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

mostly posting to subscribe

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.

    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
