Yeah, these otomoto turbos are known for being very laggy for the power they produce, wouldnt recommend a VG30 turbo, just an rb25 one and get it highflowed if you wan t anymore, keep the smaller exhaust housing to move the powerband down in the rev range, still make up to about 250rwkw with a highflow

SLIDE RB25 highflow for RB20 would be the best option, price wise as well.

People have made awesome power, and there not THAT laggy..

Check out "Rb20 Turbo Upgrade, All Dyno Results" thread if your thinking about upgrading your turbo, some proven results in there.

Thanks,

i know someone who is putting 1 of these (pretty sure it was this one and not the 480) onto his rb20. he has it all on but is yet to get it tuned. will let you know how it goes. should be better than the t70 that was on there. that didn't boost till 6000rpm.

For the money i would go a highflow as well.

There is a bit of modification that you have to do to make the KKR fit.

At the end of the day its like everything else and you get what you pay for.

The KKR kits are cheap and there are people making good power with them but they do rely on there warranty to sell the product from what i can gather. For less stress i go a 20/25 highflow from Slide and do it right the first time :thumbsup:

Laggy, the same as an rb25 turbo, but bigger exhaust housing and different compressor wheel(i believe)more tuned to low boost, so when you put it on an rb20 its laggy and inefficient, heaqps better to go with an rb25 turbo, and get it highflowed if needed

Ive got a 430 on my rb20.

Had to modify the water lines, oil lines bolted up, also had to grind some of the comp cover (it touched the exhaust manifold)

i'm running gtr injectors, microtech lt12s, walbro pump, cooler, straight through exhaust, stock internal motor, no cam gears.

made 210rwkw with 19psi

i've got full boost just at 4000rpm in second, slightly earlier in higher gears.

Ive been running this power for 9 months and not had a problem. The car see's drift track too, so its thrashed fair good :laugh:

my 2c worth

Due to personal health issue's i am no longer making the highflows sorry guys.

Hopefully soon when things are sorted out i can go back to them but for now just trying to get better :(

Sorry to hear mate.

Your health is more important and hopefully you recover soon and get well..

Good luck, and take care.

Hope to see those high flows in the future :)

Thanks,

Abu

hey mate,

i just put a moc kkr430 on my r32 rb20det and they have WAY to much lag, if you gonna bomb shit outta your motor then ok, but for minor upgrades i would say go a T04E, thats what i'm getting now for mine.

but it is fun when you finally hit 4000rpm and full boost...lol

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
