No haters here...just realists...no doubt that there are some decent numbers here...the issue is with the claims of how some of these turbos offer better response and so on compared to genuine offerings...

Comparison of RPM VS Power VS Boost of some of their works with over 600 dynosheets collected for 7 years man. They are realistically outstanding. I mean there's no one ever managed to get 250rwkws with 18psi by 2500RPMS or 290rwkws with 200rwkws by 4000RPM, 320rwkws full boost by 4300RPMs, or a high flowed stockie that does 305rwkws. All with stock setup and pump fuel. If no better results are there with the same setup, then their claim aren't entirely false till some one else did better.

Garrett made their turbos to suit a large range of engines. There are plenty of room for customization suiting a specific engine setup for optimum result. That also doesn't mean what they've made would fit or runs better on other engine setups.

Like I said earlier, that sharp tip off looks like electrical caused, get that fixed, and I'm looking forward to see some results from that new ceramic BB high flow.

Ignore the pull down in the final 200 rpm, i use a 6900 rpm pull and the final roll off is just exacerbated by the dyno pulling the revs to a standstill @ 6900rpm. These graphs are just a snapshot of a few hours of dyno tuning i do a few runs going to 7250 or 7500 depending on the car and setup and in the case the car was slowly nosing over after 6800 (like most turbos in this size) so there is no point revving the bejeseus out of a car endlessly whilst tuning (and to keep well clear of the limiter)... so i clip it 100 rpm after the roll off. I will make sure the graphs in the future continue to within 50rpm of the limiter.

Im not buying into any arguments here as our dyno is only used to test each of the hypergear turbos (we dont align ourselves with any brands), but if your worried about the sudden drop off dont be its no worse than any other similar sized offering from other companies.. what is true is they prefer higher boost levels 22psi is the sweet spot for peak power, i like to run them around 18-19psi on customers cars which will see about 15+rwkw less than their peak, i find it keeps the intake charge more stable.

From what ive seen they are hard to beat $$ per HP.

We also found this same thing when tuning my RB20. Was a bit dull up to around 20psi, came alive at 22psi (like put on 30kw with 2psi) and then hit a bit of a brick wall...

Thanks to Trent to clear up the mass. After all those fuss The sharp drop around 6500 is just rev limiter related.

Also

Its due to the massive wheels inside small housings, same goes with the ct12 highflows that many companies do, all that achieves is a shit load of lag and maybe a 15rwkw gain overall for the soarer guys, because the housings just cannot flow enough air, so you stick a shit load of boost through them and all it does is superheat the intake air.

Not True. Depending on high flow specs. Its not just about stuffing big wheels in to small housings, Its about how to build a balanced charging system, and how to control boost. So far I've done few pairs but no one has yet sent in any dynosheets, Been told its very responsive. My estimate of them after high flowing is about 300rwkws.

Yeah I am still sorting some things out. As Tao said lots more to try. We also just discovered the front injector is causing a boost leak so that will need to get fixed before any more testing. I will have more results next thursday.

We have a few more wastegate settings to try as well as dropping the exhaust as its suspected to be a bit restrictive.

That 279rwkw is actually at only 15.8psi so plenty left in it.

Its a bit different to Tao's demo car cause all these things are sorted and you get a direct comparison.

Ok dropped my car off yesterday and Trent has fixed up the leaking injectors woohoo!! Thanks again Trent!

However, in the meantime I also returned to a stock intake pipe sleeved with a metal pipe. This was still sucking shut but in a different location closer to the turbo where it is still 2.5". The car still hits hard but once it hits 250rwkw the intake pipe sucks shut and it will not make any more power, the dyno is just a flat line after that even slightly reducing.

So off to get a custom intake pipe made up and I will post results after that. Should have listened to you Tao :D

A custom hardpipe is critical to making the power imo. The vacuum required to suck that hose in would be immense, plenty of power to be gained there...

Well it already made 279rwkw with a 3" intake that Tao helped me with. Only problem was it did not have the bov return and breather fitting so I tried the factory intake with some pipe but BAD MOVE!

wow, bit of a shitfight going on in here

how long until we can expect to buy the ball bearing version?

i have suspicions that my turbo has seen better days and i was hoping to get it highflowed over summer, what would you recommend for an rb25neo that has to move a stagea about daily?

long term i'd also be happy with 300rwkw too

All the argument around the sharp power drop is just the cause from from a pre-set Rev limiter. The problem was the limiter was set to cut just before the RPM range of 7000RPM on the dyno. Which "the drop" stands for a actual fuel cut or operator throttle back off. The so called "shit fight" dated all the way back to 06 with the exact people. Which I treat it as motivation for innovation of better products.

The ceramic BB turbo is still in the process of getting installed. Its a very first prototype, I will need to run few thousand Ks with some track time before confident enough to sale it.

The highest No. we've got with a OP6 rear housing high flow was 295rwkws at this stage. Its in the updated high flow menu named the "KAI" profile. So if you are after 300rwkws high flow that or the PU profile would be recommended.

thanks for the prompt reply, i read through the last 5 or so pages but i didn't note the date on the replys

300kw is a long term goal and maybe i might end up going a 25/30 to help lug the stagea around

maybe i'll hold out for the bb core to be completed, if i get a highflow it'll be limited by the stock ecu and injectors till i can afford some aftermarket items

Honestly don't know how much you're gonna hear on a video....I have some LOLiPhone in-car footage from Pat (Randon_I_am) on the skidpan where you can hear it a little bit...his is an R34 GT-T w/ 3" metal intake...

www.facebook.com/trozzle should get you my profile, I honestly don't know if you'll be able to see the video without being my friend. If you can't see my video uploads, add me. I'll accept it and then you can have a snoop.

If your final goal is 300rwkws then its recommended to go for a turbo that can archive that, so you don't have to change turbo again when you are ready for it. And it would definitely encourage to have it happen sooner. :) . I can build with a 7psi actuator, you can exchange the actuator free for a high pressure one when you got injectors and ready to tune.

For the RB30det setup I would recommend the PU high flow or an actual ATR43 G3 or G4 in .82 and .70 comp. The larger housings will definitely help with power consistency.

Little update with the ceramic BB turbo.

front.jpg.JPG

Its started run and was very quite. (I thought its going to make lots bearing noises).

oncar.jpg

I took it for a quick spin. This probably one of the fastest spooling turbo I've ever had. Lot faster then traditional steel ball bearing cores I've used. It goes from 0 to 20psi in like half a second. Was like blink of an eye you are sitting on 20psi. On switch off you can hear it spins for ages before it comes to an stop.

componcar.jpg

Its currently in a .63 OP6 turbine. Should make around 300rwkws, I'll be doing some harsh testings, hopefully it just work the way it is. Will be heading towards Status for some tuning coming week for some results. (yes I will set my rev limiter higher)

will the dual BB core be available in smaller turbo's?

Yes we can build it with any sort of wheel configurations with any housings. Will only be doing it after a lengthy test.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
