AGP L2R

[rubbersidedown]

I guess this question is targeted mostly at the people who own the AGP L2R. I'm curious, about how much boost are most of you running? And how long does it take the turbo to spool? What's the difference between the T04B and the T04E compressor housings? I'm considering possibly buying this turbo and so i want as much info as i can get. So anyone other information that i didn't ask for would also be appreciated but the questions i listed are the main ones i need answered. thanks.

im curently trying to decide on an AGP l2r or FPgreen...

im running 20lbs.. as for spool my car isnt tuned right as of yet so spool still isnt there but basically it starts spooling around 3600 and im hitting full boost right at 4000.. the thing spools insanely fast once it actually starts spooling and it holds boost between shifts so there is no lag at all..

the t04b is a better fit then then the t04e but the to4e is slightly larger.. the intake is 3" on the e and 2 3/4 on the b.. I do believe the e flows just a little bit more.

I'm trying to decide Green or T3/T4. I'm not so concerned with spool, since I don't plan on autocrossing, and I'm not worried about my low end on the street. I don't know enough about full garrett setups to make a decision. I'd like good power on pump gas, but that's not my primary concern. I'm going to call FP and see what their advice is on my setup.

Thats your best bet man call around Fp, agp Try a couple places they are sure to help you out. Then make your decision.

I have the L2R w/ E comp. housing. I opted to use a spacer plate, so I did not have to dent the water pipe. Im running 20lbs, as of now. And my car is very well tuned(Just got some logging done yesterday) Seeing full boost by about 3700-3800. Instant spool between shifts. Was able to get to the track last week. I did a 13.1 @ 110.4mph. That # does not seem so impressive. But that was with a 2.13".(I was there alone, and it was the first time running the car in months. So I didnt want to break) With a better 60", say 1.7, that time would easily be a 12.3-12.5. This was at 20psi, pretty well tuned(maybe a tad rich due to the race gas), and, of course, without nitrous.

With the L2R in a 1G with a good amount of tunning, could they hit 11s depending on the driver?

 

[GSX4LIFE]

People have already gone 11s on the L2R. There is a guy on DSMTalk, that has a 95 GST. He recently went 11.9 @ 117.9mph, on drag radials. I think he was running 24psi. Thats why this turbo is so nasty. It doesnt even achieve full efficiency until your over 20psi. Im gonna try probly 23-25 next time I go. So to answere your question, yes. It will go 11s on a 1G or 2G with good tuning. Im sure it will go 10s very soon.

AGP- :xnuts: -some other places

Two AWD L2Rs and one FWD L2R have run 11s.

I read your mod list and that is pretty horribly number. Am i the only one who thinks that you should be running a whole lot faster w/ all the work you've had done to your car? I dunno.. maybe its just me.

-edit- sorry, i didn't catch that part right away where you said you weren't running it too hard. So it makes a bit more sense now.

 

[GSX4LIFE]

hey Ben, hows it going? Hey I have my old T25. The turbie housing is no good, but the comp housing and center section are good. You want me to send it to you? Its not doing me any good. Thought maybe you coul use it for a T28.

HEHE. I was waiting for the first person to mention that. You obviously dont know that much about times and trap speeds. Check out www.dsmtimes.org Look at all the cars running anywhere from 12.3-12.6. What do you see in common? *side note* 60's are everything!

People who don't race much, do not understand this concept!

well you're right. i don't race much. and good job repeating exactly what he said einstein.

Thank You very much! And the last time I checked I do live in AMERICA. Where I do have the "freedom" of speech.

GSX4LIFE:

I have a serious question for you. Would you say that the major advantage of the L2R other then efficiency and flow. is spool between shifts? I was under the assumption that initial spool would be a tad quicker than my 50?

The AGP turbo from what I hear is a great turbo that hits full boost surprisingly quickly. It's numbers are better than that of the Green. But until I see it come close to the times that the FP turbo is running 1/4 mile wise, I'll get a Green over an l2r.

I don't think I said anything offensive, so no need for a lock.

no but that type of post invites venders.... oops i mean members that are actually venders or vender fans. to start flame wars, myself included. i don't understand what you need to see. the l2r flows more then a green, and spools quicker between shifts then a green. what more do you need. you don't need some anonymous bone head to run 9's on NAAAAWS to help you choose you're turbo. be a man and get the GT30 hybrid. i like mikes since he offers it with the native tso4 comp housing plus he is a very nice guy, and is here to help everyone not just potential customers.

 

[rubbersidedown]

you didn't say anything offensive but you're kind of getting off the topic of what the original thread was about. And as for ILOSE, i didn't say you don't have the freedom of speach and i didn't make any referance as to where you live. I was just commenting that you did nothing but waste a post by repeating exactly what the person before you said. No reason to get all offended. Just it would be nice if added something that was more relavant to the topic. Sorry if i offended you. I would also like to say thank you to all of those who had useful info on the turbo i was inquiring about. I've made my decision so the thread might as well be locked cause everyone is getting off topic anyway. Thanks again

If you find someone who has street car running nines. No wait, if you find ANY dsm running 9's with an l2r then I think the Green would be a thing of the past. As for the question of do I need to see someone actually do what the Green already has? Yes.

By all means I'm not saying that the Green is a better turbo but there's no substitute for what's already proven. If I get a Green and a week later someone makes a pass that's a tenth of a second faster than the quickest pass by a Green, then fine, but I won't regret my decision.
