If ur car standard, original BOV is enuff laa..unless u set boost higher than factory setting, then changed to aftermarket BOV to protect your 'siput'..

You can get them directly from Roy or Tony but also from another shop in Sri D'sara. This friend of mine owns a workshop and is quite experience in engine. If interested, PM me. I'll pass you his contact.

1) Boost- You know how healthy the turbine is
2) Oil Temp - If you're oil coolers work
3) Water Temp - Radiator can cope or not
4) Ext Temp - To check if you're running rich or lean (by the way rich is safe just dont run lean)

Get a turbo timer. Use any good ol oil you like just get it serviced often as blowby leaves lots of dirt in oil. Good oil filter. Hope this helps.

Noob question: What is blowby and how does it leave dirt in oil? You talkniga bout engine oil right?

Look after your turbine??

I think most probably you'll need a boost and exaust temp. For water temp., you current meter indication should be sufficient. You might want to consider using fully synthetic engine oil. Try Q8 engine oil. Seems to be very good on my car.

Look after your turbine, and engine oil change freq. If you keep your car stock, it should be running smoothly all the time.

Look after your turbine?? How to check it, kong or not? i use standard tdo4 twin fin.


I want ask:

- Big turbin? Positive & Negative comment needed. :)

- What usually GSR user do to maintain their engine. I mean DIY service&check up at home.

- What spec that increase high boost 1.0 > ? Small budget. :)

- Best plug cable for GSR? with market price.

evolancer:
looks like we are on the same boat.....just converted to gsr..hehe....well, this is what i am gonna do...changing to hks ssqv bov(nicer sound and can take higher boost), changing air filter(current one is the air-box and using it u won't even get any bov sound bcoz of air limitations), turbo timer(must la...if not how to cool the oil?unless u wanna sit in ur car for about 1-2mins after u hv parked ur car??hehehe), adjustable suspensions(probably hotbits or hwl)u'll need good control of ur car and not just power, boost meter. for now that's it.:)

oneGSR:
there is no small budget for boosting up to 1.0 bar. u'll definitely need extractor change, turbo change, injectors change, fuel pump, i/c and etc..etc...but dun regret after doing it.:). best plug? i think they are the same for any engine but i think volker spark plugs are quite good...they are sold in speedworks. bigger turbine meaning u will need external wastegate(correct me if i am wrong all sifus who are reading) coz if u hv lots coming in, u'll need something to push them out. if not it will be too rich and there comes lag.

not only gsr cars are maintained like that but ALL turbo cars are mantained like that. for best maintainence, every 4000km change black oil. currently i am using motul. not too bad ler....and u must be very on time for ur servicing. coz turbo cars have powerfull boost. therefore, timing belt is an important issue here...keep checking if there is black oil lor....dun do crazy boosts if not it'll start leaking and that time u'll start to curse and regret. good pipping may help like probably stainless steel pipping.

well...i guess better stop here..hahahaha....damn tired and may end up "crapping" more....:p..chao dude and good luck

for gsr increase boost to 1 bar, i think u just need to install manual boost controller which costs rm200-300

ya but that may stress ur turbo and may lead to many problems after that.....what i mentioned may be the safest way but more expensive la....hehe

cheers

Expensive? how expensive? show me list of market price. i plan to use tdo5, now i standard tdo4 twin fin. I'd already use IC vr4rs, stainles piping to Hyper Dragger, exedy clutch racing, and another thing is all stock standard. what else i want to do? still newbies in turbo. :)

since u got vr4 i/c u stick with that lor...u'll need wastegate, bigger turbo(td05 or td06), injectors, fuel pump...may cost up to RM4k i think. wah...u got vr4 i/c on ur td04? no lag meh? i was told that there might be lag one wor...

cheers
