Have seen stock turbo evo's do 120mph, that's a TD05H 16G.

Stao you really need to get your car out to the track with an SS2 or G3 attached. It's the only solution.

low mount or high mount hasn't got that much 2 do with it... ive seen multiple low mount setups run into the 115-120mph with 280-300kw.. its normal..

A proper aftermarket manifold with ext gate vs factory manifold. On paper the torque and power curve is very different after 5500RPMs and when driving it my current setup pulls very hard till red while it doesn't on stock. One the other hand tyres , wheels, driver skills and etc all takes effects so there are a lot variances.

Well we are not comparing to other make of cars. Trying to get my car to the drags. Not sure whats happening to calder park this days. Seems they are no longer opening for weekend drags and I've been trying to ring them for 2 weeks and no one's attending phone calls either.

All of those variables affect the end time, not really the trap speed. End of the day, my best speeds are close to that of a stock R34. The stock manifold isn't my problem. Cam timing could well be. I also think I may have been getting some slight misfire last night, I'll look into that.

Dame. Thats the closest one to the city. Where does majority of Melbourne people go for drags now?

All we need is one person to do 300kw and trap 120 with a G3 and we can make a call on this situation.

Just one result I reckon.

I'm not expecting my car to let me down. at present it has an ARP bolt snapped in the crank though, so my planned drag trip is a little delayed.

Stock manifold was 57kws behind a my current high mount setup using running the same turbocharger. It will be good if you can come for test drive with my car during your next visit in Melbourne.

If top end power and torque has nothing to do with trap speed while only decrease end time, then is there a actual connection between trap speed to the turbocharger. Or is it more gear ratio related? as in it is limited to what ever it might be on 5th gear at 7000RPMs.

Just got my car retuned today. So happy with the results!! :)

Made 38kw more with 1psi less. Then went further and the clutch started slipping *rolls eyes*

Now saving for new clutch...

It does but if you made 300rwkw youd be around 118-120mph ish and if you made 370-380rwkw you'd be at 128 mph ish

so high mount/low mount/mounted on a donkey, it doesn't matter.

Area under the curve power wise changes mph, as does response after gear change ...only on manuals though really , autos "slip" through it

Small turbos sometime run similiar/same mph traps to mid track, then fall over from the next half compared to the bigger one

Nice result Nick, now change your clutch and off to the drags :)

Stao the cars have the ability to hit 220-240km, regardless of model and gear ratio options (of the usual diff and gearbox combos available). The speed at the end of the drag strip is mostly down to weight and power. You can generally calculate what MPH should be reached by knowing those two.

What I need to see if a stock manifold IWG G3 with claimed 300kw hit 120MPH (200km) down the strip. Then I will be comfortable to say the cars with low trap speeds must have issues.

If we arent able to prove a G3 capable of 120MPH the first thing I would debunk is the FNT. Run with and without to see if there is a difference.

Seeing as you have already taken your existing turbo technology to its peak, and are getting good numbers with good response, I would say doing back to back drag runs would be your next point of call. Have a little fun while truly proving the product.

I myself am a full believer and own an SS1PU for anyone interested, I am just wanting the proof to back up my beliefs.

    • Thanks for the quick reply. To be clear, when you say turbo shuffle do you mean turbo flutter "stustustu" or referring to something else? I had thought they were the same thing. When I wrote the post my intention was to say it wasn't a flutter/compression surge sound. My understanding was that a flutter sound would be occurring when throttle is released, whereas I can keep the throttle in the same position for this noise
    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
