not all bad .. yes they are different a little but u will have a faster spooling turbos but u may just notice the power may be a little flatter at top end

They will still bolt on. iirc the spool up quicker than manual ones to make up for the slow all auto box :lol:

i just think its just cuz your welsh ..

got a friend from down there ( llantrisant )and he talks really sloooooooooooooooooooooooow lol

The only way to really tell is to take them apart and see, there isn't any markings on the outside iirc. tbh, You'll be fine with auto tubs on a manual. There isn't really any difference in performance in the real world.

i doubt it m8 .. most drivers would of fitted/recon auto tubs as the Manual ones would be to lazy for the auto box

Ah they for my track car so i dont really want to be going back in power. I may try send them on, is there any turbos on off a skyline, silvia that would be an improvement on standard turbo that would bolt on and fit the 4 bolt downpipes really should of asked before i spent my money

t25 from skyline s13/14 use the same tubs .. but the problem u will have is they use one sided tub setup

the z32 needs left/right ... the passenger turbo needs to be clocked by 60deg and will need a different actuator bracket fitted

as it sits at a 45* angle to the wast gate flange

if u look at the tubs u have there u will see what im talking about

It isnt a power difference, its a spool up difference, on the Auto they spool up quicker but loose the top end.

 

you get quicker acceleration with the auto turbo s, but are about 10mph slower at full whack.

So il only feel it a the very top end eg. 5th gear or will it drop off thru all the gears, will i still be pulling to redlind in lower gears

through gears up to red line as the tubs will spool sooner to give u more lower end RPM grunt but will run out of steam high up the rpm range ,,,,

Ah get u now, its really just one turbo that on the way out the passenger side would it be ok to use 1 manual nd 1 auto turbo?
