hmm sound intresting im looking at buying one but not quite sure wat the go is

As a first approximation Rpm to reach full boost is just about inversely proportional to a/r.

So if 0.84 = 5,200 Rpm

0.68 would be close to (0.68/0.84 x 5200) = 4,200 Rpm.

Of course exhaust back pressure will be a bit higher with the smaller housing, so it will make less power at the same boost, but it will probably not be that much slower on the road, and a hell of lot easier to drive.

Go back to where you bought the turbo, and ask them what they can get for you. There are a number of housings available, 0.7 single entry, or 0.68 split pulse may be about the right sort of numbers to ask for. These are the next step down from the 0.81 single entry and 0.84 split pulse that you already have.

Great result mate and nice turbo choice...!

has anyone lined up the HKS version and garrett version for performance and heat produced etc...on the same engine?

how would the .68 housing go on an RB26? ie what rmp would it come on at and what range of power figures could you expect?

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
