I just can't get over how fucking amazing this kit sounds.

TD05 18g variant; AVO 18/49 turbocharger. Compressor wheel size 49.2/56 | Exhaust wheel size 50.5/68

It looks like the wheel sizes are back to front?

Because if they are, it makes this turbo a dead on copy of a t518z 8cm....

Not sure if this was missed or not, but can it be confirmed?

Thanks

I'll check with the factory if it got swapped around. If so, I'm sure if they copied us it was because it's a good setup.

lol, good sense of humour too.

Since we are on the topic of the turbos, what other choices do we have if we decide to change/upgrade in the future?

Apologies if this is noobish as I've only ever had experience with the garret lines due to the RB26..

You don't have the 5 yr powertrain warranty? You may have a longer wait than you planned!

AVO Turboworld Japan just finished up the 2013 RevSpeed Hypermeet at Tsukuba Circuit. Our regular pro driver, Yoshida-san, was busy with other commitments, so Ross Wilson, AVO Japan's president, drove the turbocharged BRZ in the Street time attack segment and placed 4th overall, 3rd of the BRZ's and GT86's/FR-S.

The 1st was the Tilton EVO 9 open class world time attack car? If so, then yeah they don't count, they are at a different class altogether.
Apart from that, you had the second fastest top km/h and only 0.048s behind the second car so must've just been handling setup? Pretty good effort! Literally second.

Can't read jap so who were the ZN6s that came before you?

DriftEightSix · 04-07-2013, 11:05 PM

Love this list!!

Look at all the ZN6/ZC6's!!! Lol.
