Hi All, As per topic, sometime early next year I will be looking to have my T3 Hi Flowed. Just after some places you recommend who do a good job and what sort of price they ask for? As for the spec, im not to sure at this stage, but I am look to get around 200rwkw out of it.

I would say ATS or ATP..... Kyp from ATP doesnt really deal with people off the street (ask yourself how many people that have watched 2F2F that ring him to turdbo their car etc), so when you speak to him he might be alittle bit aggressive and itimidating, but he definately knows his turbos.

Dyson Rotary, Mine was $1350. I'm pretty impressed with how it pulls on 10psi, should be fun on 18psi. Regards Scott

Dennis at P.E.T Mods (9464-4225) has some good combos on offer for street VLs.

It really all comes down too the amount of money you have to spend and which workshop is friendliest. If I was to ring ATP and he was aggresive to me I would hang up and try the next place. Everybody recommends different workshops as they have had good service from that particular one, starting this thread will create more confusion in your mind. BTW I'll chuck another workshop in, Mahnkens Turbotune- $800 for them to highflow your turbo with sierra wheels.

Thanks for your responses peoples! Really appreciate it. But yeah I agree with RB3-747. If some guy hung up on me or spoke down to me id tell him to shuv it. Mahnkens Turbotune, where abouts is that? And what sort of hiflow would I need to get around 200rwkw?

So can you tell me where PET gets there turbos rebuilt, a mate of mine got a hi-flow from PET after his other tullamarine built turbo **** itself at 21psi and the turbo was only a few months old. We have'nt boosted the new PET turbo yet because the car is still in the paintshop. Hopefully it will hold together after another $1,200. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

boys, a V & O trims will not get u 10s as BLUEY did, and they are not all that big to be honest. Red RB30 Jet, i believe P.E.T Mods gets their turbos done with Roto-Master, and i might say that they do a fine job as the one that was on my car was A1 and made 221rwkw on 16-17psi on a 2L engine.
