yes i noticed the oil once i put the pic up but no oil anywhere else, i will check it tommorow. Doesnt seem consistent with oil, looks like it may be a drip or something

There is absolutely no more area that could be taken out. its been CNC mill out according to factory gasket.

The corners of where the gaskets goes over has been tapered out and rounded off.

Its been give out as much clearance as it possibly can be inside the Nissan 6 bolt fange.

The adapter flange is pretty free flow, made no differences on dyno.

The oil must've been dropped on as every where else are completely dry unless its been sitting upright for some time.

Made pretty much no differences for the power level I've run it at. All new ones made this year are fitted with the cut out flange. How ever you are welcome to send back the adaptor to get it machined out to the current spec at no cost. Put it back on the dyno and see if that makes any differences.

Looks like you had fun getting it off, is that 3 snapped bolts still stuck in there?

How old is that version of the g3? I wonder if they are all like that?

I didnt take it off. Mate took it off his own car. Took him ages. It was funny watching him actually. I know he is gonna read this Hahaha.

Tao do ur own turbo's have this lip? Do u Think it will be a restriction?

It was heaps of fun , the snapped bolts are the easy ones , the pain in the ass one was the one that didn't snap.

I believe oil was a result of a dip from feed line when fighting to pull out of the bay.

I'm interested for some data supporting the effects from the Type B .82 rear housing working with a existing Type A .82 setup on stock manifold. My expectation would be no lose in top end power with 400RPMs gain in response, totally different drivability. This apply to All ATR43/PU high flow's .82 Rear housing including Type A FNT and older None FNT versions.

Any one whom's interested in above turbo for a Bolton setup on factory exhaust manifold is recommended to have it send in for the Type B turbine housing conversion. Unless used with an proper aftermarket exhaust manifold.

Yes I've tried that in the exact same print for the SS1PU. It became super responsive but only made 247rwkws.

That method of FNT arrangement is made to trade off top end power for response. Its fine for the Type A G3 as the power level its capable is beyond what factory exhaust manifold can flow internally gated.

Also should go back for few more dyno runs to see if the new clutch made a difference in performance. Generally there will be a difference if its is noticeable on road.

Edit: stao posted the answer

Stao, have you sold any of the new g2.5's you recently posted up results for?

I'm interested to see results on a stock exhaust manifold

Edited by Mitcho_7

Not yet. Its still on my car. The maximum it can do on stock manifold will be around the 280rwkws mark. Unless E85 which can push it further.

You seem to have become a hater of the stock manifold in recent weeks Stao. At what point do you think it becomes a hindrance and are you now recommending customers to change it?

280rwkws internally gated is about ideal. There is a noticeable difference after going to the Brea manifold. I think Trent did mention a difference between 2~3 degrees of timing in certain areas. which stock manifold would heat soak, pin with power band nosing down, while aftermarket kept on calming. making a big 330rwkws bolton turbo was a mistake.

Hoping to get that much in couple weeks from my SS2 but I've opened the manifold up a fair bit plus heaps of head work and cams. Will change manifold later if I have to but for now just want it back together

E85 will solve most of the problems. How ever its not very available at this stage.

I'm also updating the SS2's profile for better, more consistent power delivery and possibly even better response. Will have results in roughly 2 weeks time or when Trent's dyno is repaired.

*Should* have a result with my new setup tomorrow. Car is fixed and running perfectly now, will hit the dyno tomorrow. So providing nothing else goes wrong, will finally have a result.

    • I have no hard data to report, but I have to say, having driven it to work and back all week, mostly on wet roads (and therefore mostly not able to contemplate anything too outrageous anywhere)..... it is real good. I turned the boost controller on, with duty cycle set to 10% (which may not be enough to actually increase the boost), and the start boost set to 15 psi. That should keep the gate unpressurised until at least 15 psi. And rolling at 80 in 5th, which is <2k rpm, going to WOT sees the MAP go +ve even before it crosses 2k and it has >5 psi by the time it hits 90 km/h. That's still <<2.5k rpm, so I think it's actually doing really well. Because of all the not-quite-ideal things that have been in place since the turbo first went on, it felt laggy. It's actually not. The response appears to be as good as you could hope for with a highflow.
    • Or just put in a 1JZ, and sell me the NEO head 😎
    • Oh, it's been done. You just run a wire out there and back. But they have been known to do coolant temp sensors, MAP sensors, etc. They're not silly (at Regency Park) and know what's what with all the different cars.
    • Please ignore I found the right way of installing it thanks
    • There are advantages, and disadvantages to remapping the factory.   The factory runs billions of different maps, to account for sooooo many variables, especially when you bring in things like constantly variable cams etc. By remapping all those maps appropriately, you can get the car to drive so damn nicely, and very much so like it does from the factory. This means it can utilise a LOT of weird things in the maps, to alter how it drives in situations like cruise on a freeway, and how that will get your fuel economy right down.   I haven't seen an aftermarket ECU that truly has THAT MANY adjustable parameters. EG, the VAG ECUs are somewhere around 2,000 different tables for it to work out what to do at any one point in time. So for a vehicle being daily driven etc, I see this as a great advantage, but it does mean spending a bit more time, and with a tuner who really knows that ECU.   On the flip side, an aftermarket ECU, in something like a weekender, or a proper race car, torque based tuning IMO doesn't make that much sense. In those scenarios you're not out there hunting down stuff like "the best way to minimise fuel usage at minor power so that we can go from 8L/100km to 7.3L/100km. You're more worried about it being ready to make as much freaking power as possible when you step back on the loud pedal as you come out of turn 2, not waiting the extra 100ms for all the cams to adjust etc. So in this scenario, realistically you tune the motor to make power, based on the load. People will then play with things like throttle response, and drive by wire mapping to get it more "driveable".   Funnily enough, I was watching something Finnegans Garage, and he has a huge blown Hemi in a 9 second 1955 Chev that is road registered. To make it more driveable on the road recently, they started testing blocking up the intake with kids footballs, to effectively reduce air flow when they're on the road, and make the throttle less touchy and more driveable. Plus some other weird shit the yankee aftermarket ECUs do. Made me think of Kinks R34...
