Hypergear Tr43hf Turbo

[joeleo87]

Hey all im thinking about buying this turbo for my skyrine and was wondering if any1 has 1, used 1?

Spool up?

solid boost through the RPM range?

cheers.

[Simon-S14]

personally i reckon tis similar to the KKR 430, i had one of these on my cefiro (rb20) and it was pretty laggy, and only made 200 rwkw... quite disappointing i thought.

[joeleo87]

lame.... what about any of the other hypergear turbos simon? will any of them be less laggy?

[Simon-S14]

mate you get what you pay for.... in the case of china/korea/asian turbos... you will get a cjheap turbo that makes som power, but doesnt spool as early, or make as muich power as a well made "name" brand turbo... its not to say the cheaper option is totally shit... but there are better options out there for a few bucks more.

check out the garret range, or even second hand HSK turbos... a 2350 would be perfect for what you want.. it will make 230 rwkw and have awesome response for the street.

[joeleo87]

if checked out the 2350, it looks good but second hand they are hard to get hold of. wat size garret should i look for simon?

[Bumblebee]

GT28RS champ, cant go wrong.

[Simon-S14]

a 2871R would be good, or a 3071R similar to what i have, but that would prob be a little on the laggy side also. Even a "discopotato" In T3 would be great on an RB20. awesome spool and decent power.

dmac_25 has just finished putting on a TR43

I went for a drive with it on 10psi and it goes alright - pulls hard from like 4,500 all the way to red line easilt

Have to see how it goes once its tuned - but PM him if you want more details

[R31Nismoid]

He has an RB25 though doesnt he?

[abu]

Standard RB20 with FMIC, GTR pump, turbo back exhaust and CEF11E remap (for bigger injectors and Z32 AFM) but they weren't on the car at the time

It looks neat though, you can't tell there is an after market turbo on there - retains all the stock intercooler piping etc

[limpus]

It might make the power but i am not too impressed by the response...remember its all about useable power...area under the curve is far more important than how high it goes...

[abu]

untuned on the RB20 with exhaust and cooler it came on full boost about 4,500rpm I think it was

Yep it is starts spooling at bout 3 hits 10psi about 4-5k rpm and pulls like a bitch all the way to the limiter

funny Simon I don't remember reading anything about you being disappointed

with the power fig and response when yopu fitted it up

guess sometimes you gotta keep your thoughts to yourself lol

2530 will eat a tr43 response wise and only make alittle less power 230ish

fullboost by 3,500 and would pull all the way to redline

I though that was alittle laggy cant imagine what 4,500rpm full boost would be like on a 20

I'd want 260rwkw min for that sort of lag

[Simon-S14]

i mentioned several times that i was never very happy with the responce on an rb20, maybe try reading harder. Power was good tho.

now that i have a good turbo... its easy to compare it to the bad ones ')

so if i had the Tr43hf on my car with a tune it the boost might come on a little faster??

Simon: First of all I don't remember that we sold you a TR43 high flowed version or if you were one of our customer at all.

We are not KKR so If you had bad experiences from other turbo suppliers please chase up with them instead.

The TR43 Hi flowed turbo developed is a High boost High Efficiency project built with 360 degrees trust bearing and a lot stronger shaft.

Supra_R32 on this forum has made 245RWKWs at 18PSI full boost at 4300 RPM with a RB20 we have made 280RWKWs with this turbo on a 1.8L CA18det !!! .

Even for a Standard TR43 we've made 190RWKWs on a RB20det with 10PSI of boost with factory every thing.

Turbo is just a compressor, If you've bought this turbo and not making power, then I suggest you to check your tunning as well as other supporting mods.

i never said i bought one, i did say that the specs look very similar to the KKR 430.

a turbo may be just a compressor, but theres sure a lot of things to get right in order for it to work well...
