OK here it is the final product/s

RB25 BB turbo

Vg30 exhuast housing

T04B vtrim Compressor

Standard ceramic turbine wheel

Turbine snout enlarged to 52.2mm

result 15psi by 4100rpm

spool starts @2000rpm goes nuts @ 3600(hello tyre fry)

Result 266rwkw @ 17psi

Or Less power Quicker response

Same specs as above with

groove in inlet (same as standard rb25 inlet)(reduces compressor efficiency)

Turbine Snout 51mm

15psi by 3800rpm

spool @ 1800rpm no sledge hammer effect like above just smooth till 3800rpm

result 245rwkw @ 10-15psi will not make more power with boost increase

# Please note these specs bring the turbo right next to the surge limit. If surge occurs it can be supassed with a Greddy E01 or dual stage rpm activated boost control, adjustable cam gear etc. I had absolutely no surge with both these specs. Every car is different however.

*The most fun I had with this turbo was with the turbine snout @ 51mm(no groove) which put it right into the surge zone. I had dual stage boost control which went from 11 to 15psi @ 4000rpm and eliminated my surge problem. Was absolutely awesome fun getting wheel spin in 4th on acceleration......on 18" 275 tyres ->not very drivable in the hills with the sledge hammer boost build. Each to there own

* This turbo will not boost more than 16-17psi due to the turbine trim. It reaches max flow around that level anyway so extra boost would have no advantage.

For those in the know a Turbonetics Super Vtrim compressor will proide 400rpm earlier boost response...Untested by myself.

Happy Boostin

hmmm i was reading about that variable housing in 21 century performance, it sounds good in theory. but to tel you the truth i have never seen on or herd of one being used on a car? it sounds amazing.

BOOSTED: what computer are you running. i have a VG30 turb on my car now and i am going to modify it very simialr to what you have done to get about a 240rwc. because i am using the VG housing with a bigger A/R, will there be a need for the groove to reduce surge?? and am i able to contor the sure as i am running a MOTEC M4?

alot of queations i know, sorry :D . thanks, jonathan

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
