Is this turbo any good? - GT-R Register - Official Nissan Skyline and GTR Owners Club forum

I have seen these turbos on ebay for some while now and wondered if anyone had any experience of them .

I have taken a much bigger interest lately as i am probably going to go the R34 GTT route for my rear wheel drive needs.

Would like to start with a fairly standard example and aim for 400-450bhp baring in mind i intend on drifting, will this turbo be too laggy?

Any help and advice would be much appreciated

If you are talking about the kits with the T60 that keep getting advertised then they have had a fair few slatings on here TBH.

You would probably get to about 380 - 390 comfortably with a rebuilt standard turbo as long as all the other bits were there to support. Mine was great fun and very responsive with that setup.
