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?

    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 😋 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
    • This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
