Rb20 Gt2510, Anyone Had Any Experience?

[Jbone]

hey

i know alot of guys go for the gt2530 but just wondering if anyone here has used a 2510?

i dont like alot of lag and im not aiming for anything much over 200rwkw so was thinking maybe the 2510 might be better suited?

opinions?

I've seen 210rwkw, you would get a similar result from a much cheaper R34 RB25 turbo.

HKS's GT2510 was one of their older spec GT28 turbos , basically a GT2530 (60mm 63 trim compressor) but with the slightly less performance oriented GT28BB turbine . It shows the dated thinking that more restrictrive turbine would add better spool to same compressor . Later practise shows us that it takes more exhaust energy (meaning also restriction) to drive the same compressor and the hot side choking prematurely compared to a GT2530 with its more open bladed (and less blades as well ) turbine . This was why HKS turbos like the GT2510 and GT2540 were discontinued , replaced by better combinations like the GT-RS and SR20 spec GT-SS . The SR20 spec GT-SS uses the same turbine as the GT2530 but with a smaller trim 60mm compressor ie 60 vs 63 trim . What they achieved was better exhaust throughput (less restriction) and less or lower workload for the turbine with the 60T compressor which brings response up (boost threshold down) .

But we have to remember that the 34 turbo is still a ceramic turbo...so anything more than 14psi and you are looking for trouble...

Better off getting a KKR or Hypergear turbo purely over price... bang for buck can't go wrong.
