Nice setup just like how i wanna do mine.
Lots of people rekon the gt35/40 turbo is perfect for a 5l.
Does it see fullboost by 3000rpm?

i havent realy been up it coz i dont want to root the motor but , ive seen 3psi at 2000rpm and thats not even with my foot down , thats only just touching the throttle, so it should be well on to full boost by 2500-3000rpm once its tuned

 

[vp_304]

nice just what i want. How long till its tuned? Dont go over 10psi on standard headgaskets as you will do a a headgasket.
Dont listen to anyone that says the turbo is 2 small it should pull hard to 5000 5500 on a standard 5l.

yeah i agree i recon its perfect for the stock engine anyway only time will tell , i orded a alloy radiator off ebay and it rocked up this arvo, and its actually very good quality

 

[v8_bomberdore]

i got the radiator in today, had to trim a bit more off the thermo fans , this time i sealed the thermos with sikaflex around the raditator , so it can only suck through the radiator and no where else , it makes a big difference and u cant here the thermos anymore

 

[vp_304]

any reason for changing the radiator was the stock one strugling to keep the temps down with the cooler and air con condenser mounted infront of it?

 

[v8_bomberdore]

Nah the stock one was fine but I thought it wouldn't hurt to change it specially
to replace it with something new and better and it didn't
cost that much
