We have had nothing but good results with PTEs BB turbos. I personally will be running one on my project car. I like the simplicity of only having only oil feed and return. The GT/GTX units get really cramped fast with all 4 lines.

+1. Getting those coolant lines in place so they don't touch either the hotside or compressor housing can be a tedious affair depending on how you route the coolant lines. Though it seems that I had more trouble with my 30r on my STi than this 28. Not sure if theres more room or just maybe the setup, since nothing was v band on the 30r. Sure is nice not having to try to get things bolted down while clocking the turbo, making sure the bolts holding the compressor on aren't interfering with the oil drain, then trying to tighten it all...that was such a pain.

If I don't end up swapping this engine out in the future I will definitely end up tucking it like @Jesse@JDLAutodesign did. I'd have done it already if @Chase Bays would ever release their tucked engine harness Last edited by xxscaxx; 07-09-2015 at 01:17 PM. |

It depends on if you have to extend wires. On my STi, it was apart for quite some time...I relocated the ABS unit (which required removing all the hard lines from the bay and rebending them/rerouting them) which took the most time. I didn't do a full "complete" tuck but you couldn't see most of the wiring in my bay and fortunately the Fuse box could be relocated without extending wires. The only wire I had to extend was my alternator. Jesse posted a picture up of his wire tuck (http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...5&postcount=88), you will see how extensive it was. Its a reason why I want to buy an already made harness

Welp, not doing that then. If it's a crazy amount of time just for that, I'll pass.
