This SS profile does look real good.

But is it still at a disadvantage using bush bearings?

Can you use steel BB in it?

Just thinking about transient response, gear changes ect...

Evos use bush bearings from factory, time to get over the BB hype lol

anything you would suggest in your catalog for 400awkw in built RB26 (twins only) ?

Must have stock mounting positions.

Cheers.

You have your answer to that already...Garrett 2860 -5s...no dicking about and a proven performer...

For the 400awkws GTRs on 98 fuel, we can build 2x ATR28G2 in .64 rears with OEM pattern, they are equivalent to the -9s but would be pretty laggy for street application.

Ball bearing or not doesn’t make much difference. I would build them for my own car but not confident enough yet in selling as a product. I get few failed bb turbos send in for overhaul every week, almost every single one had shattered bearings, counted as oil contamination issue, some of them are just few weeks old. Like I said earlier, pure clean oil doesn't exist when comes to any aged engines. Reliability is most important.

But I'm doing few extra drawings based on the oil setup on the ceramic ball bearing project, I think there is a way that we can separate any objects within hot oil or at least not keeping any objects inside the bearing cartridge. I'll post it up here when ready.

We definitely need updated results on all current models, like you said current models are different to most things u can read about in this thread, yet are still called the same thing and all your advertising hasn't changed for years.

Saying that I'll gladly buy something that will push 220-260rwkw with 20 or so psi, and like factory response, like rolls turbo. Ball bearing is good, all my motors are freshly built.

Think about what the 2871R is to the sr20, and I want that for my rb20 and rb22.

I have a dyno of mine I can show you, its almost certainly done on a long time duration to inflate the response but it is on full boost (18psi) )by about 2700rpm and power starts to dip over by 6k, mainly due to boost dropping back down to 15, but I'm quite sure the compressor is out of flow by then.

In lower gears a more realistic rpm for full boost is about 3200 I would say, drives like a stock turbo but makes 236kw around high 5000 early 6000rpm.

thats my best approximation of rpm from the dyno sheet, was in kph, worked out the torque figures from the power and rpm so they might be wrong but the shape is correct, dont have a scanner unfortunately, might be able to get a shot from my webcam if anyone wants it.

I think if you can make a turbo this responsive there would be big demand hypergear, this was just made from an rb20 turbo as well with the smaller rear housing.

yeah current info would be great.

also, all your power figures are really 18psi or there abouts. realistically most people (myself included) are to keen on the idea to have a responsive turbo that requires really high boost.. do you have any dyno sheets of some of the rb25 hi flow options on 12-15psi? a much more realistic daily driver / weekend racer option.

and the 230rwkw option was from a member that posted in the rb25 dyno thread. there also seems to be alot of people with the atr28 g3 making only 200ish rwkw on 12-14psi. which is basically stock turbo region.

from what i can see id be much better off buying a larger turbo (Hypergear ATR43G2 highflow turbo (0.82ex 0.60A/R)) and turning the boost down a bit?

thanks for the answers, but more current results would be great. im keen to buy, just dont like buying blind

I don't get the point of limiting boost, they are tiny turbos so your airflow and power is not massive, as long as you keep the tune rich so the temps are down there should be no real issue even on a stock motor.

18psi on a small turbo = 12-15psi on a larger one, for a given torque figure the actual combustion pressures are always similar, the only difference is 18psi on a smaller turbo is going to mean a hotter intake charge as its at its limit of efficiency, also higher backpressure but with proper tuning this is not an issue.

I have seen too many BB turbo's destroy the rear bearing too, they cook in the rear housing and gum up with exhaust soot coming through the seal usually. Are you saying yours all fail due to the oil being contaminated? Hasn't this oil just been through the filter?

If that is the case a simple inline filter would stop all your failures right? If Garrett are using that line too, I had better put such a filter in so I have proof the oil is clean.

I have seen few burnt turbine wheels and many shattered bearings. Most of shattered bearing cartridges came from Ford XR6, Burnt wheels are generally from high flows, few GT30 and GT28. They are too thin, only made with 20 thou of materials. I casted mine in 30 thou, and I’ve never seen one got burnt.

Few of the later XR turbos blew due to clogged filters. People seems to forget about them or don't use them till a wasted turbo. I think the design isn't perfect, It’s a forced feeding system in a .7mm tube. Dirt are virtually trapped in it. My new drawing is based on slashed oil feeding system, which objects can be carried out with passing by oil. Work still in progress.

Any by the way I have one more SS profile to test, that is aimed at 250rwkws with most response, will post result in few weeks time.

The Standard high flow results are out dated, current ones will perform way better, results come in soon.

Thats pretty much exactly what i'd want, what turbo is this, and rb20 or rb25?

Edited by Lonewolf1983

That appears to be 2860RS spec turbo in side factory housing. We can also carry out that high flow. Most RB25det people are chasing more towards 270rwkws mark, its not a common profile but Can be done.

Hi, i'm after a responsive 270-300rwkw turbo, must use stock comp housing though. (for unwanted attention!)

I'm after more info on this turbo!

Larger the trim is the more vertical power behavior you get. To get a smooth build up of power you need to run a large comp housing with a small trimmed mid size comp wheel.

I wouldn't call the smoother the better. turbos do produce this vertical power increasement has a very sharp and strong punch on acceleration. while the build up turbo would give a lot smoother sort of feel.

But if you are dragging, The car that reaches peek power and torque quicker is more likely to win.

We can build them to do either, so I would say it depends on people's preferred driving ability.

I think your above power curve of the ProS is similar to this one here:

atr43G363295rwkw.jpg

Its a customized GT30 wheel running on stock cams and 98 fuel. That would be the most responsive towards 300rwkws as you can get. Car wasn't strapped down, had plenty wheel spin.

I think this definently could be your best 300rwk turbo you sell, except of course that power drops off after 5,600rpm! That power curve is insane and would make for a VERY fast streeter!

You said that it had wheel spin on the dyno, did you ever get it re-dynoed? What other reasons for the drop in power? Exhaust housing too small or out of puff?

If it could keep making power till 7,000rpm or at least hold power then I would definently be getting one of these puppies!

What are the specs? (ie wheel sizes, comp/turbine housing, ball bearing)

^^^

Above is off a KAI high flow based on a OP6 rear. Its probably due to wheel spin or dyno ramp its not as responsive as the SS with FNT technology.

You probably would refer it to:

op6highflow321rwkw.jpg

op6highflow321rwkwboost.jpg

except it would be maxing out around 300rwkws mark using stock comp housing. Car's had engine head issues during that dyno run. so the torque curve looked abit funny.

Ah, ok. So maybe that run was done with a 12sec ramp instead of 9?

The SS with FNT certainly looks very responsive, I like! But i'm after standard comp housing.

So your working on updates for your PU Hi-flow, can't wait to see results. And also as mentioned, updated dyno runs on all your current hi-flows would really be useful.

Cheers.

I've made a 3 nozzled ATR43G3 .82 turbo, installing it tomorrow. By re-directing air to a more efficient spot improves the current response and driving ability, in combination with large size housing it should produce possibly better power with greater torque.

If works it can change the current ATR43 .82 and PU high flow's power and boost behavior, making a powerful car lot more street friendly.

Installing it tomorrow, will write up some DIY instructions.

Stao, do you think your turbos would perform better if you did not modify the housing to suit skyline config?

I am very impressed with your recent SS results and am considering buying one of these for my 1JZ. I am not concerned with dump flange pattern as it will be a completely custom setup anyway.

I simply want the strongest 280rww I can find.

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • 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.
