Man those vids are schweeeet....... quick question thou... Any thoughts on how the KKR430 would perform on a RB25? You say the boost is great on the RB20.....just wondering if it would be a bit laggier on the RB25.....??

I would of thought it would be less laggier. Though i think the KKR480 would be better suited. I think Otomoto state they have gotten 260rwkw (could be wrong lon this figure) from the 480 on an RB25 neo

Thanks guys, yeah was a typo with the KKR480 / KKR430. IObviously the KKR430 would be less laggier on the RB25 as it is a smaller turbz on a larger engine....

As replicate answered (cheers champ) was wondering about the KKR480 on the RB25 in a bit more detail than what is listed on their site....

KKR-480

Suitable for larger 2.5–3.0L engines, this turbo features a twin-entry T3-size exhaust flange, which is also suitable for normal T3-flange manifolds such as RB25DET or RB30ET*. Rated at 480hp, it uses the same compressor design as the KKR-430, but a larger turbine and housing better suited to high-boost applications up to 20psi. It uses a 2.75in V-band flange for the exhaust outlet.

Tested by Croydon Racing Developments on an RB25DET Neo engine, it produced 242kW at the wheels at 18psi. The standard internal wastegate is designed to hold 14–15psi.

Just trying to establish if the is much modification required to fit the KKR480 to the RB25 as there is for the KKR430 to the RB20.......

Pay an extra few $$$ and get a straight bolt-up Garret.......

Oh well such are the dilehmas of the 'turbo game'

    • The turbo can’t be the issue. They’re proven to make much much power than you’re making. There is something in the setup that isn’t correct. - has the exhaust got any silly step downs? - what exhaust manifold?
    • Ok, just the way you wrote it made it look like you had the stagger the wrong way around 
    • I was getting anxious with the DVLA not knowing if the paperwork is fine or not, so I rang them. No update had been given, but I  was reassured that providing the box was ticked on the V750 then the application will go through fine. I've been checking the DVLA website pretty much every day, in the hope that it would have been done. Fast forward to Monday 29th  and I was greeted with a new screen on the check, and it finally showed as Taxed and MOT'd, woohoo! The car was in desperate need of a clean, not knowing when this day was coming it was put off. As far as I was concerned I had another 3 weeks  I'm not normally one for using snow foam, but I wanted to give it another try It hasn't cleaned up too bad considering it's 21 years old and lived on a boat for a number of weeks. The personalised number plate is J2 XBK, an illegally spaced number plate would have it read J2X BK. BK could either represent  the colour black or Baker, which is my surname. I filmed the first drive, the Youtube link will be at the end. I used the same driving route I did with the 323F V6 when I had a new exhaust installed, heres a couple of photos A few more since then Youtube video can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjkFHPzjGDw
    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
