Dyno didn't go the best today

On 20psi was making 250rwkw and power to limiter which was same power as before on 25psi but before power dropped off at 5600rpm now pulls to limiter

Yavuz said this turbo has more legs than the other turbo but as the boost was turned up detonation started to set in on 23psi was 263kw but slight pinging so left it at 20psi

I'm going to try the .86 rear on it in a few weeks and see how I go as he said the engine will be a lot happier with the .86rear on the higher boost pressure better

Hopefully doesn't hurt response too much but now it always starting to boost on any throttle

This is almost the same issue I had with mine. We got to 20psi but as we turned it up more it would ping straight away.

Ask Yavuz if the symptoms are the same as mine... Maybe its something in the design that Stao should be aware of.

sounds like too much exhaust back pressure, if you could externally gate this thing you would be able to add more boost (judging from the statements above)

Its on a .64 rear housing. I was on 255rwkws @ 20psi and only gained 15kws with 5psi of extra boost. Those turbines are good for the 250rwkws mark. Any thing large on the exhaust end would hurt response by a lot for the SR20det specially without VCT. Ideally they are best working on a variable turbine geometry. Still work in progress at current stage.

Or a noisy dirty gate :yes:

If I reach 270rwkw I will be happy as now if he upped the boost he said he had to remove a lot of timing to the point that it made the same power up top with less boost and more timing

It was

So hopefully with the .86 rear the engine can breathe better and won't knock with 20+psi and the timing can be added back in

Was yours with the .64 rear aswell ?

Yeah mine was a .64

At the drags I bumped the knob on my EBC shifting to 3rd and got 23psi. It pinged really loud in 4th but went over 119mph lol (117mph @ 18psi real power roughly 238kw)

Get that issue resolved and there is a lot more power stowed away.

Another option is run the ATR28G3 turbine wheel. This is also a customized turbine wheel that I've made to suit a T28x bearing housing originally for high flowing Stock T28. This CHRA isn't very popular on the CA/SRs how ever used often on the CT20 Supra twin high flows.

It appears to be 500RPMs laggier on paper when its first trailed in 2009. Now using FNT turbine and SS1.5 billet comp wheel I might be able to gain 300RPMs in response to what it was, using a .64 turbine getting 20psi by 4000RPMs while not chocking the SR20det motor in upper revs. Will update photos once its been made.

Yeah but is it the turbine chocking the engine or turbine housing ?

As the turbine housing ar is the measurement of the turbine housing inlet so wouldn't that the first bottleneck for the engine ?

I'll still give the .86 a try on my car to see how it goes but are you going to try the atr28g3 turbine on the ss1.5 ? Also what size is it and you got your s14 engine fixed yet ?

Unlikely to be chocking, just like high flowing a small R33 turbocharger using factory housing and get full potential of that. I just didn't like lag.

I've fixed the timing chain, and ordered a brand new VCT cam gear form US. Will be back on the dyno very soon.

OP6 and 21U run the same high flow profile. and makes about 30kws differences in power.

Run larger wheels also has a "bigger housing" affect. Means it enables the housing to discharge air faster, less back pressure, less heat. On the same time needs higher velocity to spool. Which is lag. Just like as if I can drop in a GT35 turbine in a .64 rear it will be making 300rwkws+.

Ok I get you as the turbine wheel is bigger the bore for its much bigger and it needs more gas to turn it so less back pressure

If I get the 20-30kw gain I'll be happy as my injectors will be maxxed anyway thanks

From what I've read in the past the 76 trim GT28 turbine works alright in the matching 0.64 AR GT28 turbine housing but can have response issues in the larger 0.86 GT28 housing . When you team this up with a 2L four banger the "time to torque" gets annoying when you want grunt now .

IMO the turbine has to spin fast enough to run the compressor in its useful speed range and not create too much resistance to flow - with the engine in a boosted state .

Some claim that using the larger 0.86 housing slows the exhaust velocity too much and the turbine/compressor speed is less creating lag .

I had one on the old GT2860RS (FJ20) but these have relatively small 60mm OD compressors which didn't need much turbine power to spin up anyway . The theory here was low exhaust pressure when running in a supercharged state possibly maxing the small compressor but power out of these wasn't that high .

Now days similar or slightly larger diameter GTX etc billet compressors get more out of that turbine but eventually it becomes the limiting factor .

A .

Well the ss1.5 is fitted with a 68mm compressor not the usual 71mm used in the gtrs or larger so will see how I go with the .86

I won't be able use the full potential of it with a g3 turbine as my injectors are too small anyway

Sorry I didn't get any names in the package, I assume you are the guy from WA correct? if so then yes it has been received. just more power in this upgrade?

    • Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.
    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
