Gen3 turbos are a smidge bigger. If you're looking for a decent upgrade I'd look eleswhere.

ok so gen 3 turbo's will be a easy to do. But does anyone know what turbo's will get the best performances with the 1G. I have seen on the internet 1g-gte setup with to4, ct26, and vg30. But I have no idea which is best and works well with the 1G.

VG30 might work but the increases would be marginal. Don't bother with CT26. A late model BB T28 from a 200SX would be a nic budget upgrade, but a nice GT25 would be awesome. 200rwkw+ and boost response in some respects better than factory.

I was going to put V4 in but worked out its not worth that much money as i am only going to keep the stock turbos...I just wanted to know if you got less lag with the worf and any benefits you noticed when u had it installed and tuned...

I thought the VG30DET turbos were one of the best stock turbos you could get for a decent price? I would have thought that a Highflow CT26 would be decent to make some power but probably a bit laggy.

What is the power goal for this car and what do you use it for?

interested to know about the Wolf as well as I am about to get mine fitted to my 1jz.

It probably is, but it isn't going to be a huge upgrade over the CT12's. Sure, they're small, but there is two of them.

After speaking to a couple of people who've put a CT26 on a 1G, I've come to the conclusion that they offer no power increase over twin CT12's, with a penalty in lag, and when highflowed for sure they'll make more power, but be laggier again.

My Soarer GZ10 1985 originally had a 1GGE in it. I decided to upgrade the motor to 1GGTE. I brought the motor, wiring loom (not one of those cleaned up ones), and OEM ECU. I saw the wiring loom it was a mess, thats when i decided to go with a Wolf. It took 6 weekends to wire it up (doesn't help when your colour blind). The stuffing around we had to do just to get the bloody thing to run. I think the new Wolf v4 can handle the 1GGTE with out customising the dizzy. Overall, yes there is more power so i have been told by my mate who works on these things, but a bit laggy still.

One more thing the car isn't limited to 180km. In the Northern Territory we don't have speed limits yet on the open road.

Probably, as far as I can tell the injectors are at their limits once you reach the 180-200rwkw mark. Thankfully, 7MGTE injectors are a straight fit replacement.

What about twin ct26's...or something similar seeing as they're relatively old..? either that or a single gt30 maybe..?

Also, what size are the 7mgte injectors?

Whoa, can you imagine the power curve on that, it would be lucky to make full boost by 5-6000rpm! Some of the GT30's could be configured to work quite well, everything would be a compromise, if you are willing to sacrifice some bottom end you can get big power.

Multiplied by six, are you really going to need any more? How much power are you chasing?

Haha, just something that was suggested to me...it would be fair nuts tho if you could get it to spool up...

just out of interest aswell, what size are the standard 1g injectors? Aren't they only like ~200cc's?

What do you mean for now? If the 1G injectors can supply enough fuel for over 180rwkw, and the 7MGTE injectors are spot on double that, how much power could you be wanting?

13bt injectors plug in also, they are 550cc, cant remember if they are series 5 or4 though, they use the same plug as a series 2 1g injector plug, and slip straight in like a finger up a bum Very Happy

ddeane has over 220rwkw and he claims lag is little if any different to stock. That is with a variant of a GT25, so that'd be pretty damn awesome to me.

Re: 1GGTE turbo upgrade Wed, 10 November 2004 03:42 Go to previous messageGo to next message
how do 6 220cc injectors spray enough fuel for 180-200rwkw? AFAIK for a 6 cylinder engine the amount of cc per injector basically equals the amount of flywheel hp they can support eg. i got 550cc injectors because I am looking for around 550flywheel hp.

220hp @ fly doesn't equal 200rwkw Smile

is this incorrect?

I wouldn't have thought it was as simple as that, I was just basing it on the fact that above 180rwkw was where people started replacing the injectors.

Thanks mate you cleared it up for me .
I'm really very new to turbos and all this talk about lag and things like that.

But does anybody know if u can have "too big" injectors ?

Do yourself a favour an don't put the injectors in until the dyno graph says you need them.

I put them in while my engine was out and had to remove them due to overfulleing. The car would not run over 4500 rpm. You will need a form of fuel managment as well.

I have a T04e coming soon, hoping to get a relaible 200rwkw from the 1G.

YEp , i should have read the start again...
Wolf 3d.

Then a GT25 would be fantastic, saw this link earlier for GT28's ($1190) they may do a good price on 25's as well.

What should i really be looking for in a turbo? I don't know very much about them. Embarassed I have seen GT25 and GT28R like on that site, but the HP is 200-280hp. And i have also found turbos with 380+hp like same T3/T4.

Re: 1GGTE turbo upgrade Wed, 10 November 2004 22:22 Go to previous messageGo to next message
I don't claim to be an expert either.

The GT range of turbos are dual ceramic ball bearing, to promote earlier spooling. The hp rating is claimed at the flywheel, so expect a 30% loss to give your atw figure. Beware some sites claim different HP ratings to others so just double check. Its not just about the highest power produced, its more about where the power is produced in the rev range. If you can get a ballbearing turbo then its more likely to be early spooling. I think the T3/4 style are sleeve bearing. Nothing wrong with them, but they will spool later.
Hopefully someone else can add to this to help you pick the right turbo for your car.

A t04r or KKK K27 will be pretty damn laggy on a 1g. I chose not to get the t04r and one reason was too much lag on my 1jz (2.5L)

However, if is barely used on the street and only drag racing then I guess bigger is better Smile

Haha, as in Galant VR4? Good IC and exhaust with an aftermarket ECU, you should have enough of a weight advantage for the power to be a non issue. If someone can get 163rwkw from just an ECU, with a decent intercooler as well you should be able to put your car out of his reach Razz

The Gt25 sounds like a good option then. The earlier spooling the better, especailly when you are up against a awd!!

it bit lag.(I'm not sure if he done over from these.)
Good G and long boost But it broke already. Laughing
