Gt2052 - sherman306 - 11-02-2014
What's the best car to get a Gt2052 off of?
RE: Gt2052 - Piggy - 11-02-2014
There isnt one really...
Do some googling and you'll find loads
RE: Gt2052 - sherman306 - 11-02-2014
Ok and what does the v stand for after some of the ones on ebay
RE: Gt2052 - Piggy - 11-02-2014
:facepalm:
Stands for VNT. Variable nozzle turbo. Basically second gen GT turbos with vanes that open and shut controlled by solenoid/actuator and a computer somewhere onboard.
Or aftermarket mech control, boost can or complex adruino control...stick with a GT****s basically!
use this website to help ya search

But I suggest some research and reading about the GT series of turbos before you take the plunge with a GT2052

RE: Gt2052 - 306Puggy - 12-02-2014
What's been with all of the GT friggin' 20 threads we have been having recently? There's about a 1000 of them. They've become popular since I started my project based off Ruan's suggestion (which I actually read back in 2012 but didn't have the funds to do it). I didn't know every man and his dog was gonna be in on the action

I think there was at least 2 people who had them fitted before you.
RE: Gt2052 - Tom - 12-02-2014
Bear in mind this is a community of xud owners. So it might seem like alot of people have them, but we already have the same car, and in reality 4 owners that are on the forum and then however many thousand are still on the roads. And again i bet half these threads are people that probably have no intention of fitting one at all.
RE: Gt2052 - zx_volcane - 12-02-2014
What can we say Puggy?
You're a trend setter, a maveric, a fashion arbiter.
A goddamn inspiration to all of us!
But be warned its a thankless job, and although they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I'm sure it gets your goat that other people are even considering a gt20 before you've finished getting yours on.
You will, however, always be thought of as 'the father of the gt20'd xud' in our collective hearts

I know lol it just irritated me that the thing I am still doing is suddenly the new fad when it used to be "td04 plz kthxbai" when I started the project.

Yeah as above the types that had no intention of fitting anything used to be after TD04 info now they are all over the GT20 like flies to shit

Heh, this was a good post, just the right amount of snark. But Ruan is the true father anyway
RE: Gt2052 - Tom - 12-02-2014
Lots of talk about it, there arent many actually fitted.
RE: Gt2052 - Chris_90 - 12-02-2014
Unless you keep things secret people are going to follow, its a tried and tested turbo, nothing wrong with other people using the same turbo.......

This is why people dont disclose information about things, dont want to give away there hard work! Which is understandable imo.

It is but for puggy to come complain because other people are using the same turbo takes piss. It's a tried and tested turbo on the xud with a few people that have run it before him, it will probably become as popular as the td04 live with that puggy! Or go find a top secret turbo that you will spend years adapting it to fit and making a mess of it
RE: Gt2052 - Tom - 12-02-2014
Chris your just worried hes going to have his on before you

Couldn't give a toss tbh, I didn't mind puggy before tbh even tho there was daft questions but we all have to start some were, but to say why are so many other people useing the gt20 it takes the piss!
Any way if I fix my fail of valve clearances issue engine will be in this weekend so I win for fitting it first I guess
RE: Gt2052 - Piggy - 12-02-2014
To be a trend setter...do you not need to have at least FITTED the turbo?!!
