What you guys reckon i should get?

RSR, RS 0.64? RSR with a bigger trim?

Ross

Modify to an RSR and you'll be good for another 20bhp+ without too much sacrifice

Go for an RS - 0.64.....

What about an RSR with 63 trim?

Ross

As suba said.

It feels good

To avoid starting another thread, would a crap induction kit, stop power at the top end?

Ross

depends on how freeflowing it is. The more restrictive it is the worse for top end, but may improve the bottom end a bit...

BTW my opinion is an RSR is much better than an RS

I was considering an RS, what makes the RSR much better?

It's got an extra letter.

Better spool up.

If you are into that kind of thing, which i get the impression Ross is

I would rather get the torque surge as low down the rev range as possible, but I dont mind if it takes a second to spool up when you suddenly floor it, if that makes sense...

much more responsive, much less on/off. I don't like the RS at all though and having driven cars with both I would always go RSR. I think you would go faster point-to-point 95% of times with an RSR, the only time you wouldn't is in a straight line

which RS cars have you driven John?

I find my RS is very progressive, by the time you hit peak power traction issues have dissapeared.

The RS is good for slow in fast out on track as well, much less frantic wheelspinning exits

exactly as Barbz said to me...he basically TOLD me i was not getting an RS!!!..................he said the fastest `road coupes` he drove where always ones that where `properly sorted` and running RSR`s

ive got an RSR thats covered 3k miles coming up forsale soon with all the fittings and a 3" downpipe

Is your turbo on the way out? If not, leave the fccukin' thing alone!

Thanks for the advice so far.

Ross

That's what I'll be doing until I go forged!

Drove Barbz car with an RS and a one of his customers cars when I was down there. Also driven both the GT28RSR and the GT28R on headwork. The headwork does make the RS less on/off but I think it is a very poor match for the engine. The whole idea of getting a upgraded turbois to match the engines characteristics and I believe the RS would also suit a longer stroke engine better (like the 16VT) than the 20VT engine.

Wheres the best place to get a RSR then?

What did you think of the R with headwork John?

Ross

i think the only way to get an RSR now, is to speak to turbo dynamics or to buy and "R" and then get an "RS" compressor wheel fitted by turbo dynamics or speak to me about the one im selling soon

Ross

Yeah very good. I drove Sheikhs car which was 344BHP at relatively low boost as far as I rememeber.

I think Barbz will still sell you an RSR - email him at torqueitalia@yahoo.co.uk

thats what I had before,bloody good

I think the 28R with headwork is terrible.....

I agree

Ross.....you are losing it.

You have a great car, with plenty of power...why not save that cash and buy a track day toy instead?

(my votes with an RSR if you must)
