just high flow it. not much more lag than std, and mines pushing 250rwhp at 1bar. thats got the afm maxed, the injectors are prob on the edge too being a red top. strangely the std fuel pump still has some left, unless it was modified in jp. can be done for around 1k or another option is the rb25 unit with similar results but ceramic exh so itll be on the limit

A HKS2530 will give you "Plenty of performance" - around 210-230rwks

Beyond that it cost substantial $$$. What $$$ are you realistically looking at spending on just turbo???

I would love to see what a properly setup HKS2835 with manifold/wastegate/ECU/injectors/AFM would do on an RB20.

A Trust TD06L2-20G-8cm kit with manifold/wastegate is about as big as id go, any bigger and boost response may be compromised a little too much. (Lag in negligible, with boost response bumped up about 1200-1500rpm)

wat's the best turbo for the rb20det, without too much lag, fuel cut etc. and with plenty of performance??????? :burnout:

n e ideas or info wuld b much appreciated

a garrett 2871r would be in the range, a 0.63 rear housing and cranked up to 18-20psi with possibly some E85 to make it come alive even more..

there common on sr20's from what ive seen/read.

How much power are you aiming for?

They have nothing before 4 grand anyway just get a TD06L2 20G 8cm (like $799 from the kando or a billet one from hypergear), a few people have said they have moved from something like a 2530 to something larger and not noticed much difference.

But it depends what you want if you want a whole highmount setup or if you want to keep it as stock looking as possible etc etc.

You mentioned fuel cut. There's no point upgrading the ECU if you're not going to remap or Nistune the ECU at least. I'd go a Garrett GTX3067R with an ATP divided .82 housing on stock manifold modded for external gate.

That would be quite disgusting to drive until 6000. Divided housing then put it on a stock manifold, not really that helpful there

I'm assuming RB20 manifolds are the same as RB25 ones and are divided (other than the 5mm gap which can be welded up)? Why would it be disgusting until 6000? Stock manifold will have better response than aftermarket. I am referring to the new smaller GTX3067R, not a typo of a GTX3076R. The divided .82 housing has better response than an open .63. This setup would be more responsive than a GT-RS/GT2871R with the right tuning and cam gears with a fair bit more top-end potential. Why would this be discusting until 6000? Disgusting on tyres I guess haha. Edited by bradsm87

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.

      Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve.

      I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.

      No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
