jims13 6 Posted June 19, 2009 Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 schimmel if your in the states, he also sells everthng you need, and there customer service is second to none.why not go for a t o4 e , like mine, i believe its similar in to a gt35.. or trawl through some compressor maps, and go from there Link to post Share on other sites

golfrabbit33 0 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 its all about the weak dollar at the mo. make a list of what you need and get it state side, anything you cant get, c2 will get over here. after lots of playing around with turbo, i would advise using a .82 housing. i have the .63 which spools too quick and a 106 that takes forever to spool up. so bang in the middle suits most needs. plus if your in the US, why not try to get a garrett for the same £ that you would get a copy at home.and dont go anywhere near EIP i heard nothing but bad from them.as jim said schimmel`s service is what counts, i would go there mate.

lowvr 0 Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 .82 is what a lot of people (people who have actually built vrT) seem to recommend so i will definately go down that routei did want to stick to the garretts as theyre quality relaly speaks or its self but like a said i cant afford the gt35r so im lookingat alternatives - but the kind of alternative that would be considered more of a bargain, the kind of item that properly letsme take advantage of buying from the statesim not looking for a "big power" setup just something conservative (i dont think any decently built vrT will be slow lol) - just something that is going to be relaibe and able to withstand a good beating Link to post Share on other sites
