hypergear Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Its very unfortunate that Brae have finally gaven up on the simple log manifold design as cyc No. 4 can not be bent that far to suit stock position. I will speak to few other welders and see what other possibilities are. But for the time been I will be assembling my car with what I've got and have that back doing its jobs soon as possible.

pipster11 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 surely you could use whoever makes your rear housings and get them to make a modified version of the cast iron hks manifold (make it so that it bolts on easily) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261613-hypergear-turbochargers-and-high-flow-services-development-thread/page/292/#findComment-6484853 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypergear Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Don't give up hope yet. Still under going negotiations, hopefully getting a better price for bulk.

wolverine Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 HG is the one that wants stock location hence the issues Brae are having, if I have read everything correctly.

hypergear Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Looks like I might have to go high mount to keep the costs down. apparently the side mount takes too much efforts to complete. There's one more welder who'm happy to give it a shot, we see how it goes.

Cowboy1600 Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 What's the verdict on opening up the stock exhaust manifold a bit? Possible? Useful? Or is that for another thread?

hypergear Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 That is a $1100 manifold, the log manifold will have 123 goes into one plus and 345 in another. How ever there isn't enough room to merge 345 as the steam pipe bends are too big. If you go back and have a look at how my manifold is constructed, there are lots of efforts and man hours spent. Yes by die-grinding stock manifold would help on picking up 17kws, pumps it to 297rwkws internally gated.

Cowboy1600 Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Do you have the ability to open up stock manifolds? If so, why not try and source say five stock manifolds, prep them and then sell them as part of a kit on an exchange basis? Charge people an extra $100 that you'll refund once they send in their stock manifold. Might be easier and a shed load cheaper than trying to get your own steam pipe manifold sorted? Just a thought.

t_revz Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 ^^^ good idea. I pulled a tonne out of mine. Surprising how poorly the ports matched the head. Plus the collector flange is much smaller than the gasket.

adam999111 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Whoever purchased a ss2 running ext gate is in for a treat. Just got my car tuned at chequered tuning Initially got 295 but wanted to be safe so turned back the timing. So final = 276rwkw 18psi tapering to 16psi Full boost at 3800 There is an abundance of wheel spin and really quick acceleration . Very happy.

adam999111 Posted August 15, 2012 Share Posted August 15, 2012 Yes, In my opinion it is still laggy. But that is greatly outweighed by the power it produces and the smile it puts on my face on boost. Mind you it has performed just as well if not better than Stao has described it would so the turbo for what it is is great. Mods are as follows Z32 3" exhaust, no cat, 1 muffler (home-made) 600x400 bar and plate cooler with return flow piping, assuming its home-brand as i only paid $50. Tial 44mm gate (17.64PSI) SS2 0.82 type b 52mm Radiator bcpr7es copper plugs DW 740cc Injectors accompanied by a Bosch 044 (intank) EVERYTHING else is standard Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/261613-hypergear-turbochargers-and-high-flow-services-development-thread/page/292/#findComment-6489418 Share on other sites More sharing options...
