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.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
