The sifu has spoken...hi paranoid_android ....
if your evo block still in good condition.... no need lah replace it with vr4.... evo block can handle.. no prob... why you wanna push yr turbo to the limit?? no good lah...
better put yr money upgrade yr td05 to 20g or find new good turbo... bullseye maybe...
standalone no need lah for minor upgrade..... just emanage blue + ignition harness ok already..
ensure enough fuel & proper tune ...
However, According to people whom used TD05 with 20g fin also some lesson from Tong turbo, 20g is way oversized for what the housing is capable of delivering. Performance range is within 1.2 bar. Anything higher will choke the housing.
Normally it's the pistons that fails. not the block brudder. BTW, a front wheel drive >350WHP is not easy to handle. If u have LSD, things are better. But still, it's not something fun to drive except for straight road.hurmm, maybe I will do that, put evo piston in vr4 blok and I will be using evo head. Just dont know how much machine shop will charged to fit that evo piston into vr4 rod u have evo piston lying down? I assume evo lsd gearbox at Alvin workshop is yours? I'm buying it from mell but have no time to pick it up yet..

I'm just afraid evo block cannot stand 1.6bar of tdo5.. from what I read, evo can stand until 1.3bar only.. U got experience evo block 400hp bro? hope u can share..
no budget for new turbo bro and I just want to keep my engine below 400hp.. as for standalone, for me its a good investment for future upgrade plus I can extract few more potential of tdo5..I already using e-manage blue..
Bro nan83, if I'm not mistaken, panaroid_android is using TD05 16g from EVO 3 with bigger compressor wheel.
