Hi everyone!!

I've been reading the forums for a long time now, but this is my first post. I was wondering if there was a tutorial on how to install the spider turbo. Did I miss one, or does someone have one that's not on here?

Thanks

What exactly does the turbo do? I know how car turbos work (sort of).

It is not a turbo at all. It is an external FET upgrade so that you can increase motor amp draw without frying the stock FET's.

I see, thanks.

Re: Does anybody have a spider turbo install tut?

...but, in opinions, are they worth it?

I have no access to Nelly's atm and was considering the new spyder as well.

I have liths/lipos on my cars and some 25t motors.

I am not looking to fry anything...but, was trying to weigh out why I might want/need the spyder.

It's more of a security issue preventing frying I guess...but, I feel like I might be missing something.

I've read up on specs as far as nelly and stacked nelly, etc. but, please let me know if I am missing something critical other than not frying to stock FETS.

TY>

I love that cat. It's like "What kind of mouse is this?" Then it's like "WTF? Mate!", then it's like "Get away from me, meow."

Love the cat mate, pretty big too.... Mine's better:

Re: Does anybody have a spider turbo install tut?

that turbo looks huge. it's gonna flip every time you turn hard.
i don't really like turbos. the only ones i would get would be nelly or v2.2

other than that, id stick with FET stacking

It is supposed to let you use lower turn motors.

i have three of them, they get a bit warm on some motors,like on this evo with liths and a 23turn by me

as you can see it was pretty undrivable :lol:
but the turbo survived and the motor is still run on a car with a spider and 4aaa's no probs
so unless you are running 7.2v and a super hot motor you will be fine :D

AWW THE PUDDY CAT IS SOOOOOOOO CUTE :mrgreen: I LIKE CATS :D

If you look you'll notice I didn't call you a liar, I was just asking for some facts to support the claim that it is the worst turbo ever created.

Why? Have you tried it? Or do you know someone that has? Give some facts to support this please, I'm tired of peopling slamming stuff without facts or knowledge to back it up.

Its been around for while now, I can remember back when I 1st came here, that most ppl didnt like it.
