Hey guys.

Good news! I have been able to secure myself a pair of TD04s for nothing :D

My mechanic who has been mates with my fiance forever has a shed full of Mitsi stuff that he needs to get rid of and he wants nothing for them so I'm not going to pass the opportunity up. He says they're fine to use straight away but I'll probably be sending them for a rebuild anyway just so i can be sure everything internally is present and correct.

So what else do i need for a TD04 upgrade? I've already got the bigger intercooler (280x600x76), Walbro 255l Fuel pump, upgraded fuel rail adapter (all done before i bought it).

nothing has ever been said about injectors, so I'm assuming I'm going to need to do something about those?

Also, as much as Steve is the God of VR4 tuning, i won't be going back to Sydney for a tune, so if anyone has any recommendations in terms of Victorian tuners that would be a bonus.

So if you can give me a list of what I'll need or point me in the direction of a link that contains such that'd be awesome.

Going e85 as well Mel? Shouldn't need to upgrade injectors if sticking to 98.
@Smurph up here has a big single on 98 pushing 250kw on standard injectors.

Otherwise go to id1000.

Edit: Symond is NOT running standard injectors.

I know if Steve does a tune run near you Mel, he has in for on both id1000 and SARD 650 injectors (I have those)

nah sticking to 98 - we still don't have E85 on the pump here yet so no point and it's my mummy wagon so I have to have some sort of sensibility (for now) haha.

With TD04's you will most definatly need tk upgrade injectors. Around the 600cc mark will see you well into 300kwatw.for TD04s you need all the obvious stuff like exhaust manifolds, dump pipes, down pipes, oil and water lines, either new intercooler pipong or mod the old stock ones to fit. A 3 port boost control solenoid is also a very wise idea too. Whats your goal with the TD04 upgrade? How much power do you wanna make and what model TD04's are they?

Ooh! I already have the boost solenoid wired into the ECU too. :D cheering!

@6A13TT TYPE S ideally i'd like to add 100kw to what i have - 181atw. but i know that's probably gonna take a hefty amount of work to get to 280awkw

Carl here in NZ has made 315kw atw with a pair of TD04-13T's, a set of my cams, 560cc injectors, walboro fuel pump, water methanol injection kit and 600x300 FMIC and he tuned it himself. 280kw should be acheiveable without the water methanol kit as long as your tuner is on the ball. Search my "forged engine build pictures" thread to see photos of carls TD04 manifolds. And again what kind of TD04'S do you have

does anyone who has done the mods sell TD04 kits? or is it all up to the individual to fab stuff?

There is 1 company in NZ called race fab. They do manifolds. But require mods to fans and a
Few other things. And still need dumps.

Other than that I couldn't even give a timeframe for my manifolds in development, and are going through a redesign.

Give Cihan Etuner a buzz, he worked on my car as his first vr4 and the results are unreal! He mainly works on Supras and Skylines but works wonders for our cars, really knows what tuning is. He might be in Sunshine once a week with Edge motor works. Check his website out first.
