I just brought a hypergear turbo and i have heard from people they say if you use a 3inch metal intake on the cold side of the turbo it gets the most of the power out of the turbo?

Anyone know anything about this? If so some info would be great and what i need to do it? I think there is a link on the hypergear page if anyone has it could they post it up?

Cheers

Well depends on the turbo. Intake pipe should ideally be the same size as the inlet to the turbo. So if you've got one with a 3" compressor inlet then 3" intake pipe will do, if you've got one with a 4" inlet then ideally a 4" intake pipe would get the best results. Not sure what you're asking for with "what you need"? You need some pipe and some welding skills if you want the PCV and BOV returns?

All been covered in this thread before though.

You can get Scotty or Abe2 to make an induction pipe. check page 264

Or if you have a Adaptronic or a map sensored ecu I would just run a 3inch metal pipe with a 45 degrees silicon hose and a pod.

Check page 89

You probably find all your answers on page one, I've labeled all the important discussion bits in reference and linked to according pages.

Interesting that they didn't use any correction method, I've never had a run on Allstar's dyno without SAE being used.

They only put correction on to make people feel better their car made shit power...

To my understanding that the correction method makes the HP reading true in situations that would alter the output of the actual performance levels. It is calculated based on humility, air density, temperature, and altitude. Without correction the result could significantly differ depending on surrounding environment, but not necessarily only to a more positive or negative extend.

As If I knew the dyno has no corrections then I would want to have my car tuned at night when humility is low. air temp is cold with higher air density. :whistling:

Updates:

I'm getting some steam pipe bolton manifold and high mount manifold made overseas as I'm typing. I should have a prototype received by mid next week for trailing and testing. Those manifolds will be available for $300 to our customers assume they perform as expected.

It appears a larger turbine setups would perform better on factory manifolds, I will trail a SS2 in a .82a rear housing on current std manifold for some comparison.

Checked actuator pre-load which is about 4mm but rod isn't straight so might play with that next days off. The bracket for the actuator is on a very different angle to what is required so need to modify or bend it somehow.

It has to be in a particular angle as else the comp cover will hit the manifold. I've added few spacers under the actuator between the bracket. as long as the rod is perpendicular to actuator it self it will actuate fine.

But the rod isn't perpendicular. When disconnected it sits between the 2 pins. Might try modify it so it doesn't need the washers to space it off the bracket

Rofl. Told you guys, was tied down financially.

spent the majority of my weekend motor swapping 2 s14s, on my own, to fund this. Just so I could say, told you so :P

and I told you guys I make decisions fast once I can afford to :P

Me too! I watched the entire development of the SS1 and SS1PU in this thread, I know the genuine effort that has been put into it and I know what I'm getting.

On my way to the bank now. EDIT: ANZ the lazy pricks don't open till 9:30 so. I'll be paying for my turbo at lunch :P

This will be mega.

    • Really, effort is pretty low. You hand fistfuls of cash over to someone else and pick it up when done...   And at least this shitbox isn't drinking coolant right?  
    • And most chargers that most DIY people own would put bugger all power back into the battery between cylinders. I've always done it with jumper packs/second battery connected. And that's on any car.   Because race car, and wanting the lightness.  At least in an R33, putting a bigger battery in can at least help shift the weight balance backwards  
    • OR, Tell the Motec to STFU, you said shift, so try shifting! But then yes, I agree, more sensors needed to. Put either a wheel speed sensor, or a diff speed sensor on it. Then get an input shaft speed sensor too. (I say input shaft speed, and not engine RPM). This way, you can now also log and see if the clutch is slipping (RPM, vs input shaft speed), and you can calculate gear (Input shaft speed / Output shaft speed). At least then if the gear position sensor fails you have a backup. And realistically, the Motec should only worry about what gear you're in for the parts where I'm assuming you have some power management strategies in it for the lower gears. (IE, lower boost, maybe different throttle curves, different ignition curves, etc etc). But it should stop it shifting. Pull the flappy, that f**ker should just attempt the motion! Heck, even on a sequential like on a motorbike, you can keep trying to kick it up a gear all you want, the physically part of the box takes care of not being able to loop the whole way around the box! Only part you'd have to worry is how it gets to reverse.  But that's on the driver... An R32 shouldn't be so smart as to try and override the driver on a gear shift  
    • Yeah, nah. Anyone not putting the absolutely largest battery that will physically fit (ie, NS70 X) is not thinking straight. the NS70 X is close on double the capacity of the "stock" unit.
    • Not only should you be testing compression with a strong battery, you should be putting a charger on it. These cars have pretty small batteries and it's possible to discharge them enough that by the last cylinder the starter isn't turning as fast.
