The next time I remove these turbos, it will be to put a single on. That has nothing to do with performance, but because of simplicity when installing and maintaining. It is ridiculously time consuming to maintenance based on engineering design. I do believe both twins and single turbo set ups are fine.

Tomei manifold impacted power curve. Next

Sure. I just posted them in the GTIII-SS topic. We ran seven pulls on dyno packs. I'm not arguing BB vs JB here. That is subjective, regardless. I'm arguing that they aren't "junk". Same goes for "twins in the bin" talk. Basically, go and tell all of Japan and the US that their cars are trash because your nation's tuners have decided on such. It's nonsense because this "my way or it's trash" that gets peddled on here is tiresome. Of course I expect pushback when it's 5-7 years of an echo chamber. It's like the MAF vs MAP conversation. From an installation perspective having did all the work myself and never bringing my GTR to a mechanic in five years, single is the preferred option. I won't argue that. But driveability and "fun", I prefer the twins. And no, the Motive video with a borderline PRP salesman saying "this is better" won't convince me.

Good. glad to know we feel the same way about each other. I created an account to share some info, not battle the Australian single-turbo hivemind/echo chamber. Have fun!

Congrats on being experts on ONE chassis. Now bow down to GM and Ford for even branching out to your continent. Anyway, I'm not going to go tit for tat with you. Got some ex-military buddies out there in AU and don't want to give off the impression that I dislike Australians. Twin scroll single conversions are not the end all be all because some dude from Motive who makes videos said so.

Josh, I'm on stock internals and landed 332kw atw on dynopacks. I also didn't expect to make anything over 300kw based on Midori dynopack results from Japan on 34s not netting anything higher than 380-410whp.

Finally dyno'd the GTR. Results as follows: 446rwhp (332rwkw) / 387ftlbs @ 18psi, 433rwhp/363ftlbs @ 17.4psi, 330rwhp @ wastegate pressure 12.4psi all on 92 octane pump, decided not to push past 18psi. Fine with the Tomei manis impacting spool time. Really fun to drive.

Um, yeah. No. I have GTIII-SS turboes. Just dynoed on Sunday. 446rwhp/387ft-lbs @ 18psi/1.24bar. Very fun to drive. Busted my hump putting her together. Impressed by the turboes. The JB and single turbo nonsense Australians are infamous for needs to die on the vine.
