT3794R, T3/T67, The STC Ghost Rider, PT6765 Billet, all would work, but are as big as you should go for anything to be used on a 2.0 Litre.

Tell us more about the The STC Ghost Rider. Is this turbo for people who want more than 650hp?

TheShodan

iTrader: (14)

its more for those going from 680whp-850whp. It's in testing stages right now. It is slightly larger than the REAPER at about 66.5mm inducer. Like the REAPER it will be Garrett based. After fighting and fighting and fighting, we were convinced that one more size up from 62.1mm is in order. After that, though, no more big giant stuff.

i'm curious how this pans out, the review, subcribed

If you're doing it for ***** & giggles, then have fun! Are you going to pay for a tune & then save up for your BW and retune again? If you're going for a street car, just keep this rebuilt turbo unless you're set on the BW. I had to wait an extra 2 months for my car to be tuned until TheShodan shipped out my Silver Surfer. I bought my turbo for what I'm doing with my car, not to play around with some 'other' turbo.

Just my .02 worth...a good friend of mine has the same setup as me except he kept the smaller turbo. Not a day goes by that he doesn't bitch about not having the right turbo. Anyhow, thanks TheShodan for talking me into waiting and I hope someone else has the common sense to do the same

LS AzZkIkr

I am still more interested in the REAPER as of now. I am looking at getting one from you hopefully over the winter and ditching this lazy thing hanging off my motor now. What exhaust housings do you offer with the REAPER again? A friend of mine has a t4 6765 and is thinking of getting a smaller turbo that is capable of his goals.

boostedteg909

Alright everybody. I jus finished my install. I must say the turbo itself was very easy going in. no issues with fitment at all. my intercooler pipe and oil feed lines went on without a hitch. the only real modification i had to do was weld the 4 bolt dp flange on, since the previous turbo was a 5 bolt. and get some adapter fittings for the oil feed line. this was a straight bolt on upgrade as it should be so no issues there. it is a bottom mount passenger side exit and had no issues with anythin being in the way. im runnin a civic aftermarket radiator or "halfsize" wit a 10" slimline fan and no a/c so i had no condenser or a/c compressor issues. i turned down the boost and am currently runnin off the wastgate at 4-5 pounds. i hav yet to upgrade the supporting parts for this turbo (injectors, ecu, pump etc...) so im a bit hesitant to get on it or even boost at all for that matter. but i did check boost threshold. for right now im on an LS setup with rods and pistons with no headwork and my threshold is around 3500 rpm. i do not kno exact rmp do to the cheap mechanical autozone boost gauge im runnin. with this turbo i did notice the overall sound of the motor has gotten a bit beefier and more throaty. so far so good. ill update as she progresses

LS AzZkIkr

Post some pics man.

boostedteg909

im tryin!! haha. the phone is slow. ima post some before and after stuff so you can all c jus how overkill this turbo is for this particular setup

Organization

how much did it cost to balance the rotating assembly on the turbo

boostedteg909

$30 out the door. so the money i saved by pickin it up nd not havin it shipped went to that

Organization

that's decent

boostedteg909

These pics are from the original setup i had

These pics r from the new install

interesting how Godspeed's manufacturer copied the Garrett T04S cover right down to the font size and EC-1 except the word GARRETT. (since they knew it was big no-no). that's just too cute. right on the border of legality, so if mounted in a certain position, the casual observer wouldn't know the difference

boostedteg909

hell...they copied the borg warner kkk turbine housing down to the serial number. they jus machined it out to accept the garrett copied bearing housing

LS AzZkIkr

Where did you get it rebalanced at? It looks exactly like my turbo that I have now. I am very interested to see how it responds on your setup.

Also how could they have copied Garretts housing like that? Could it be T3T67 copycat? I wonder if they (Godspeed) bought the design perhaps? Idk, I am in for some results and looks good! I would definitely expect it to be lazy!

boostedteg909

well anytime u put a t4 turbo on a 1.8 its gonna b a lil slow. which this is definitely a slower response than that ebay t3t4 i had. nd this turbo is in no way a t3. the only thing t3 bout it is the flange. nd i got her rebalanced at a local shop called commercial turbo. ill get some more definitive results after injectors nd a basemap. after that ima head over to do it dyno nd c wat numbers she puts down

LS AzZkIkr

What are your plans for the next step? Mine is a 81mm lsvtec, GSR cams, victor X intake, inlinePRO T4 mani and in desperate need of a re-tune.

boostedteg909

well my nxt immediate plans r fuel pump, dsm 450 injectors chip nd tune. after that i plan goin lsv nd all supportin upgrades nd a re-tune
