ori evo gb da ratio is closer compare to gsr stock...so da evo gb pick up n response is good but crusing 5th gear rpm is higher

using stock turbine wt evo intercooler definetely turbo will lag abit...but juz abit i would say abt 100-200rpm late....n not 4k rpm.

ooo..like that...so i dont need to worry if i want use evo1 i/c lah?only 100-200rpm late,so that mean i can open the turbo when rpm reach 2.5k-2..8k rpm...fuhh...bcoz somebody told me if i'm using evo1 i/c it will be worst...turbo will open at 4k rpm.

so anybody have exp. using stock gsr turbo with evo1 i/c n evo1 g/b???

ok u using piping intercooler evo or not..if using intercooler evo setup piping.. that cause of lag happen..to long way piping if using std tdo4 gsr. Better rearrange piping line, use shorter way piping from turbine n intercooler.. I hope can reduse your lag..

Just my 3 cent ideas...bro

I've driven a TD04L GSR with EVO pipings+intercooler... doesn't feel laggy to me. I think its a personal preference maybe... in my opinion, the GSR still feels responsive with that setup.

Its kinda like if u see a guy who's 170cm tall.. then u ask people what u think of this guy's height? Some will say he's ok, some will say he's tall... maybe even some will say he's short.

So its more like... how 'laggy' does it take for you to consider if that setup is 'laggy'. Coz' needless to say... it WILL be laggier from the bigger intercooler... just that to me, i think its minimal... and still falls within my range of acceptance.

For all you know it might feel less laggy and more power... coz' after all, you ARE upgrading from a stock GSR intercooler... which btw uses a very long routed intercooler piping, and its intercooler is too small to barely cool anything.

1jz i/c can be super low profile. =Þ

Dowan to be low profile... also you WILL be wan... coz' the intercooler IMHO is ugly. hahahaha... so u'll surely spray it black wan! =Þ

It comes as black colour in its stock conditions also anywayz. haha...

it is true..
how come you ended up having an auto tranny halfcut?

let me brief you more with auto tranny and manual tranny

simple like this..

manual consist ecu to control engine management

but auto consist 2 ecu -one to control engine together with another to control auto gearbox

auto tranny also need to get signal from TPS( throttle position sensor) not like manual

turbo on the auto car and manual car are different as boost at different p.s.i
due to power band not to damage and reponse quickly to engine

using stock ecu from auto tranny after converting from auto to manual only cause car to be slower as ecu from auto tranny only set to reponse like auto tranny does..this can be sorted by re-mapping it,but not worth it.

its advisable not to convert anything as.. conversion always give headache..

like transplanting auto to manual seems easy,but its totally hard.

my advice-sell yer car off and get a better car

vr4 intercooler is lousy la. evo intercooler feels a bit laggier, but when the power comes, its really nicer than vr4.

i tried gsr std ic, 1jz ic, vr4 ic and evo3 ic. must say e3 ic offers the best kick.
