GB: Garrett GT2860's

[NismoS-tune]

I ordered the same as you. You'll see more power than me as I didn't go all out on this build... I might see 450hp at the crank. When the market reaches firmly over 95 cents (to USD) I'll surely go for Carillo/cosworth internals since the JPY is not where I want it to be.

That's a good plan, I hadn't even considered the exchange rate.
Does cosworth actually machine parts for the RB26? Is there a parts dealer you know that has access, or some online vendor?

My car is currently developing ~150hp with broken ceramics and oil leaking into the exhaust. Bought the car last month and I'm trying to get it up to spec, all the thoughtful mods have been made already (oil pump, oil filter relocation, new ABS, large FMIC, buying a tuned PFC today, all fluids replaced, timing belt, 3.5" exhaust, full tein suspension package, calcium battery). Planning on a 350whp build capable of 14s, and drives around town.

I can also get you any Carrillo or Cosworth parts you might want.

Any chance to post the tracking numbers? I'd asume based on the info that they were shipped a weeks after the payment dates?

[JNS Performance]

Hey,

Mczues is making payment today and turbo's will be shipped out monday, they all arrived at my dropship location on thursday. He would prefer to ship them all out at once!

[RGB]

McZeus get your act together! I want my turbos

[JNS Performance]

Turbos received!
They looks great, solid packaging. Very happy
I'll post some pics as soon as I find my USB cable.

[Wedge]

You guys were lucky since the dollar just fell back down to 86 cents on the 23rd . Keep us posted on the results of these turbos .

[Oakville]

If someone has the patience, can you let me know how the -5s and -7s work? I am trying to understand the world of turbos and I need to start somewhere. google has done nothing for me in this.

noob cry for

[NismoS-tune]

Still waiting for my tracking number... Anyone else out of the loop or haven't received turbos or tracking number? Paid in full since June 6th...

[RGB]

Sorry to hear that Nis! My turbos were shipped on 06/26. It was shipped from Titan Motorsports in Florida. Ben and Braden were in Cuba for two weeks, but they should be home now.

It might be better that you had to wait....
Braden/Ben I was wondering if you could give me a call. I sent my phone number to your sales email account. I opened up my second turbo and found out that the wastegate actuator is WELDED! If I didn't notice and installed it, I would have blown up the engine

Anyhow, I'm looking to get a new one shipped out on warranty due to manufacturer's defect.

Wow, thats terrible quality control.

I also tried contacting JNS but no luck seems they are still out of the country.

[JNS Performance]

Hey guys,

Back now, Titan drop ships products for us. As most companys won't to canada.

Franc I was told your turbo's would be shipped monday june 29th. But I don't think that happened.

Anyone who needs to speak with me please shot me a PM.


----------------------------

Rob, if you can take some pictures I will have this sorted out for you asap. I can't believe that!

[RGB]

Hi Braden,
Thanks for the quick action. I've actually been in talks directly with Eric at Titan and we're sorting it out. I sent pictures to Eric, and they offered to ship out a fresh exhaust housing tomorrow and pay for shipping. But that won't be necessary:

It turns out the welded sleeve was stuck to something. Once we took a pair of vice grips to the actuator arm and pulled the *star* out of it, it broke free and now the wastegate moves very smoothly.

Long story short, maybe it shouldn't be legalized.
