hi guys im looking for a decent turbo for my project looking for 550-600 off a RB25DET. would be happy with 550...but want ability to reach 600

FUEL/IGNITION/management=sorted

engine= inlet -256, 8.8mm lift, exhaust- 264, 9.0mm lift

- tomei valve springs

-tomei solid lifters

-arias pistons, rings etc

-eagle rods, comes with big and small end bearings.

-metal head gasket.

-greddy plenum=about 1m+ less piping

can anyone out there recommend a turbo that would suit my needs of 550-600hp, with something that would come on boost before 4500 :S

or a smaller turbo but at higher boost?

mates reckon to twincharge= have the big turbo, but have it supercharged for constant boost. but i dismissed it as a 'more' expensive/useless approach.

Yeah id suggest the HKS T04Z with the smaller exhaust housing if you want it to spool a lot earlier. With 1.5-1.9bar running through it and the rest up to the task i dont see too much of a problem with it making around the 350-400rwkw mark. Might be pushing it for close to 400rwkw with the smaller exhaust housing though, not 100% sure cause i havnt seen to many RB25's with T04Z's on them.

Why bother getting a smaller exhaust housing to compensate for the poor choice?

No point choking the turbo down, better off getting the smaller turbo up.

The compressor on the T04Z is BIG, bigger than the GT35, choke them, and pay the price

If you must have 600 Hp then yes the GT3582R is a good off the shelf choice . Personally I think a GT3076R which is capable of around 500 on a very well developed engine is worth strong consideration .

At these levels don't forget to factor in drivline strength and sorry for being sarcastic but I think spiritual intervention is gonna be required to get this power to the ground through two wheels . It may be ok for a hub dyno but cronic wheelspin gets you nowhere .

Seriously you need 4WD and an RB26 to do it properly .

My thoughts only , cheers A .

If you are going solid top end then get some bigger lift cams to go with it

to answer your question the largest i found a s2 rb can go on intake is 256, 8.8mm lift, and exhaust- 264, 9.0mm lift.. to go bigger is near impossible to find the cams. + only the NEO can take cams with over 10.0mm lift....i checked. (bought off nengun.com)

but will do more research and if i find larger cams i will definitely get some...not really on a budget as i only have a few components left

due to research i have found some 270, 10.25mm lift on exhaust cam...so will swap that in.

also thanks for the replies guys.. i will scratch the To4z and go the GT3540.

and it is 600hp ATW.

Turbine

-Wheel: 68mm w/ 84 trim

-Housing: ar .82

Compressor

-Wheel: 82mm w/ 56 trim

-Housing: .70 ar

TIME TO MAKE SOME PHONE CALLs.

thanks... u can close this thread if u want R31nismoid.. served it purpose

for 600 atw the 3540 is the perfect choice, it will be maxed, but thats what you want out of the turbo.

thanks man....thats a relief.

im new to specific turbo jargon atm.... so all this info is awesome

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
