Not sure honestly, I dont think I've ever referred to it as a big turbo as I'd save that for things like the TTE535 etc. Guess it's just what some people call it as its bigger than the IS20, but yeah I wouldn't refer to it as a big turbo personally.

I personally think that the 7.5 R/Gti will hold it's own against the MK8 GTI/R it's just a really well designed car. The new one seems to look nice but I'm not so sure that it's a big leap forwards.. maybe the MK9 yes but I'll skip the MK8 this generation.

GREAT build, props. One question, the tte turbo you have should be able to push out 450hp easily. Why did you go with it? Since a stock IS38 can run 400hp just fine for a lot lot less money then the upgraded tte you have. With your supporting mods. Cheers
@willcasey74074 жыл бұрын
Capped at 400 because I havent touched fuelling yet. Once I can sort some new injectors and a high pressure fuel pump she'll be ready 👍
@willcasey74074 жыл бұрын
Also went for the TTE instead of a standard IS38 as I was gonna buy a used IS38 and have it rebalanced etc, by the time I'd done all that the work would have taken ages and not much less money than the TTE. Plus it comes with warranty! Glad you like the build mate ☺️

hampshirephoto okay, it’s basically a more reliable IS38 then because it’s just a standard IS38 with upgraded bearings? It sits below their hybrids so again, how is this considered to be a big turbo? Anything that uses the stock housing isn’t considered to be a big turbo in my view.

@willcasey74074 жыл бұрын
Big turbo compared to the IS20. It is by definition a bigger turbo, I mean if you compare it to the toddler sized ones on Supra's then fair enough it's not that big 🤣 stages are often defined by the tuning company, stage 3 often involves a change in turbo. MRC call it a stage 3 tune, so therefore its stage 3 by their definition 👍
@JacesOwnWorld4 жыл бұрын
Curlyjay 22 Revo is the only one that calls it a Stage 3. They do that for sales. Everyone else names it Stage 2.5. Just because Revo renames what it really is, doesn’t mean it is what they named it haha.
@JacesOwnWorld4 жыл бұрын
Will Casey sure, it is bigger, but everyone knows in the car enthusiast world, a big turbo is considered a non-OEM turbo, not a stock turbo replacement lol. So I guess a car is modified if someone puts a sticker on their car, because it’s no longer “stock” right?? Lol. That’s your logic. You’re actually wrong in your attempt to analyze what a Stage means for a car. Every car mas manufacturer has their own staging criteria. A Stage 3 Honda is different than a Stage 3 Audi, etc. Why is that? Because every manufacturer builds their cars differently. Some are N/A while others are boosted for example. Yes by Revo’s definition it’s Stage 3. But that doesn’t mean that if this dude pulls up to a VW meet, and starts telling everyone there that his MK7 GTI is Stage 3, and then people ask what’s done to it, and he says it’s an IS38 with a Revo simplistic tune (compared to a full custom tune through Maestro or Cobb AP), that nobody ISN’T going to laugh at him, and tell their friends how much of a poser he is. Haha
