Little update nothing extraordinary.

This is the first dyno result sent in by DvsJez (Great tuner) running our latest SS2 with 74mm compressor on a Auto r33. The turbo is built as a factory replacement unit internally gated.

One of the goal in the latest development was aerodynamic efficiency at reasonable shaft speed, which helps with boost control in higher rpm range, and I mentioned earlier that it required very little wastegate duty to stabilize boost.

This is running just off a 18psi waste gate pressure (normally holds 14psi on G3 and older version) with usual preload. notice there is no tapering off behavior.

its an excellent curve.

Its just a normal SS2 with bush center. VNT model's power curve will be more linear. I'm building a prototype for it to be internally gated at this stage and confident it will bereliably.

The new series of wheels are aimed at lower shaft speed efficiency. Most of my customers use them on stock engines running up to 20psi. So the aim is to produce as much flow's possible based on same shaft speed.

Comparing current SS2 results with earlier G3, its made the same amount of power on 20psi then the G3 at 24psi, if discard peek power, the G3 had better power to boost ratio after 20psi.

How ever the SS2 had better power to boost ration before 20psi. No point making a turbo producing the same amount of power at higher boost level then some thing else that can do it at lower boost level.

I can always make some thing capable of running 30psi, just ask when ordering the turbocharger. ;)

Are you able to do the TD06 with 6cm housings and internal gate? T25 flange? Just bought the forged bottom end for my Z32 and i'm not 100% decided on turbos.

I've had a 300zx to play with and any thing large is horribly laggy.

Running L2 turbine in 6cm will act like a low comp NA most of the time.

I did a lot of work for the Z shop and pretty good with Lindsay. The high flowed manual turbos works out better then the TD04s that he had in both response and power.

I can high flow your stock turbo with FNT modification and SS1 billet wheel. That should be plenty for 300rwkws+ with excellent driveability.

I'm building it to run consistent 10 second passes so after 450+rwkw.

If you wish to try it I can certainly build two billet the SL20.5 in 6cm turbine. I'm sure its going to be very laggy.

alternatively you can run two SS1PU in .64 rear. They will be more responsive option for that goal.

Video sent in from Toshi (Another Great tuner). This is a Video clip from Laurel with a Rb25det engine that we high flowed its turbocharger few month back.

Awesome work Stao! Another track car proving the reliability of your awesomeness, and this one a pro drifter!

Can't beat a reputation like that!

Nice work stao. Just another happy customer from your epic turbochargers.

Id like to go for a hta 3076r stao. But I've been thinking over the weekend that I'd prefer to support a local aussie turbo builder. What would you suggest that would be the closest match from your turbocharger selection? So something capable of 375+kw atw's with good response. Obviously on e85. Would prefer a bb turbo but it's not a must. Let me know what you think.

Cheers Josh.

Woah 375kw+ from a 3076? even on E85 I don't think I have seen any figures like that yet. Stao will definitely have a good match for you.

It's funny back in the day I always wanted ball bearing but now days I see that there is too little benefit from going ball bearing when bush bearing is generally much more reliable over the long term

If Money is not too much of a issue (still works out cheaper then the fp unit) I would highly recommend the VNT SS3 unit for some thing in this range. Just waiting for Trent to get back and I will pass on some results from it.

Yeah 375+kw from an HTA GT3076R - check out the back to back of a normal GT3076R to the ForcedPerformance HTA done by 34GeeTeeTee in this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/426059-forced-performance-hta-turbos/ - better than the GT3076R in every way, basically the ultimate RB25 turbo upgrade at this stage

Bush bearing isn't more reliable, just much cheaper to rebuild when they do fail.

Honestly none of that can match VNT models in terms of response and I can run a +2mm comp wheel to match the peek power easily. Specially when the car has cams and cam gears enhancing outcome.

I will post up results from the SS3 VNT once Trent gets back.

By understanding how both bearing setup works, I believe the bush bearing setup is more reliable, specially mine has been redeveloped. And I haven't had issues using them.

Thanks stao. Well after looking at results when they come through it may be the hypergear turbo for me. ;)

Can you pm me the price or write it up in the thread. Also as I said bb I prefer but not a absolute must.

Thanks Josh

I would hope VNT should give an advantage, it definitely looks like the VNT has an edge on spool- personally I am treating what you are doing there as R&D, I like it for sure but until decent track/drag/street kms have been done on them really it should be considered to be testing. If it turns out to be reliable, what kind of pricing would you be looking at? And would you retrofit the tech to any turbo? I can only imagine how epic a VNT HTA3582 would be on an RB25!

The new one has inverted nozzle arrangement, they are no longer fighting against exhaust flow. It will reduce the required actuation strength to minimum. This technology can be integrated to any turbine housings. I was thinking about doing few for GTRs. That way theycan run two big twins, making huge power responsively.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
