Integrating new ideas into ball bearing CHRAs, it is to increasing bearing speed and reducing oil drag. Prototype went in working with a SS4 turbocharger, took over a minute to shut down after engine is powered off from idle. Drives pretty good, dyno tuning tomorrow.

Alrighty, part where everyone gets excited..

Details:

  • Hypergear SS2
  • 45mm Turbosmart External Gate off Housing (thanks scotty_mn35)
  • E85
  • 1.6bar boost, made more power on 1.5bar
  • IAT shot up to 50 degrees, subsequently lost 3 degrees of timing (I take 1 degree off every 5 degrees above 35)
  • Stock motor
  • Stock manifold, stock plenum

Hey John,

was wondering...that torque figure is MASSIVE do you think its accurate?

Hey John,

was wondering...that torque figure is MASSIVE do you think its accurate?

I have noticed some big torque gains with my gate off the housing setup, enough to max Trent's hub dyno recently, putting it into emergency shutdown. lol. Power graphs only show so much, and torque graphs can't really be compared between dynos... Unfortunate.

Yeah considering how much torque changed based on gearing and wheel size it's not really a useful number.

even today someone told me his XR6 turbo made 1100nm at the wheels bro! yeah sick mate I'm sure it does next time don't use 2nd gear

no idea, but I know it's not tractive effort..

It's pretty close I'd say as based of hp = ftlb @ 5250

And at about that rpm he has around 280ish rwkw so 375 or so hp, and 375 ftlb is around 510nm and that's pretty much what he has there. So I'd say the torque figure is pretty much correct

Don't underestimate what a 4L Turbo can make.

Oh ooooh.....I think my turbo just went pop.

Stao, do you offer a drive in drive out turbo changeover service? If so, what am I looking at for an SS3 changeover into a c34 Stagea? No tune at this stage. I'll basically get a new turbo then park it up till I get injectors and get it all tuned together.

Yep, internal gate in factory position.

I want to eventually shoot for the magical 300 at the treads figure. It's not my daily so doesn't have to be the nicest thing on the road. From what I understand the SS2 will do it on E85, but I'm not sure I'll ever go E85 so I need the size of the SS3.

Happy to be corrected if this isn't the case.

There is a restriction on stock exhaust manifold, so for a standard engine running around 19psi, they usually sit around the 280rwkws figure, unless more boost is added. SS2 would be pretty nice to drive while hitting that target, SS3 is best performed externally gated, and is roughly 250RPM laggier hitting 20psi about 4100RPM. Fitting it to stock manifold running internal gate, its result would be very similar to a SS2.

And uploading one more result, It is sent in from a form member, based on a R33 GTST stock Rb25det with the usual mods. Final result of 263rwkws on 17psi.

Good thing about it is this car was dyno tuned at Trents few month before the high flowed turbocharger was installed. This is a comparison between factory 2IU turbo V been high flowed.

Hmmm....perhaps I'll settle for the SS2. I can always go the E85 path later if I reaaaaally want to hit the 300 mark.

Can you give me a price on a drive in/drive out SS2?

We only do engineering related work, when collecting the turbo I can direct you to a good mechanic whom might be close to your area.

Related, but not.

Just an fyi.

I moved my engine to another shell.

I run e85, had massive problems getting the engine running correctly.

Got the injectors checked/cleaned the other day.

2 were completely blocked with the rest being partially blocked.

Have not put it back together to test but im pretty sure thats the problem.

If anyone has major missfire over all cylinders and run 85, injectors are probably blocked, its not your turbo :P

What injectors?

Some result from Today. upgraded to a Walbro 470L/H fuel pump and EBC fitted. made 383rwkws at 21psi. This is using a prototype .82 Alpha turbine housing with a ATR45 (3582 equivalent CHRA) which seems to work pretty well that matched the same response as to a VCT Rb25det motor.

Final result compare to a GT3582R in .82 turbine on a GTR 32 (E85), and a GTST R33 using the same turbo (P98 fuel).

    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
