Started by GMHTT · 15 Apr 2009 · 75 replies

Preserved from CalaisTurbo (partial recovery). Original authors and dates are shown; archived members are not current Holdcom accounts.

exactly gmhbt1- this was by far the harder option, people do not understand the time and money that has gone into this car. I cant wait till you crack that 9 shaun cause you well deservant of it! Also theres no point in calling for one of these, if the owner and builder of this car wont reveal specs i cant see jpc building one identical Ive said it a million times dont turn this thread into a t3 spec thread, the whole point of it was obviously to inform fellow vlt/racing enthusiats of the achievment of this immac presented vlt and to congratulate the owner.

35psi through that little turbo is unbelievable 9s with a highflow is epic, will definately be in my top 10 vls if it gets there congrats to the owner and jpc, just goes to show these guys know how to build a turbo of epic proportions

if jpc wont sell this turbo to other ppl its a bit pointless as they prob would sell a sh!t load of them

prob not mate, it would cost double the ammount to build a turbo similar to this compared to a 35/40, so why wouldnt people just go 35/40

exactly this is probably a one off type build with a lot of time effort and man hours to perfect it could be quite costly which is all the more reason not to give out the specs.

Yeah not too many people wake up in the morning and decide they want a t3 turbo to get over 300rwkw thats for sure(and the rest). 'whats it running' ohh just a t3

id spend 3000 on this t3 if i was guerenteed that power id sell my gt35r straight away! imagine going to EPA LOL! no problems! cops wouldnt touch u either! its the ultimate! why bother high mount with custom plenum and exhaust manifold with external when you can just have this! id definetely give jpc 3000 if not more for this turbo!

JPC would build this turbo for anyone, but it's not cheap and unless you want to make over 300rwkw while retaining the standard looking turbo plus take the car to the track on race fuel then the normal high flow that JPC do for 1300ish dollars is all you need

well they must have had problems with the tranny fluid overheating from the exhaust housing.... i can now see why it made more sense to mount it further back
